1981 Vw Westfalia Pop Top Camper- Low Miles!! *reduced* on 2040-cars
Carlsbad, California, United States
|
Just in time for Christmas! Here is a low mileage Westfalia camper with all of the right equipment. The vehicle checks out on CARFAX. The stove and three way refrigerator have just been serviced and the propane tank topped off. Just serviced means that everything works properly! The sink area and stove area are very clean and servicable and water system works as it should. The vehicle has 15 inch wheels and tires and an optional after market Olympian Wave 3 hi tech cabin heater which runs off of the propane as well. Since I was going to give this vehicle to my son I had it checked out. A new clutch was installed less than two hundred miles ago along with fresh brakes and the vehicle was serviced by world famous VW Paradise in San Marcos, California. It still has a few minor oil leaks, but if someone tells you that they have an air cooled VW with no oil leaks have them sign you up for Obamacare while they're at it! The paint is all original and there is NO rust in the frame or under carriage. The driver and passenger seats are original and they are in amazing shape for a 32 year old vehicle. The pop up tent is showing it's age and should be replaced. Machanically the vehicle is great. It runs and drives as well as a 67HP vehicle pulling around the weight of this camper is supposed to run. The transmission shifts like new. A Pioneer radio/CD combo with Blue Tooth was just installed and it plays through four speakers. You will notice in the photos that the paint stll shines like new. There are a few scratches and a minor ding or two here and there and the windshield has a chip on the passanger side, but what the heck, we all had scratches and dings by the time that we were thirty-two years old! These "Westys" are getting hard to find and they are going up in value every year. I purcchased this one for my son but he didn't think that it had enough power for the mountains since he is used to driving a V-6 4Runner. California buyers must pay sales tax and DMV transfer fees. |

Why this could be the perfect time for Apple to make a car play
Fri, Aug 31 2018While the automotive and technology worlds have been pouring billions into autonomous vehicles (AVs) and preparing to bring them to market soon as shared robo-taxis, Apple has mostly sat on the sidelines. Of course, Apple is the last company to ever make its intentions known, and the super-secret tech cult giant hasn't been totally out of the AV game based on the clues that have slipped out of its Cupertino, Calif., citadel over the past few years. Related: Apple self-driving cars are real — one was just in an accident News first broke in 2015 that it had assembled an automotive development team, in part by poaching high-profile talent from car companies, to work on a top-secret self-driving vehicle project code-named Titan. (Thank you very much, Nissan.) Apple also subsequently broke cover by making inquiries into using a Northern California AV testing facility and receiving a permit to test AVs on public roads in California. But then as the AV race started to heat up in the last few years, Apple reportedly began scaling back its car activities by downsizing team Titan. More recently, Apple's car project has shown signs of life with the hiring a high-level engineer away from Waymo and luring one Tesla's top engineers and a former employee back to Apple. It also inked a deal with Volkswagen to provide a technology platform and software to convert the automaker's new T6 Transporter vans into autonomous shuttles for employees at tech company's new campus. That is a far cry from giving rides to Wal-Mart shoppers, like Waymo is doing as part of its AV testing in Phoenix. But this could be the perfect time for Apple to enter the AV market now that ride-sharing is reaching critical mass and automakers and others are planning to deploy fleets of robo-taxis. Apple could easily establish a niche as a high-end ride-sharing service – and charge a premium – given its cult-like brand loyalty and design savvy. The growth of car subscription models could also play in Apple's favor since is already has many people hooked on paying for phones in monthly installments – and eager to upgrade when a new and better model becomes available. To achieve this, some believe Apple will fulfill co-founder and CEO Steve Job's dream of building a car. And as the world's first and only $1 trillion company it's sitting on a mountain of cash that certainly gives it the means. But other tech darlings like Tesla and Google have discovered how difficult it can be to build cars at scale.
Toyota reclaims global sales crown, GM and VW not far behind
Mon, 28 Jan 2013TheDetroitBureau.com reports Toyota has retaken the global sales crown. The Japanese automaker turned out 9.75 million vehicles last year, putting it just ahead of General Motors, with 9.29 million vehicles. Volkswagen, meanwhile, filled out the podium by building 9.1 million units in 2012.
Still, Toyota numbers fell just below projections the automaker made earlier in the year, due largely to a fierce territorial dispute between Japan and China that has seen mainland buyers shun Japanese goods. But the news marks a substantial comeback for Toyota. The company fell to third place in the global production race in 2011 after tragic earthquake and tsunami caused several plant closures.
In Japan, Toyota enjoyed a sales increase of 35 percent over the previous year, while the company's worldwide sales jumped by 23 percent thanks in part to new additions to the Prius line. The automaker is forecasting yet another increase for 2013, with the company projecting to reach 9.91 million units this year. Neither Volkswagen nor GM have released their own projections just yet.
2015 Volkswagen GTI [w/video]
Fri, 26 Apr 2013The 911 Of Hot Hatches Takes The Compact Game To New Levels
North American car buyers get a bit of a slap in the face when it comes to delivery schedules for new the Volkswagen Golf and pumped-up GTI models. We'll just repeat the old chestnut: It's worth the wait... even though it still stinks. This time around, Western Europe is taking deliveries of the new Golf as we speak, and GTI deliveries start between May and July. North America doesn't get the Mk7 Golf or GTI until about July of 2014.
So we approached our first drive of the new GTI with this chip on our shoulder: "You're making us wait? Well, then at least give us the exact car we'll be able to buy. No compromises, mein freund." And so it was that we extracted nearly all of our drive impressions from behind the wheel of what, for the United States, will technically be a model year 2015 two-door Volkswagen Golf GTI Performance with the standard six-speed manual.
