1980 Diesel 1.5 L Rabbit/Caddy Pick up. No reserve auction. Highest bidder gets it. these are the legendary early 45 to 50 mpg Diesels that VW produced This pick up runs good, is the LX version, was set up for AC (compressor/dryer, most hoses intack) but the Condensor is missing and the return hose. Also, has none of the rust issues associated with these models. Towers are solid. Car tracks true, with really good tires and spare, stops true, and the e brake works great. 4 speed. Goes thru all the gears clean, and for a 1.5 winds up pretty quick. Don't expect to race, she's built for mileage not speed. Has the LX silver/gray color with the red interior. All of it looks original. Paint is chipped an dinged here and there. I can't find any evidence that the car has ever been hit. Bed is ok, some lumps here and there, nothing major, and tail gate is a bit loose, but closes fine and is ok for a driver. All the lights, turn signals etc. work. I have changed the oil, fuel, air filters. Changed the oil and the gear oil in the gearbox. Put a new belt on it, and timing plug, along with new battery cables. Couple of things that don't looks stock to me is a solenoid powering the glow plugs, and an in line fuel pump. (Makes bleeding easy tho) and the previous owner who had several said he puts in line fuel pumps in all of his cars. I also bought a new timing belt, tensioner, set of front seals, water pump and gasket along with a valve cover gasket. They're all new and still in the box. I read the manual (included with sale) that it was wise to change the timing belt, and if you changed the belt, the tensioner, front seals and water pump as they're all behind the belt anyway. (these are new in the box and are also included in the sale). The original timing belt looks good, water pump runs cool and doesn't leak, and none of the seals leak, I was just going to reset the clock. Anyway, it's a good solid example of this car, not fast, but, solid, dependable and the mpg is legendary. Clear title in my name. Car is sold "As is, Where is" On Oct-19-13 at 04:24:17 PDT, seller added the following information: I forgot. the dash is vinyl and cracking, thus the dash mat. Rest of the interior is original and in really good shape for a 30 plus your vehicle. Misc. odds and ends go with car. Comes with a spare transmission, dash, manual, clutch cable. Car is located in Dixon, Missouri. 65459 Shippers are a dime a dozen. Google car shipping, and you will get a ton of brokers, but shipping is the responsibility of the new owners. I have plenty of room and can hold it for an agreed amt. of time after payment in full. |

Volkswagen New Midsize Coupe Concept is an aspirational Jetta
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Meet the Volkswagen baby CC. Okay, that's not really it's name (VW calls it the New Midsize Coupe Concept), but this sleek, four-door coupe draws more than a little inspiration from the CC while riding on VW's MQB platform.
It's a looker, we think, and is an eye-pleasing departure from the bland styling of the current Jetta. The sleeker front end is complemented by a wider body overall (it's wider than a Passat), while the more sporting roofline and the sharp rear fascia gives the New Midsize Coupe a decidedly sporting character. LED head- and taillights add a bit more personality to this already stylish design.
Thanks to its 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder, it should get along rather sportingly, as well. The run to 62 miles per hour takes just 6.5 seconds thanks to the 217 horsepower on offer. A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is also fitted, and contributes to an estimated 37 miles per gallon.

Volkswagen adding R-Line trim to Touareg, Tiguan for 2014
Fri, 11 Jan 2013Volkswagen introduced its aggressive R-Line appearance package on the CC and Beetle last year, but later this year, this treatment will also be applied to VW's crossovers, the Tiguan and Touareg. Both sporty-looking utility vehicles will be unveiled next week at the Detroit Auto Show.
The 2014 Tiguan R-Line comes standard with bi-xenon headlights and LED daytime running lights, and the package adds 19-inch wheels, grey fender extensions, body-color side skirts and a liftgate spoiler. Inside, the R-Line adds a flat-bottom sport steering wheel with paddle shifters, a black headliner and numerous metallic trim accents such as the stainless scuff plates, the aluminum pedals and metallic finish on the instrument and door panels. The Tiguan R-Line will be offered in front- and all-wheel drive configurations.
As for the 2014 Touareg R-Line (shown above), this model gets an ever more distinctive look with an aggressive front fascia, 20-inch wheels and dual oval-shaped exhaust outlets in addition to the painted side skirts and LED taillights. Similar metallic interior trim pieces found inside the Tiguan R-Line will also make their way into the Touareg as well as gloss black accents on the instrument panel and center stack.
