This is a 2002 Volkswagen Passat GLS 1.8T 183,430 actual miles on it. Nice mid-size car. It is in nice condition. It has all leather seats, Front two seats are heated and they work. It has a moon roof/sun roof as well which is electric and works.
It has a Monsoon Factory radio in it which is tape and cd both and they both work.
This car has Two NEW front tires. The back tires will need to be replaced in short time, maybe 8-10,000 miles longer. I just simply replace them two at a time. This car is Front wheel drive not all wheel drive.
Power locks and windows. They all work and function completely EXCEPT the Driver's door. The motor runs but needs a new regulator which new is approx. $100.00.
It gets excellent gas mileage. Since we have had it and driven it I have not gotten any under 28mpg. that has been in town and highway miles. I drive 30miles one way to work everyday. It is a 4cylnder turbo charged 1.8T engine which is automatic or has the ability to be shifted manually which I think they call it Triptontic. It does shift hard out of 3rd gear sometimes. Not all the time which I have been told is a common issue with these cars. I have not had any trouble with Sludge issues. Just the glitch from time to time out of third and if you manually shift it, it is smoother but still does it some. I did recently have the ignition coil replaced which has made an improvement with the car's idle and running. It has some minor leaks as it does have 183430 miles on it but it runs good and does not burn oil.
The timing belt is fairly new. Good solid condition no cracks.
The rear defrost works. The two mirrors are electric motion however I think a fuse is out possibly because they do not move. The car comes with a like new owners manual which has proven to be helpful. It has a small missing chrome piece on the passenger side of the trim.
I would be glad to take any pictures that are not shown and post them. Just email or call me with ANY Questions.
The car also comes with the attachment to change the tires. It comes with a spare tire in the trunk.
The vehicle comes with one key which has the keyless entry for the power locks. Which works as well.
The car is being sold AS-IS. The asking price is negotiable. I am willing to bend a little on the asking price.
Thank you for looking.

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.
Porsche board members facing another ˆ1.8B lawsuit over VW takeover bid
Mon, 03 Feb 2014Back in 2008, Porsche got the bright idea that it could take over Volkswagen in the midst of the worst economic slump since the Great Depression. Ignoring that this was a catastrophic move for the Stuttgart sports car manufacturer that that eventually resulted in it nearly going bankrupt and eventually being taken over by the same company it sought to control, the aftermath has left Porsche Chairman Wolfgang Porsche and board member Ferdinand Piëch in the crosshairs of seven hedge funds that lost out during the takeover and are now seeking €1.8 billion - $2.43 billion US - in damages from the two execs, according to the BBC.
See, investors bet on Volkswagen's share price going down, partially because Porsche said it wasn't going to attempt a takeover. But Porsche was attempting to take over VW, having bought up nearly 75-percent of VW's publicly traded shares. When word broke that Porsche owned nearly three-quarters of VW (which indicated an imminent takeover attempt), rather than go down like the hedge funds bet it would, VW's share price skyrocketed to over 1,000 euros per share, according to Reuters.
Naturally, when you bet that a company's share price is going to drop and it in turn (temporarily) becomes the world's most valuable company, you lose a lot of money, unless you're able to buy up shares before prices jump too much. This led to a squeeze on the stock, which the hedge funds accuse Porsche and Piëch (who are both members of the Porsche family and supervisory board) of organizing.
UAW angered over VW workers getting right to defend anti-union vote
Thu, 13 Mar 2014The United Auto Workers have called a decision by the National Labor Relations Board allowing anti-UAW employees at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga the right to defend voting down unionization at the plant "an outrage."
You'll recall that the union was defeated by a vote of 712 to 626 in a contentious February election. The UAW claims the outcome was unfairly swayed by pro-business, anti-union forces, including Senator Bob Corker and political advocate Grover Norquist.
This new decision by the NLRB essentially gives workers backed by the anti-UAW National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation and Southern Momentum a formal voice in the impending hearing on the UAW's appeal of the vote.
