 UP for bid today is a heavy project volkswagen bus! Its one huge plus is that it comes with a lot of parts! Let me list them, TWO engines (apart) one is a 1600 dual port and the other is a 1700 dual carb (no carbs included). Both of the engines are NOT assembled. Most of the pieces are there. The 1600 did run before I took it apart. The rod bearings were showing copper and the crank looks like it needs to be reground. The heads for the 1600 are included and look OK. I can't see any cracks. I will include most of the fan shrouding for both engines plus a 1500 non doghouse shroud from another project. The 1700 was bought from another seller. It had been sitting for awhile and had gotten water into one cylinder. The engine would turn but would stop at one point. This was because the water in the one cylinder had corroded the aluminum of the head and wouldn't allow it to reach TDC. No carbs are included in this sale. The 1700 block, which btw is a type four engine, seems to be fine. Along with the crank. IT doesn't seem like the bottom end of the 1700 needed any machining work but that will be up to the buyer. The bus does have it's windshield. It is located in the back. You will also get two middle seats and the rear seat, two used but good head exchanges for a 1600 and other misc parts! The bus only has 21,000 miles on the transmission! Such a shame for all the body rot.. The rain gutters are probably going to be the hardest to replace. Along with the panel under the windsheild, the doglegs, parts of the floor are gone as well. There is plenty of rust! If you have any questions feel free to email me. The bus and parts are being sold AS A WHOLE LOT. I will not be splitting anything up! Bus needs to be gone by july first so if you have any trouble getting a trailer let me know, we might be able to work something out. Thanks!

Volkswagen Golf R wagon promises to be fast and functional [w/poll]

Tue, 25 Mar 2014

Volkswagen's array of performance-oriented Golfs keeps getting bigger and bigger. What started with the GTI has since grown to include the diesel GTD, the hybrid GTE and the most powerful Golf R. But the additions haven't all come down to powertain. There's been cabrio versions of the GTI and Golf R as well, but before all is said and done, there will be one more bodystyle to join the lineup.
That, according to these latest spy shots, would be the Golf R Variant. For those unfamiliar, Variant is what Volkswagen calls the wagon version of the Golf (in some markets, anyway). It offers the Golf Variant with a variety of engines, but as the spy shots reveal, it is now working on bringing the Golf Variant and the Golf R together into one high-powered, long-roofed model.
The VW Golf R Variant would in all likelihood pack the same 2.0-liter turbo four as the hatchback, splitting 290 horsepower between all four wheels. Only in the wagon, it would offer that extra bit of utility. Of course there's no guarantee that Volkswagen would offer the Golf R Variant in the North American market, but considering that the Golf R hatchback will soon be joined in American showrooms by the Golf SpotWagen (as it's tipped to be called here) in place for the Jetta wagon, the possibility is definitely there.

VW to relax ambitious US sales targets?

Fri, 16 May 2014

The Volkswagen brand sold 407,704 cars last year, a 6.95-percent decline compared to 2012, and it's down a further 8.36 percent through the end of April 2014 compared to this time last year. In order to to put the sales football between its Strategy 2018 goal posts, the brand would need to add 100,000 more sales every year to achieve the lofty 800,000-unit target. Coming to grips with how unreasonable that is, VW US CEO Michael Horn has said, "For now, we have to have realistic targets."
The reasons for the brand's slow-down are imprecise, but lots of folks are throwing lots of reasons around. Last November, VW Group Chairman Ferdinand Piech told Bloomberg, "We understand Europe, we understand China and we understand Brazil, [but] we only understand the US to a certain degree so far." Analysts say the brand hasn't had midsize and compact SUV offerings, especially an overdue retail version of the CrossBlue, and the ones it does have are priced too high for their segments. It "didn't introduce enough new engines, or alternative technologies or model variants" for the Passat and Jetta. It devoted so many resources to China that the US market suffered. It was being outspent two-to-one on advertising by competitors. Its J.D. Power dependability ratings aren't high enough to overcome its past. It "has never really taken the US customer seriously." And so on.
There's still no official admission of defeat concerning the target, but reading between the lines there are some VW execs that appear to accept it won't happen short of some deus ex machina. Still,
