This car is low mileage for a 2002, is in good mechanical condition, but it has a number of things that need attention. Rather than refurbishing the car, I am selling the car As Is. This car is in Alpharetta in suburban Atlanta and is available for inspection or test drive at your convenience. Here's a summary:
Good Things: Engine runs well and always starts easily. Automatic Transmission is fine. Air Conditioning works. Electric windows and door locks all work (driver's window switch is a little floppy). Radio/cassette/CD works fine. New battery this week. Alloy wheels are in good condition, although one is in the trunk with a flat tire. Three tires have very good tread, but the tire/alloy wheel in the trunk may have a sidewall puncture. Body has no serious damage or dents, but there are some dings and scratches. Handbrake works fine. There is no odor in the car, and the car hasn't been smoked in. I have both original keys. I have a new, clean title. No sign of rust anywhere, and I just cleaned the whole car thoroughly.
Bad Things: Paint on most of the horizontal surfaces is in bad condition, except for the hood, which is in good condition. See photos. Passenger side mirror is cracked and is missing glass. Paintwork below mirror is damaged where it looks like the mirror dangled. Floor mats were shot so I pitched them, but carpet is good underneath. Passenger seat fore/aft adjustment is balky. Left tail light housing is cracked. Righ rear stop light is out. At 40 mph and higher, the car runs fine, but there seems to be some sort of extra roaring noise like the car is in too low a gear, but the tach seems to read normally. Some of the vacuum hoses on the top of the engine were replaced with stock rubber hoses and couplings (roadside, probably) and don't look Factory. Glove box handle is missing.
Brake story. This is my son's car. One day last September he found he had an impossibly hard brake pedal so he had the car towed home, parked it, and borrowed my truck. Well, eight months later I diagnosed the brake problem as two deteriorated vacuum hoses to the Brake Booster. I replaced the hoses and the brakes worked normally, except the pedal was a bit hard at very low speed. I took it to my local NAPA repair shop, and they found another deteriorated hose annd replaced it. Now the brakes feel 100% good at 10 mph and above, and 90% good below 10 mph, as the pedal is just a bit harder than stock at parking speeds. By the way, after sitting for eight months the car started immediately on the first turn of the key after I fitted a fresh battery.

Volkswagen Golf Wagon caught completely uncovered
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Without a lot of information to go with them, our camera-toting spies have captured some new images of a Volkswagen Golf wagon variant that is almost completely undisguised. In fact, the one piece of camouflage on the tidy wagon would probably have gone unnoticed to most casual viewers. Look closely at the rear three-quarter view of the car and you'll notice that the apparent taillight clusters are actually fakes - the outline of the real units is faintly visible behind the blue bodywork and the sticker-like fake taillights.
It's a good guess then, that this Golf wagon (called a Golf Kombi by our spy photographer) is a prototype that's pretty far along in the development cycle for Volkswagen. We can't be sure what impact this will have on the company's small wagon offering here in the US, but we'd be pretty surprised if something very like this didn't end up as the next Jetta SportWagen. We might well have more information on that front, after we visit Geneva next week.
VW outsells GM in China for first time in 8 years
Fri, 26 Oct 2012In case you didn't know, Volkswagen is hell-bent on becoming the largest automaker in the world. The German carmaker has inched closer to that goal, having outsold General Motors in China last quarter for the first time in eight years.
Volkswagen's sales in China, its largest marker, increased by 21 percent last quarter to 704,991 units. Those numbers almost tripled GM's third-quarter growth, and were enough to beat out the American automaker's 664,765 sales. GM, however, still leads in year-to-date sales in China by a slim margin of around 77,000 units. The Asian nation also happens to be GM's largest market, and according to the report in Automotive News, China's car market may grow to be larger than the US, Japan and Germany combined in three years' time.
About the news his company was bested in China by VW last quarter, GM CEO Dan Akerson is quoted saying, "It's not whether you're the biggest car manufacturer. It's whether you want to be the most profitable." It should be noted of these figures that GM includes truck figures, yet excludes Hong Kong and Macau from its Chinese sales numbers, while VW does just the opposite. Through September of this year, Volkswagen had 5 of the 10 best selling vehicles in China. GM boasted three of the cars on that list.
Volkswagen says goodbye to Eos, Routan in 2015 updates
Wed, 23 Jul 2014Usually automakers announce changes to their lineup individually on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis, but sometimes it all comes at once - especially when the changes are ones we either expected or might not otherwise notice. That's the path Volkswagen has gone with changes to its US lineup for 2015.
The biggest change is what we already knew: that the new Golf arrives for the 2015 model year, bringing with it the new GTI, Golf R, e-Golf and Golf SportWagen (to replace the previous Jetta wagon). But there are some new details as well.
For starters, Volkswagen has finally confirmed that both the Eos and the Routan - both long rumored to be on their way out - will be exiting this year. The Eos hardtop convertible, pictured above, will linger for one last year, its Sport trim replaced by a new Final Edition with 18-inch wheels, two-tone leather interior and enhanced equipment.
