2004 Volkswagen Phaeton W12 Sedan 4-door 6.0l on 2040-cars
Harbor Springs, Michigan, United States
This vehicle has received dealer attention only since I purchased it in 2010. All of the known issues have been addressed and many many preventative measures taken as well.I will make available for serious buyers a link to a Dropbox folder with the entire service history and many more photos since I have owned the vehicle. I would describe the car as very very nice for its age......I am selling the car as another purchase opportunity presented itself but I needed to act quickly...so I did and now I need to sell the Phaeton.
Extra's include keyless ignition, Audi S8 wheels with summer tires as shoen in the pics,Original Challenger wheels with snows,oem trunk mat,oem trunk safety triangle and oem winter rubber mats with original plastic hangers. Now the dings.... scuff on the rear bumper cover near the license plate,the front bumper has the classic cracks in it and I chose not to repair it this winter planning to do it this summer until the other vehicle opportunity showed up so now I intend to leave it for the buyer to repair so that should it crack again (sadly very common because of incorrect re-install) it will be done by the vendor of your choice and you will have a claim in your local market. Also some of the interior wood trim is showing some minor cracks and glazing as is typical for this vehicle. FYI the pics were taken by the dealership staff inside their service area a month or so ago as it was still winter here and they had just detailed the car for me and could shoot it inside. |

Last VW bus ever made arrives at final destination
Fri, 31 Jan 2014A Brazilian politician tried to save it, unsuccessfully, so the final Last Edition Volkswagen Type 2 Kombi was produced on December 20, 2013 and now resides in a vintage museum at Volkswagen's Commercial Vehicles HQ in Hanover, Germany.
The Volkswagen Microbus was built for 56 years, starting in September 1957. Brazil was the last country still assembling it, but new safety regulations in the country requiring airbags and ABS on all cars spelled the end. When that politician introduced a bill that would pardon only the 'Bus from a death sentence, it couldn't garner the required number of votes for passage. The South American country takes the Kombi production title, though, with 1.5 million of the 3.5 million total made in the home of Copacabana beach and the girl from Ipanema.
The VW Bus is dead. Now perhaps we can turn our attentions to the still-not-totally-settled matter of the Bulli...
Volkswagen Group, BMW Z4 top Total Value Awards by Strategic Vision
Tue, 11 Dec 2012It was just nine months ago that Strategic Vision announced its 2011 Total Value Awards, but you don't have to wait until next year for the 2012 awards. The Volkswagen Group keeps its lead as the number one brand, with seven products taking top category spots: Golf, Jetta Wagon, CC, Eos and Audi A3 Wagon, Q5 and Q7. Strategic Vision says "true innovation" - "rich and impactful, intuitive, motivational, in-depth and is able to trigger description by the user in great specificity" - is the open secret of the brands with the strongest showings. Results are culled from 77,153 owners covering more than 350 new cars bought between September of 2011 and 2012 ranked in the Total Value Index (TVI).
Other notable winners are Hyundai-Kia following VW in the brand category and having the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Sorento among category winners, the BMW Z4 taking the premium roadster category and the highest overall score of any vehicle, the Chevrolet Volt continuing to gather silverware in the Special Category, nabbing the second-highest score of all and representative of "nearly perfect innovation," and Chrysler and Dodge being most improved.

Volkswagen looking to acquire Proton, Lotus?
Thu, 26 Jul 2012Let's say you're an automaker bent on world domination looking to grow your sales. That's going to have you looking at Asian markets, because that's where some of the biggest growth has been, and that's exactly what Volkswagen is doing as it considers making another run at Malaysia's Proton.
Reuters reports that Volkswagen is interested in at least a partial stake, if not a controlling interest in Lotus-parent Proton as a way to continue a production presence in the region without having to build its own factory.
Volkswagen already builds the Passat in a DRB-HICOM facility in Pekan, Malaysia, and plans are in place to build the Jetta and Polo there, as well. With both southeast Asia and its relationship with Proton figuring so importantly in Volkswagen's plans for expansion, buying into Proton can help ensure stability. Volkswagen is being tight-lipped about the whole idea, but CEO Martin Winterkorn did recently say, "it's our clear goal to continue the successful (expansion) course of past years with great dynamics and stability," which sounds an awful lot like deals are on the table to smooth the path to further growth.
