Neutral: Would You Buy A VW Right Now?

Looks like the track workers are focused on clearing debris...I guess they knew the guy crumpled of to their side was doing fine.

They didn’t wipe all diesels, just the offending 2.0. Which is almost all, except the Toureg TDI which is still for sale.

Because everyone should at least try thinking out of the box!

Texting is a secondary offence in Florida, so you need to be doing other reckless shit for them to pull you over.

Are they gonna crack down on rolling coal, too?

I really gotta get around to this. My VW just turned 25, and every time the emissions check comes around I worry about the Subaru engine lying within. And those Maryland use restrictions don’t bother me...I’ll just drive it to collector events like the big Syncro party in Hollister Hills CA, 2883 miles away!

Wendelin Wiedeking’s revenge. Eight years later, Porsche actually does takes over VW.

They are advertising $2K discounts here in Maryland, before this all started.

I’m with you, but hope when they do fix it you don’t end up with the modern equivalent of a 240D with an automatic!

That’s my point, buy a GTI or other gas or E car. They can’t sell the diesels, but someone still will have the carrying costs every month while this gets sorted out with a recall, or crusher, whatev

Cars.com shows 14,981 new 2.0 TDI’s for sale. Maybe its a good time to head on down to the VW dealer and buy a GTI (or anything else they are still selling) while they worry about how to raise cash to make the floorpan payments. .

Its funny about this loosing the service records thing, the shop I use keeps the records in some sort of computer thing, and if I loose my copy, they give me another. Danger, danger! And CP.

Likely trashed before the two years are up, so no problem.

This is kinda sad. It was not a Panel Delivery. Neither the ad or the tumbler page show the build plate. What was this puppy at the outset? The earlier photos seem to show what used to be a desirable SO-42 camper being turned into an OK panel van. And yes, there is the OSB, plus the black trim instead of proper silver…

There really are three (or more) power train options and four suspension options and a lot of reviews cite uncomfortable highway handling, so how can the buyer sort this out?

Not even a slap I’ll bet...as members of the royal family, probably diplomatic immunity.

It’s been corrected...

Here is another viewpoint without the license plates blocked out, and with the arrival of the police. Fingers are pointing at the Quatar’ royal family.
