1999 Vw Cabrio For Restoration on 2040-cars
Seattle, Washington, United States
I've been in the car restoration business for 40 years and bought this last October to restore and sell this summer; however the employee who would have done most of the work got sick and couldn't work. I wear about 40 hats in the business so with my other projects have not gotten around to it and am not going to. I mention I've been in business for 40 years to convey the idea that I know how to pick the easy & profitable restorations. In any case this has the 2 liter engine, which was running well when purchased; however doesn't seem to want to start now due to the factory alarm shutting things down. the car drove well with the exception that it didn't want to go into a couple of gears-originally I thought it might be the linkage, now think the tranny may need changing or rebuilding. The body is quite straight and rust free. The top is good, but it will need a back window. the interior has some split seams which can be sewed easily. While maybe not for the faint of heart or totally inexperienced it would be a shame to junk this car. As a bonded Washington dealer the purchaser is gauranteed good tittle to this car. Washington residents must pay sales tax & transfer fees as well as signing applicable transfer documents out of state residents have no taxes to pay,but do have to sign the appropriate sales documents and unless stated other wise all vehicle sales are as is. Contact is required with in 48 hours and a 20% downpayment is due in 3 days with the balance due with in 10 days of the auction end. Transportation at purchasers expense can be arranged anywhere in the world. I'm getting rid of 40 years worth of cars, parts, Motorcycle stuff, automobilia, and antiques so check out my other auctions most of which are no reserve & free shipping

Volkswagen Passat gets Wolfsburg Edition, priced from $23,495*
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Volkswagen has just announced a new Passat Wolfsburg Edition, which slots between the base S and mid-grade SE trims in terms of content and price. The automaker has not released any official photos of the car as of this writing (aside from the badge shot you see here, of course), but the Wolfsburg Passat will be visually set apart from the rest by a unique set of 16-inch alloy wheels.
The big host of upgrades for the Wolfsburg Edition are found inside, where buyers will enjoy standard amenities like leatherette seats (with bun-warmers on the front chairs), a power driver's seat, satellite radio and a media interface with iPod connectivity. Of course, this comes on top of the already standard Passat features like Bluetooth and auto on/off headlamps. The Wolfsburg Passat will only be available with the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.
Look for the 2013 Wolfsburg Edition Passat to hit dealerships in the very near future, priced from $23,495, *not including $795 for destination. Have a look below for Volkswagen's official press blast.
Lamborghini and Bentley may hold off on SUVs so VW can conserve cash
Thu, 11 Oct 2012After surveying the European economic scene, Volkswagen may have decided now is not the time to launch utility vehicles with Bentley and Lamborghini badges. Bentley officials say they will continue to push for support for the EXP 9 F and Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelman has said planning for the Urus will continue until VW tells it to stop.
That decision could come on November 23, when VW's board will vote on the company's budget for equipment, factories and vehicles. With VW's sales slowing and the Euro economy slumping further, some industry watchers say the company is more likely to build its cash reserves than to introduce super-expensive luxury SUVs or crossovers.
"Such vehicles are anything but obligatory during a crisis," says Frankfurt-based Equinet AG analyst Tim Schuldt in a new Automotive News Europe story. "Delaying their launch would be no drama but help save costs."
Volkswagen shows off performance-ish Passat concept
Mon, 14 Jan 2013As part of its 2013 Detroit Auto Show debut package, Volkswagen has rolled out a sportier version of the Passat sedan, though it's strictly conceptual for now. A small dose of go-fast visuals have been added to the handsome Volkswagen, including 19-inch wheels, carbon-capped mirrors, an advanced front lighting system, LED taillamps and dual exhaust. Some carbon bits and upgraded leather are found inside the cabin, as well.
But the real performance chops come in the form of a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that sends 250 horsepower to the Passat's front wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. That's a good boost in power over the 170 hp of the base 2.5-liter inline-five, but not quite as potent as the 3.6-liter VR6. A lowered sport suspension and revised electronic steering are also on hand, making things slightly more involving out on the road... we assume.
It's not quite the performance concept we were hoping for, but a more enthusiastic Passat isn't necessarily a bad thing. Scroll down for the press release.
