Answering a few questions it has a 1997 Subaru Impreza dual overhead cam engine that has a timing belt which was replaced before the install. You can install ac in the van for about 1000 to 1500 personally I never needed ac on the east coast. The stove, sink, and the fridge all work but it has no propane in it right now. I daily drive the van everyday to work accruing 50 miles and it has not had any issues. I am moving in January and would like to sell it before that, if it doesn't sell then I am keeping it in storage until I get back. Make me a reasonable offer and it is yours!! Here is a 1982 originally an air cooled Volkswagen Vanagon camper with a 2.0L Subaru liquid cooled engine!! The car was my father's and he passed away in 2012, the van was his baby. I got the van in 2013 and began the Subaru conversion beginning this year. It is using a Kennedy Engineering frame, Go Westy stainless steel coolant lines, Kennedy Engineering trans adapter plate with stock Vanagon transmission. The engine is a low mileage (40k) Subaru JDM 150Hp 2.0L with plenty of power!! The interior was refinished in 2010 and is in excellent condition, the front seats are mint, the dash is in great condition, front carpet is faded, and has a built in rear DVD player with dedicated screen. Has a nice CD player with high quality Kicker speakers. The van has spent its entire life in the south so has no typical Vanagon rust. It does have a little surface rust here and there, I have not painted the vehicle so the prospective owner can see the original body. The Subaru engine also has the capability to add AC and power steering if you need it!! This truly is an awesome van and I would definitely keep it if it wasn't for the U.S. Army. We are constantly moving and it is not practical for our family right now. If you are anywhere between North Carolina and Vermont on the east coast then I might be able to deliver the vehicle to you. (Going to Vermont in January) If you decide to have me deliver it then I will require a deposit up front!! I have described the vehicle as good as I can but if you have any further questions you can call me at 216-215-0518 Also it has a front tow bar system which allows you to tow the Vanagon!! New parts are as following Fuel Tank Walbro 255 fuel pump Fuel level sender Battery Bosch hi torque starter oil pressure and water temp gauge Stock exhaust Catalytic converter 2 oxygen sensors All coolant lines Radiator Overflow tanks Clutch Flywheel Throwout bearing Clutch Slave cylinder Air filter Fuel filters MAF adapter Kennedy Engineering exhaust manifold I am sure there are more parts that I am forgetting...

Next VW GTI to get 10-speed dual-clutch gearbox

Wed, Nov 26 2014

Following on Volkswagen's official announcement that it was working on a ten-speed, dual-clutch transmission, Auto Express has it on "good authority" that the new transmission will end up in the next GTI, GTD and Golf R. The brand's current seven-speed will be retained for lesser eight-generation Golfs. While the new gearbox won't be limited to just the higher-end Golf range, the new hatchback, expected in 2017, will be the first to get it, Auto Express reports. The new DSG is the same size as the Volkswagen Group's seven-speed dual-clutch, and will easily fit into VAG's MQB platform, so we should expect it to filter into the rest of the Group's vehicles, much like the seven-speed 'box has. The ten-speed is likely to see applications beyond even the small cars of the MQB platform. The gearbox can handle 405 pound-feet of torque, according to AE, making its application in larger offerings such as the gas-powered MLB cars and crossovers a likelihood. Beyond the new gearbox, Volkswagen is also toying with mild-hybrid tech for the standard Golf and better batteries for the e-Golf. As we said, expect the new Golf to arrive in European markets in 2017, with the current Euro-market Golf getting updated next year. As for the US, we wouldn't be surprised if VW followed the trail blazed by the Mark 7, with a North American arrival for the eight-gem Golf slated for a year or so after sales in Europe begin.

VW outsells GM in China for first time in 8 years

Fri, 26 Oct 2012

In case you didn't know, Volkswagen is hell-bent on becoming the largest automaker in the world. The German carmaker has inched closer to that goal, having outsold General Motors in China last quarter for the first time in eight years.
Volkswagen's sales in China, its largest marker, increased by 21 percent last quarter to 704,991 units. Those numbers almost tripled GM's third-quarter growth, and were enough to beat out the American automaker's 664,765 sales. GM, however, still leads in year-to-date sales in China by a slim margin of around 77,000 units. The Asian nation also happens to be GM's largest market, and according to the report in Automotive News, China's car market may grow to be larger than the US, Japan and Germany combined in three years' time.
About the news his company was bested in China by VW last quarter, GM CEO Dan Akerson is quoted saying, "It's not whether you're the biggest car manufacturer. It's whether you want to be the most profitable." It should be noted of these figures that GM includes truck figures, yet excludes Hong Kong and Macau from its Chinese sales numbers, while VW does just the opposite. Through September of this year, Volkswagen had 5 of the 10 best selling vehicles in China. GM boasted three of the cars on that list.
