South Gate, California, United States
1979 VW BUS CAMPMOBILE DELUXE WESTFALIA. This is a "true survivor" westfalia campmobile featuring original Mexico beige exterior paint color and complete great condition interior. This bus is perfect for those collectors looking for stock "unrestored" vehicles. Technically a 2 owner bus and I'm the 3rd one. Second owner acquired this bus in 2010 and was parked at his mechanic shop for about 4 years. Odometer currently shows 94,115 original miles. Exterior looks awesome with original paint that still shines pretty well with some minor parking lot dings mostly on the slide door but never been in an accident so no body work or paint patches around ever. Yes, I know there are a lot of nice "restored" buses out there but how many times do you have the chance to own a real survivor westfalia? The answer is not many. Pros: - Original Mexico beige paint in superb condition. - Accident free bus with straight panels and no body work repairs ever. - Clean complete interior with all cabinets in great condition. - Fridge is working as it should be as well as sink with electric pump. - Clean original dash. - Original carpet front and back. - Original plaid upholstery for rear seat and bed on top. - New tires. - Excellent running condition with original fuel injection system. - Original like new rear hatch mosquito net. - New top canvas. - Refurbished front seats. - Clear California title and current registration. - Solid chassis and floors. - Original dash table. - Original bench between front seats. - Starts at any time in any weather, engine purrs like a kitten. Cons: - Minor dings and dents on exterior body. - Surface rust at driver side front floor and under rubber step pads. - Minor little rust dots starting to appear at front panel middle and lower section. - White vinyl material from headliner removed by previous owner. - Shut off valve on the outside gas tank has a leak. - Dash B light for brake is on. - Front seats not upholstered in plaid material. In general this is an awesome bus getting many thumbs up at car shows because of its originality. Do not hesitate to make an appointment to see it in person.

Volkswagen adding R-Line trim to Touareg, Tiguan for 2014
Fri, 11 Jan 2013Volkswagen introduced its aggressive R-Line appearance package on the CC and Beetle last year, but later this year, this treatment will also be applied to VW's crossovers, the Tiguan and Touareg. Both sporty-looking utility vehicles will be unveiled next week at the Detroit Auto Show.
The 2014 Tiguan R-Line comes standard with bi-xenon headlights and LED daytime running lights, and the package adds 19-inch wheels, grey fender extensions, body-color side skirts and a liftgate spoiler. Inside, the R-Line adds a flat-bottom sport steering wheel with paddle shifters, a black headliner and numerous metallic trim accents such as the stainless scuff plates, the aluminum pedals and metallic finish on the instrument and door panels. The Tiguan R-Line will be offered in front- and all-wheel drive configurations.
As for the 2014 Touareg R-Line (shown above), this model gets an ever more distinctive look with an aggressive front fascia, 20-inch wheels and dual oval-shaped exhaust outlets in addition to the painted side skirts and LED taillights. Similar metallic interior trim pieces found inside the Tiguan R-Line will also make their way into the Touareg as well as gloss black accents on the instrument panel and center stack.
NHTSA, IIHS, and 20 automakers to make auto braking standard by 2022
Thu, Mar 17 2016The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and virtually every automaker in the US domestic market have announced a pact to make automatic emergency braking standard by 2022. Here's the full rundown of companies involved: BMW, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Tesla, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Volvo (not to mention the brands that fall under each automaker's respective umbrella). Like we reported yesterday, AEB will be as ubiquitous in the future as traction and stability control are today. But the thing to note here is that this is not a governmental mandate. It's truly an agreement between automakers and the government, a fact that NHTSA claims will lead to widespread adoption three years sooner than a formal rule. That fact in itself should prevent up to 28,000 crashes and 12,000 injuries. The agreement will come into effect in two waves. For the majority of vehicles on the road – those with gross vehicle weights below 8,500 pounds – AEB will need to be standard equipment by September 1, 2022. Vehicles between 8,501 and 10,000 pounds will have an extra three years to offer AEB. "It's an exciting time for vehicle safety. By proactively making emergency braking systems standard equipment on their vehicles, these 20 automakers will help prevent thousands of crashes and save lives," said Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx said in an official statement. "It's a win for safety and a win for consumers." Read on for the official press release from NHTSA.

Automakers making the commitment are Audi, BMW, FCA US LLC, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Maserati, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan, Porsche, Subaru, Tesla Motors Inc., Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo Car USA.
