Volkswagen Beetle

The Volkswagen Type 1, widely known as the Volkswagen Beetle, is an economy car produced by the German auto maker Volkswagen (VW) from 1938 until 2003. With over 21 million manufactured in an air-cooled, rear-engined, rear-wheel drive configuration, the Beetle is the longest-running and most-manufactured automobile of a single design platform anywhere in the world.

The Beetle is widely used in drag racing; its rearward (RR layout) weight distribution keeps the weight over the rear wheels, maximizing grip off the starting line. The car's weight is reduced for a full competition drag Beetle, further improving the grip and also the power to weight ratio. Combined with the Beetle's RR layout, wheelies can be achieved easily, but time "in the air" worsens 1/4 mile time. To prevent this, "wheelie bars" are added. The fastest time a beetle has run in the quarter mile was 7.78 in 2008.

Customized Beetle styles include the Rat rod and Cal Look which evolved during its lifespan. Customisation includes lowering the car's suspension, altering the wheels, removing or replacing the bumpers, as with pushbar. The stock bumpers are usually chromed or polished, sometimes painted or powder coated. Clubs dedicated to 'Cal Look' occur worldwide.Customizing may also include smoothing or shaving the body — removing trim and other parts, including door handles, badges and driprails, Frenching or tunnelling the headlights, lowering, custom hood and trunk hinging, chopping and lowering of the roof and replacing taillights and front indicators with smaller, simpler units.

Its engine, transmission, and cylinder heads were constructed of light alloy. An engine oil cooler (located in the engine fan's shroud) ensured optimal engine operating temperature and long engine life, optimized by a thermostat that bypassed the oil cooler when the engine was cold. Later models of the carburetor featured an automatic choke. Engine intake air passed through a metallic filter, while heavier particles were captured by an oil bath. After 1960, steering featured a hydraulic damper that absorbed steering irregularities.

Volkswagen New Beetle pics

The Volkswagen New Beetle is a minor clan auto, acquainted by Volkswagen in 1998, drawing considerable enthusiasm from the outer surface configuration of the first Beetle. Unlike the first Beetle, the New Beetle has its motor in the front driving the front wheels and luggage reserves in the rear. In May 2010, Volkswagen advertised that preparation of the current group of the New Beetle will stop in 2011. 1 A redesigned model will displace it.

Volkswagen Polo 2010

Blue Volkswagen Polo 2010

The Volkswagen Polo is a supermini car (subcompact) manufactured by Volkswagen. It is sold in Europe and other markets worldwide in hatchback, saloon, coupé and estate variants.

Yellow Volkswagen Polo

The Polo is a compact car, with a traditional transversely mounted engine and front-wheel drive. Mark I Polos only came with four-cylinder petrol engines, but for the Mark II, a diesel engine was offered for the first time, although only in certain markets, others having to wait until the launch of the Mark III. The current range includes a variety of three- and four-cylinder petrol and diesel engines.

Volkswagen Polo Concept

Early versions used four speed manual transmission, whilst the current car is available with either five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. The suspension system on all models uses a fully independent MacPherson strut front suspension, and a Twist-beam rear suspension. Most models use disc brakes at the front and rear drum brakes, although some recent models have all round disc brakes.

Volkswagen Passat Chocolate 2011


The resemblance is plain to the eye; the V-shaped grille (the new face of VW cars from here on), raked side profile, and the high but truncated boot lid spells junior Passat rather than booted Golf, and perhaps recognising that the rest of the world have different preferences compared to Europe, VW has applied a generous amount of chrome on the radiator grille and copied the Passat's 'brilliant' LED rear lamp design, both of which might just prove to be a big hit But instead of just grafting on a boot to the Golf, every panel aft of the B-pillars is distinct to the Jetta, and for inspiration, VW looked to big brother Passat. With the underpinnings all well and sorted, the styling would have to be the major factor. The new Jetta based on the Mk5 Golf- is supposed to change all that. Closer to home, the Bora has lived a relatively quiet existence, regarded by many as 'boring' next to its more illustrious hatchback sibling and the iconic Beetle. In fact, the Jetta has the rare distinction of being launched first in North America before Europe, and it is only produced in Mexico. In America where additional space of whatever form in an automobile is always welcomed, the Jetta (that's Bora for the rest of the world) is the most popular European passenger car for many years running, accounting for 40 per cent of all Volkswagens sold there. Outside the continent of Europe, four-door saloons are generally more popular over hatchbacks. The name change isn't just for kicks.

The Four Wheel Drive Volkswagen group also has With this, you can safely assume that the older cars would be much cheaper compared to the MK6 version, if at all you are looking for the used Volkswagen Passat. In fact Volkswagen reports that it has seen better sales of MK6 version compared to any previous models of the Volkswagen Passat. With that, the new Passat is given a luxurious looks along with the other perks that would be soon discussed. Many experts say that Volkswagen has changed the design of MK6 such that it deviates a lot from the design of the Volkswagen Passat B5.5 and is more deviated towards the famous Volkswagen luxury car, the Volkswagen Phaeton. A Brief About The Design Factor There are a few things that can be told about the design of this car too. This particular car is also referred by many people as the 3C version and also B6. MK6 version is built upon the famous and very stable MK5 platform. It was in 2005 during the Geneva Motor Show that the Volkswagen Passat MK6 was first introduced, and late that summer it was available throughout the Europe. If you are planning on buying a used Volkswagen Passat, then probably this small guide should help you. For the same reason, we'd be talking about the MK6 version of the famous car from Volkswagen; the Volkswagen Passat. Introducing The Brand New Volkswagen Passat MK6 It is important to understand as much as possible about a car before buying it, and you'd agree to that.
