Beachwood, New Jersey, United States

 Hi! This has been my all time favorite car but I needed something larger! I am a grandma, so you know it wasn't driven hard :)  Smoke free.  I have owned it for 6 years and a lot of great memories!  The biggest thing I remember is the great gas mileage.... I got between 35 and 48 mpg!!!!  It is a Diesel and uses diesel fuel.   I have always maintained the car with regular oil changes and always repaired or replaced what it needed to run well.  I put 4 new tires on it last Aug and rear brakes.  The car is not perfect, it is 9 years old, so it has it's little dings and scratches, but overall, looks good!  A couple years ago, I was on my way to work, stopped at a light, and was doing something that caused my foot to slip off the brake..... my poor car rolled into the truck hitch in front of me at about 3 mph.... not a scratch on his but mine needed a nose job (if you see an accident report on this car, this was it!!)  I had it professionally fixed, good as new!!

  I know it sounds like a lot of miles but these diesel cars last much longer than gasoline cars, 157,000 miles is nothing on a diesel engine!!

 I love the sunroof!! and heated seats in winter!!  The back seats fold down and really has quite a lot of room.... I recently fit a Husky tool chest in there, and my son and I have slept in the back!!  lol

I believe my reserve is lower than KBB!  Pictures attached... any questions or need more pictures, just ask!! Live nearby? C'mon over and drive it!!

$1,000 due within 48 hrs of auction close.  Balance due in cash within 7 days of auction close (unless agreed upon differently)

I reserve the right to end the auction early if I sell it locally.

Volkswagen looking to acquire Proton, Lotus?

Thu, 26 Jul 2012

Let's say you're an automaker bent on world domination looking to grow your sales. That's going to have you looking at Asian markets, because that's where some of the biggest growth has been, and that's exactly what Volkswagen is doing as it considers making another run at Malaysia's Proton.
Reuters reports that Volkswagen is interested in at least a partial stake, if not a controlling interest in Lotus-parent Proton as a way to continue a production presence in the region without having to build its own factory.
Volkswagen already builds the Passat in a DRB-HICOM facility in Pekan, Malaysia, and plans are in place to build the Jetta and Polo there, as well. With both southeast Asia and its relationship with Proton figuring so importantly in Volkswagen's plans for expansion, buying into Proton can help ensure stability. Volkswagen is being tight-lipped about the whole idea, but CEO Martin Winterkorn did recently say, "it's our clear goal to continue the successful (expansion) course of past years with great dynamics and stability," which sounds an awful lot like deals are on the table to smooth the path to further growth.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.

Former Porsche CEO Wiedeking indicted over VW takeover bid

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

Do you recall the failed efforts by Porsche to take over Volkswagen? According to a Bloomberg report, former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above) and ex-CFO Holger Haerter have finally been charged with market manipulation over the exercising of options as part of the German sportscar manufacturer's ill-fated attempt to take over the much larger VW. That failed bid eventually resulted in the reverse coming true - VW swallowing Porsche.
The charges leveled by Stuttgart prosecutors come after a three-year investigation centered around allegations that Porsche execs made a concerted effort to increase the company's share in VW to 75 percent in preparation for a hostile takeover. Porsche had previously told its investors on at least five occasions that it had no intention to buy VW.
Portions of the investigation have subsided, according to prosecutors, citing an inability to prove certain improprieties with a "necessary degree of certainty." The number of charges is down to 5 from a previous 14 counts regarding "information-based market manipulation."
