Vorderman Volkswagen; do the right thing and treat people with respect


First week at Vorderman Volkswagen
by Ken W. Button




A few weeks ago I had reached out to Vorderman Volkswagen about doing some Internet consulting and marketing work within their Internet Department.  To my delight, we were able to reach a mutually beneficial agreement.  Last week was my first week working here at Vorderman Volkswagen and I’m impressed, to say the least.  The first thing I did was spend a few days getting to know the people here at Vorderman and I’ve been met with kindness and enthusiasm from every individual on the team.  


My impression of this dealership?  This is a highly trained and dedicated team with two very fundamental and extraordinary traits; do the right thing and treat people with respect.


There is a culture here at Vorderman VW which is unlike any dealership I’ve worked with or visited in the past.  This culture is best described as family.  The owners Reg and Connie Vorderman have assembled a highly competent, high moral character team.  Reg and Connie explained to me during my interview and hiring process that this organization is about more than just solving the automobile needs of customers, it is also about providing great people a stable, consistent and lucrative career with excellent benefits.  “Great customer service and support starts with the people in an organization, we've done our best to ensure the people here are the right people.” - Reg Vorderman

Vorderman Volkswagen is a full scale automotive dealership specializing in the sale and service of new and used Volkswagen vehicles.  Additionally, Vorderman Volkswagen provides a plethora of other pre-owned makes and models for sale.  Furthermore, Vorderman Volkswagen services all makes and models of vehicles.

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Volkswagen Group Records Best Ever First-Half-of-Year Sales

With 5.5 million vehicles in customer hands after the first six months of 2018, the Volkswagen Group is seeing the best performance of its history. Group deliveries increased significantly in all core regions,” said Fred Kappler, head of sales for the Group. “Our core brands recorded strong growth in the first half year.” For the year-to-date, all of Volkswagen’s brands had sales bumps. MAN, SEAT, and Skoda led the sales charge with performances 24%, 17% and 11% better than the previous year. The big sellers, too, had strong sales periods, with Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Audi, and Volkswagen sales rising 3.5%, 4.5% and 6.3% respectively. That last figure is particularly good new for the board, since Volkswagen alone sold more than 3 million vehicles in the first half of 2018. As Kappler stated, the numbers are equally good when you break sales down by region. Brazil and Russia were the most improved markets (22% and 20%, respectively), while strong sales in Europe and China (u...

Project Golf SportWagen- Intro

I’ve never really been one for SUVs and crossovers.  The current offerings aren’t the body-on-frame, go-anywhere specialty tools I remember from my youth, and what they lack in capability, they also lack in on-road performance. The current crop isn’t terribly good at handling or being efficient, which in my opinion are major components of our ideal driving experience.  So when it comes to space or utility, I usually look for something of the wagon variety- and it seems that I’m not alone. We hit quite a few shows around the east coast each summer, and we see modified Jetta SportWagens at nearly every event. Even amongst common consumers, these cars are highly sought-after. They don’t depreciate much, making even early Mk 5 2.5 versions expensive in comparison to other Jettas or Golfs of the same vintage. This year, Volkswagen launched their latest SportWagen, which is now billed as a Golf.  In many ways, this latest SportWagen is the best yet and it has certai...
