1964 One original celebrity owner bug, bought new and owned since new by Margaret A Peterson (AKA "Maggie Peterson"-Charlene Darling") Girlfriend on the hit TV "The Andy Griffith Show" (see picture) My darling drove this around to studios and filming for the show and to many events throughout the years. After it was parked in the garge for a long number of years we decided to bring it out and get it road worthy to enjoy again. We did not have it painted, just buffed up and it looks pretty good with some minor blemishes. We had it painted the same color many many years ago and have always enjoyed looking at it even under the garage dust. We had all new rubber moldings around doors, all windows, front and rear hatch etc. Had it tuned up and new tires put all the way around it. We then decided to freshen up the inside a bit so we also ordered from Wolfsburg new factory seat covers and also the horse hair padding. In all we spent about 3k to get it back on the road and driving well. Its been super fun but again has sat now for about a year and we cant drive it. The little trailer was also made in Germany, it folds up and has rails that fit around it (all complete in bag) We restored several vintage mini bikes over the years that match our cars, the one pictured here also goes with this package. We have the spare tire/wheel and jack, plus some new chrome window moldings. All in all it is a nice little fun car that cruises around well. Included are trailer and mini bike.

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.
Volkswagen Group names Paefgen head of classics program
Tue, 04 Oct 2011You may remember the name Franz-Josef Paefgen. Until recently, the German engineer and executive was head of both Bentley and Bugatti. Before that he was chief executive of Audi, after working for several years at Ford. He technically "retired" earlier this year, but like the cars he helped create, an executive like Paefgen could never really retire. So it should come as little surprise that the Volkswagen Group has named Dr. Paefgen head of its Classic program.
In his new capacity, Paefgen will oversee the historic automobile activities of the entire VW Group, including those of Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Audi, Lamborghini, and of course Bentley and Bugatti. It strikes us as a suitable semi-retirement for the man responsible in no small part for the Bugatti Veyron and Bentley Mulsanne, to name just two, and who was decorated in 2006 by the ACO as the "Spirit of Le Mans" for his contribution to endurance racing. Read the official announcement after the break.
Volkswagen CrossBlue Coupe is a green fun-machine we want to drive
Fri, 19 Apr 2013Think back to January's Detroit Auto Show. Those of you that are fans of the Volkswagen brand, impressed with green technology or simply fall into the "diesel geek" category, will almost certainly remember VW's CrossBlue concept with its diesel/electric hybrid powertrain, seating for seven, and somewhat awkward crossover styling. It was an impressive piece of future tech, to be sure, though it left something to be desired in the, well, desirability department.
Here in Shanghai, VW has brought along a CrossBlue Coupe concept that would seem to include most of the goodness of the original, but flavored with more sport and style this time around.
The CrossBlue Coupe makes use of the same electric drive components as the larger three-row concept: two electric motors (front and rear) powered by a 9.8-kWh lithium-ion battery. However, where the original concept made use of a TDI four-cylinder, the Coupe substitutes a 295-horsepower, direct-injection, gasoline-burning V6.
