This 2003 GTI VR6 was special ordered and purchased new in December of 2002.  I have been the only owner and the only driver.  For 2003 the VR6 engine was re-engineered and the horsepower was increased from 180 HP to 201 HP.  The manual transmission was also upgraded from a 5-speed to a 6-speed.  So this car is very economical but also very powerful and responsive.  It has all the options available that year:  The Monsoon Sound System, heated leather seats, tilting and sliding moon roof, adjustable steering wheel, a/c, etc.   It has always been garaged and meticulously maintained.  The mileage is low because I drive a company car during the week.  It has had two big 30,000 miles services (based on time, not mileage), and has always had synthetic oil changes every 3,000 miles.  Recently one ignition coil went bad, so we replaced all six. It has never been in any accidents, not even a minor fender-bender, and has never been to a body shop (please see my complete list of all scratches and dents along with corresponding photos).  If you have any questions, or if you'd like additional photos, please contact Peter Scott by email or at (415) 292-3623.

The car is in excellent mechanical condition and has never had any service problems.  There is a full-sized spare wheel and tire and the original factory jack.  The Experian Auto Check Title Report is provided with this ad.  Following here is a list of dings and scratches.  Please see the corresponding labeled photos.

There are small scratches on three of the four rims.

There are “parking lot” scratches on the body-colored protective strips of both doors.

There are scratches on both bumpers.

There are small scratches on both rear view mirrors.

There are small scratches on the right rear area of the roof.

There is a small scratch on the rear door.

There is a small dent (hard to see in the photo) in the right rear corner panel.

The plastic hinge for the center console lid is broken.  But the lid still snaps into place and holds securely

The retractable strings for the rear cargo cover are missing.  They are supposed to automatically lift the cargo cover when the tail gate is opened.

The front tires have a few thousand miles left on them and the rear tires are almost new.  

There is one remote key/transponder and two valet keys.

Volkswagen Golf Wagon leaked ahead of official unveiling

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

Wagons ho! These three images of the upcoming Volkswagen Golf Wagon have leaked online ahead of the car's official debut, which may very well be at the Geneva Motor Show. Looking over the photos doesn't really bring any surprises - after all, this is a VW Golf with a wagon rear end grafted on, or basically what we expect next Jetta SportWagen will be.
We can only share these three images at this time, but fret not, folks. There's little doubt that all the details and images will be flowing from Volkswagen in short order. In the meantime, click on the images above to view them in high resolution.

VW promises 7-seat CUV for America in 2016

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

On the eve of the Detroit Auto Show, Volkswagen chief executive Martin Winterkorn has confirmed the imminent arrival of a new crossover. The model, previewed at the same show last year by the CrossBlue concept pictured here, will be unique to the North American market when it arrives here in 2016. The new three-row, seven-seat crossover is part of an ambitious expansion plan on the part of Volkswagen and Audi in North America, where the two brands aim to sell a million vehicles by 2018.
That's a mighty big increase over the 600,000 vehicles which the Volkswagen Group sold here last year, but it's moving in the right direction: That number is already a 100-percent increase of what it sold here just five years ago. At that rate, VW should have little trouble meeting its goals, particularly with the arrival of the new crossover and the introduction of Golf production at its assembly plant in Puebla, Mexico. Read the full statement below for more.

Former Porsche boss Wiedeking won't face criminal charges over VW bid

Mon, 28 Apr 2014

Hedge fund managers have been suing Porsche for years now, alleging that the car company lied about its intentions during its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen, a gambit that caused them billion in losses. Over the same period, authorities in Stuttgart built a criminal case against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above, left) and Chief Financial Officer Holger Härter (right), filing charges in December 2012. When those fund plaintiffs lost their most recent court case, one of the dimming lights in the dark and receding tunnel was that the criminal investigation might unearth more evidence about Porsche's actions that could help the plaintiffs in pending litigation.
Bloomberg reports that another light has gone out, though, with a Stuttgart court dismissing the market manipulation case before going to trial because, as a court spokesperson said, "there wasn't enough evidence backing up the charges." When prosecutors get the files back from the court, they have a week to decide to refile, but unless they've been sandbagging evidence that could bolster the case, the only lights at the end of the tunnel will be those welcoming Wiedeking and Härter back to the world of legally unencumbered men.
