Overall decent Mk1: Actual VIN: WVWGGU160EW126232. (eBay website would not accept the VIN) Decent exterior (west coast minimal rust), a few small dings and small spots on hood but body remarkably straight, great mpg, Interior fair to decent, small damage spots to cloth seats (could use cleaning), dash decent (few if any cracks), runs and drives, cold starts( at 26 degrees this Winter), minimal smoke for old diesel (I noticed a small puff on shifting), trunk lock sticking so temporarily removed, locks work but sticky, windows work (a little stiff), exhaust rattles at idle sometimes, electrical works mostly(needs some work), noticed one dim headlight and flashing glow plug light but glow plugs seem to work fine. Recent work in includes: wheel bearings and brakes, front shocks and tie rods, and steering boots, windshield and seal. Fun to drive as far as handling but these never had much power comparatively. Lots of room to work on this car. I would keep it except I want to buy solar panels while the price is rock bottom. I tried to set the reserve price not too far above starting bid. However, If it does not get close to the price I need for the solar I may pull the ad as I really like this car and they are getting rare! Not many of this chassis left in USA. Plus a 43 mpg car pays for itself in savings. I don't know much more about it but feel free to ask. There is no smog testing here so I do not know if the engine is up to date. I was told the engine had been replaced by former owner. I do not know any more history. It is sold as is as a used vehicle. Thanks for looking

New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise
Mon, 18 Feb 2013Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?
VW makes $23K on every Porsche sold, more than Bentley or Lamborghini
Fri, 14 Mar 2014It's a good time to be in the luxury car business. In Volkswagen Group's financial report for the 2013 fiscal year, it is revealed that that Porsche enjoyed an operating margin of 18 percent. That means the Stuttgart brand made on average about $23,200 per car sold, according to BusinessWeek. Bentley wasn't far behind, and Audi (which was combined with Lamborghini) posted a 10.1 percent margin. This compares to only around 2.9 percent for the Volkswagen brand.
"Luxury brands are on fire," said Dave Sullivan, an industry analyst at AutoPacific. He said that the average profit margin is between six and eight percent. Brands like Porsche and Bentley have the benefit of competing in rarefied markets. Buyers looking at one their vehicles have fewer models to shop against and don't care as much about price. They can also charge more for options, which further boosts income, according to BusinessWeek.
In a way, we should be more impressed by the continued success from Audi. Its models generally have direct competitors in every segment from the other premium automakers. Plus, their buyers aren't the captains of industry who are shopping for a Bentley. Still, the Four Rings is leading rivals in sales so far this year.
Lamborghini and Bentley may hold off on SUVs so VW can conserve cash
Thu, 11 Oct 2012After surveying the European economic scene, Volkswagen may have decided now is not the time to launch utility vehicles with Bentley and Lamborghini badges. Bentley officials say they will continue to push for support for the EXP 9 F and Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelman has said planning for the Urus will continue until VW tells it to stop.
That decision could come on November 23, when VW's board will vote on the company's budget for equipment, factories and vehicles. With VW's sales slowing and the Euro economy slumping further, some industry watchers say the company is more likely to build its cash reserves than to introduce super-expensive luxury SUVs or crossovers.
"Such vehicles are anything but obligatory during a crisis," says Frankfurt-based Equinet AG analyst Tim Schuldt in a new Automotive News Europe story. "Delaying their launch would be no drama but help save costs."
