1998 Volkswagen Passat Glx Sedan 4d on 2040-cars
Millbrook, Illinois, United States
I am the second owner of this vehicle. It has been family owned, it is a good performing car.
If you put a little work into this vehicle it will be a very nice car. Pros: The engine runs strong. The body does not have any rust. It has never been in any type of serious accident. Moon roof works and does not leak. Heated seats work. All the power windows and door locks work. Key fob. Installed a new AM / FM / CD Player radio with 4 new speakers. Still have the original radio (included). The wheels are in good shape with just some slight rust here and there. The frame is solid. Big trunk and seats fold down for added room. Includes full size spare tire and jack. Air Conditioning and Heat work. Floor mats included: Front and rear. Cons: The cruise control does not work. The blinkers / flashers do not work. This might be a recall issue. The transmission, when cold, shifts hard between 1st and 2nd gear. Once warm the transmission works fine. The drivers side floor has some tears and one hole in the carpeting, it does not go through the floor board. Numerous small scratches around the vehicle. The bottom plastic air dam was removed, and a temperature sensor hangs loose underneath the front bumper. You could keep it taped or tucked in as necessary. The driver side interior door handle is cracked and needs a new plastic insert. The front window molding is old and cracked but does not leak. The interior is stained in some areas (see pictures). Thanks for looking at my vehicle. Have a nice day. |

VW budget sub-brand stuck in limbo over VW standards, costs
Sat, 01 Mar 2014Reports in October 2012 claimed Volkswagen had begun investigating the creation of its own budget brand. This came after having failed to purchase Malaysian car company Proton or produce a meaningful partnership with Suzuki, and after watching Renault-Nissan make piles of euro on Dacia and plot the return of Datsun.
For VW, more important than the question of what to call it was how to build it profitably and in a way that didn't damage the VW brand. According to a report in Autocar, a satisfactory answer still hasn't been found. The hurdle is how to hit "'necessary' quality and safety levels" at the price points needed to make the venture worthwhile. At the time of the 2012 report, German outlet Der Spiegel said VW was trying to get prices down to 6,000 to 8,000 euro ($7,784 to $10,379 US), about two thousand to four thousand euro under the price of the VW Up and in line with the cost of a 6,790-euro Dacia Sandero in Germany.
In March 2013, VW announced, "We want to bring a true budget car to the market in China in the foreseeable future," the most concrete move in that direction after years of planning to make a decision. Working with local Chinese maker FAW, it was predicted that the vehicle in question would appear around 2016, but as of November last year a final vote on it needed to wait until this year because "We are still working on the cost side" and profit possibilities for a car that "has to be durable, it has to be precise, it has to be safe."
Volkswagen Golf R Evo may debut at Beijing Motor Show
Thu, 23 Jan 2014If a report in Auto Express is correct, a lighter, faster brother to the Volkswagen Golf R will be shown to the world at the Beijing Motor Show in April. Said to be called the Golf R Evo, the even harder hot hatch would be unveiled as one of those concepts that's practically a de facto presentation of the genuine thing. The Evo in its name will come from having a carbon fiber roof and CF in the bodywork, lighter wheels, thinner bucket seats up front and a roll cage instead of rear seats.
If there's a power increase, it's been described as "a small bump." However, as the report mentions, if the Jenny Craig regimen can drop 100 kilograms (220 pounds) from the the 3,247-pound weight of the European Golf R, then the Golf R Evo will do about the same damage on the scales as the Golf but have at least 50 more horsepower and 44 more pound-feet of torque.
Since we still don't have the current Golf, this isn't something that should keep you awake even if the 'concept' does become a production model. But it is good to know that the Golf R is really going to start pushing its boundaries.
Volkswagen Golf Wagon leaked ahead of official unveiling
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Wagons 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.
