Vehicle Detail

This is a no reserve listing. This is my 2004 Volkswagen Phaeton W12 420 horsepower AWD sedan. This car is the most luxurious vehicle ever produced by Volkswagen, and it was well over $100,000 new in 2004. This car is built on the same platform as the Bentley Continental, and it also shares the W12 engine with the Bentley. This is a beautiful, clean, smooth and quiet W12 Phaeton- one of only about 300 W12 Phaetons sold in 2004. This is the 420HP W12 model, with AWD, heated and cooled front and rear seats, massaging seats, draftless 4-zone ventilation, navigation, adjustable suspension (ride height and shock stiffness), premium audio system with DSP, plus any and every luxury you could imagine on a vehicle. This car has a very straight, clean body with excellent paint. The car looks beautiful with no damage. The interior is in beautiful clean condition- the leather, upholstery, carpets and interior panels are clean and in excellent condition. This was a non-smoker's car. This car has exactly one problem. After 20-30 minutes of driving, the engine coolant will become hot. This is caused by a head gasket allowing exhaust gases into the cooling system. There is no oil in the coolant nor coolant in the oil, and no mechanical damage to the engine. The engine has not been "cooked"- a head gasket needs to be replaced. The engine runs butter-smooth and it runs perfectly. Every single feature and option on the entire car works perfectly and there are no warning lights illuminated. Cosmetically the car is outstanding- the paint and body are clean and superb and in pristine condition with no damage. The interior is very clean and in excellent condition. This is a clean, great-driving car in gorgeous cosmetic condition. Replace the head gasket and this car will be a dream car at a superb price. This car is fully operable and driveable. Every option and feature on the car works perfectly- the air conditioning, 270W premium sound system, heated and cooled seats, navigation, etc, etc. This car can be driven reasonable distances with no trouble, and can obviously be driven onto a shipping truck or trailer. For shipping, please call Angels Moving Autos at 530 245 0481. This is a fully operable vehicle. This car is kept in my warehouse in Willoughby, OH. Please call me at 440 339 4341 with any questions. On May-07-13 at 08:42:25 PDT, seller added the following information: On May-11-13 at 06:36:38 PDT, seller added the following information:This is a beautiful-driving, quiet, comfortable and super-luxurious car in great condition. Literally every feature, function and button on the car is working properly, including the adjustable-height air suspension (sometimes takes a minute or so for the system to equalize), power sunroof shade, draftless heat/ventilation/air conditioning, adjustable suspension stiffness, heated and cooled plus massaging seats, etc. The engine is butter-smooth at all times and hugely powerful, transmission shifts perfectly and there is no binding in the AWD system. Please keep in mind this is a 8 year old car with 135,000 miles, not brand new. It has normal and expected wear and tear appropriate to the age of the car, including minor interior wear, small stone nicks and other small exterior and interior flaws. If this were a lease return it would pass the cosmetic condition exam easily. I feel a little pulsing from the rear brakes, I assume the brake rotors need to be turned or replaced. This is a beautiful, clean, great Phaeton. I will be available by phone all weekend in case you have questions. -John
