For sale is this fun little 1965 VW Beetle. I found this one in a barn while doing some community outreach at the residence next door and asked the owner if it was possibly for sale. He had been moving it around over and over and decided to sell.. I have had this car and been using it for the last year or so to do errands around town and it has just been a blast! People are always waving and coming over to check it out when I park at the store or what have you. At any rate, the street in front of our business is closing for a major remodel and I have moved my office and the cars home and need to reduce inventory.
This '65 is in original paint, the radio works, and she runs awesome for a 40HP engine. I have come to belive that the 98,170 miles is probably actual from the titling record, but haven't gone to the trouble to verify it without a doubt. The car hasn't been on the road since 1988, so completely possible to be true miles, in my opinion. Haven't checked the mpg but have had others with this same engine and got around 28-30mpg or more consistently. The interior is new West Coast Metric materials, including fire resistant foam cushions in place of the original horse hair/fire-bomb stuff for extra safety. The bodywork tells the story of this little cars life and could never be replicated by the new "distressing" treatments some guys are giving perfectly good old cars to "create" the kind of patina this car has for real. The car came out of Colorado and comes to you with a clean Colorado title. Drive it home today, or we can deliver for $1.00 per mile anywhere. Thanks for looking and happy bidding. Jay.

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.
Editors' Choice: Top Five 2013 Geneva Motor Show Debuts
Fri, 08 Mar 2013We've returned from a very busy week in Switzerland, and in going back over all of our 75 stories from the Geneva Motor Show, our editors have gathered up their personal favorite debuts from the European expo.
The wonderful thing about the Geneva show is just how wide of an array of vehicles are on display - everything from funny little one-off EVs to the most exotic of supercars to, well, truly ridiculous displays of coachbuilding. And because of that, this list of our editors' favorites might not be as predictable as you think.
But we don't want to give anything away just yet. Scroll down to have a look at our team's favorites from Geneva.
VW looking to MAN up, ditch Mercedes van deal
Wed, 16 Jan 2013Unlike the US, the commercial truck market throughout the rest of the world is chocked full of competitors from many different automakers. Since 2006, Volkswagen has had a fullsize van called the Crafter that was a result of a partnership with Daimler AG and based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. This partnership is supposed to last through 2016, but Reuters is reporting that VW might be looking to end its relationship with Daimler and create its own van in cooperation with German truck and bus maker MAN.
The article says that VW AG has more than a 75-percent stake in MAN, which would essentially be keeping the new commercial vehicle in-house. Even if VW bolts, Daimler still has a deal worked out in the commercial truck industry between its subsidiary Mitsubishi Fuso and Renault-Nissan to supply the other with different trucks.
