First, if you don’t know allot about the Phaeton here is a link to a thorough review:

www.acarplace.com/reviews/2005/phaeton.html

THIS IS A EXTREMELY RARE, SUPER LOW MILEAGE 2004 aubergine nocturne Volkswagen Phaeton.  I am the proud third owner of this beautiful VW vehicle.  The Phaeton just passed PA emissions and inspection last week.  I planed on trading the Phaeton in on our the new vehicle for our family, but I feel based on the service history, extraordinary low mileage, great condition, color combo rarity, and care put into this vehicle the dealerships offer of $10k trade was quite low and I could do better selling it outright. 

How rare you ask?  Well, there is only ONE, YES ONE aubergine nocturne for sale in all of North America with lower miles (51,000).  TOTAL, there are only THREE Phaetons under 60,000 miles for sale in NA, with the lowest asking price at $19k.

It goes without saying that a vehicle with low of mileage rarely comes along.  Better yet, it will easily qualify for a extended warranty.  For instance, when we bought the car a couple years ago we purchased a extended warranty for just over a grand, and it was good for 5 years, or 100 ODO.  This existing warrenty we have may be transferable to the new owner, but we will have to check on that and can't guarantee it will.    

That being said, within the last 3,000 miles the following items have been serviced by our local Audi/VW dealers certified Phaeton technician:

  1. Factory wheels have been chromed.  Yes, these are OEM Phaeton wheels that are load support bearing for the extensive weight of this vehicle.  This is the only Phaeton I have ever seen with chrome wheels and it really completes the high end look.
  2. Transmission mechatronics unit was replaced
  3. All transmission fluids flushed
  4. Two rear window regulators replaced
  5. Rear factory door speaker replaced
  6. Oil & air filter changed on schedule
  7. Billet aluminum oil cap (A MUST for changing oil since the factory plastic one can strip!!!)
  8. New brake pads front and rear
  9. New spark plugs
  10. 4 New all Season Michelin Tires
  11. New wiper blades
  12. New HID headlamp Bulbs
  13. Both batteries in the rear replaced with heavy duty AGM batteries
  14. LLumar (very light) window film
  15. All season VW factory Phaeton front floor mats (very hard to find)
  16. All season rear long wheel base floor mats (very hard to find as well)
  17. 70% window film all around
  18. Refrigerator Cool Box upgrade in rear center arm rest (REALLY NEAT FEATURE)!
  19. All CD-roms for the navigation are available, including the compatible 2013 BMW update CD-roms.
  20. Finally, the car has adjustable billet aluminum lowering links from the UK.  The factory arms have been kept as well for the new owner.  Lowers the car 2”-3” for a nice clean look.

To the very best of my knowledge, all electronic features work on this vehicle (i.e. interior lights, buttons, mirrors, etc.).  In addition, there is practically no wear on any surfaces, and even the driver seat looks great (i.e. the love handle rubbing from getting in/out is about 95% non existent).  In full disclosure, the only item that requires attention is the windshield washer squirter since it is not pushing out enough fluid (i.e. loss of pressure in the line somewhere, but the motor sounds strong).  Perhaps the nozzle need replaced or lines checked?  Should be a simple fix for someone handy so I will not attend to it before selling at such a low price due to the hassle.  Otherwise, all she needs is a good home and caring new owner. 

Good luck and happy bidding!  Feel free to contact me for a phone number to discuss through ebay too.  I AM NOT DEALER, and tire kickers not appreciated. NO TRADES, again, only selling to do a little better than the dealer trade in offer and get quick cash.  Clear title, but note…the lein has been paid off as of 1-10-14, but it may still show since the title is in process from our financial institution to us.  Please, do not let this become a concern, we will verify the lien is paid in full for interested parties.  All factory VW service receipts dating back to around 2007 included in sale as well. No pets, no smoking, no odors, garage kept.  Exceptionally clean throughout. THANK YOU!!!!

I reserve the right to end the auction early, so if interested, please make me a (reasonable) offer.

Last VW bus ever made arrives at final destination

Fri, 31 Jan 2014

A Brazilian politician tried to save it, unsuccessfully, so the final Last Edition Volkswagen Type 2 Kombi was produced on December 20, 2013 and now resides in a vintage museum at Volkswagen's Commercial Vehicles HQ in Hanover, Germany.
The Volkswagen Microbus was built for 56 years, starting in September 1957. Brazil was the last country still assembling it, but new safety regulations in the country requiring airbags and ABS on all cars spelled the end. When that politician introduced a bill that would pardon only the 'Bus from a death sentence, it couldn't garner the required number of votes for passage. The South American country takes the Kombi production title, though, with 1.5 million of the 3.5 million total made in the home of Copacabana beach and the girl from Ipanema.
The VW Bus is dead. Now perhaps we can turn our attentions to the still-not-totally-settled matter of the Bulli...

Prop-driven VW Beetle hopes to land in Bonneville [w/video]

Thu, 10 Jan 2013

Sometimes you meet folks who, when they tell you "Hey, I have an idea," your reflex response is to stop what you're doing and tell yourself, "Get ready...." We imagine Mike Niemans is one of those folks, and the idea in question is putting a tank engine on a Type 1 Volkswagen Beetle. Not just any old tank engine - as if there were such a thing when we're talking about putting them in cars - but a 668-cubic-inch, 220-horsepower radial engine built by Continental in 1941 and procured from an M2 tank.
In the image above Nieman is using the tank clutch hub to get the motor set up, but in one of the images below you can see what really belongs back there is: a two-inch, reverse-pitch prop taken from a wind generator. He says there's enough mojo with the propeller action to get the car rolling down the runway like a jet when he gives it gas - and speaking of gas, the engine's been refitted to run on propane.
After a few safety tweaks Nieman's going to take the matte-black Beetle to Bonneville, "put the prop on, let her go and see what happens!" We can't wait to see the video of that. There are two shakedown videos below to get you ready.

World Car Of The Year down to its final four

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


Judges for the World Car of the Year Award have narrowed down the finalists to just four vehicles. Out of a total of 42 entries, only the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT-86 and Volkswagen Golf remain standing. For Volkswagen, this marks the second consecutive year the company has had an entry among the finalists, and the fourth time since 2009. In order to qualify, a vehicle must be on sale on two continents during the span of time between January 1, 2013 and May 30, 2013. A panel of 66 journalists from 23 countries then vote on the finalists.
Three vehicles have made the cut for the last round of voting on the 2013 World Performance Car as well, with the Cayman/Boxster and FR-S/BRZ/GT-86 running against the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Meanwhile, the Renault Zoe, Tesla Model S and Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid are duking it out for the World Green Car Award. Finally, the World Car Design of the Year Award is up for grabs between the Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, and the Mazda6. Check out the full press release below. Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.
