1984 water cooled fuel injection VW Vanagon Westfalia camper van with pop top. All in great condition, comes with roof racks, heat, 2 burner stove top  & refrigerator in good condition, all tables, sink with water pump, auxiliary battery for camping, spare tire,  fairly new tires, new clutch, fairly new brakes, new thermostat, cooling fan switch, water temp sensor. Upholstery newly redone including all the damaged interior panels, and has a new canvas 3 window pop-top.  Motor runs great, very smooth on the road.  Low mileage, 118,000+, well cared for so I think it will keep on with yearly maintenance.  It has mostly been a CA vehicle that I purchased a few years ago, so very minimal rust, mainly a little around the rear windows.  I really enjoy the vehicle, but I am selling due to recently developed health issues that keep me from enjoying it like I used to do for several years. 

Accessories include:

Sink/faucet with electric water pump, refrigerator, two burner stove top. Lots of cabinets, shelves and a closet. Interior and exterior clean and in good condition, as you can see from the pictures. Sleeps up to four people. (The upper bunk under the pop-top is especially nice in the VW Campers.) Two front, swivel chairs with center table.  Rear bench seat that folds down to a double bed. Wider bed under pop-top. Closable screens all-around. Luggage compartment, front, top of vehicle. Outside connections for city water and electricity. Propane tank and filler connection. These campers are known as the, "Swiss Army Knife" of RVs, because there is so much in a manageable space. Probably no other camper drives with the agility and fun, almost like a sports car and better than an SUV.

OPTIONS & ACCESSORIES: Non-Power Windows & Door Locks, Auxiliary battery that automatically separates from vehicle battery when parked, yet charges again when camper is started with primary battery.  This battery powers refrigerator, lights, etc. to be used when not driving.  3 window pop-top Canvas has recently been replaced.  Swivel Table with Swing Bar & Window Screens & Rear Bug Screen, Privacy Curtains.  6 ply truck tires are reasonably new and in great condition with lots of tread and life left.  4 speed manual transmission makes for easy driving and handling and shifts very smoothly and quietly giving the maximum usage of engine power.   Yakima lockable roof rack with 2 bars for surfboards, or kayaks, etc.

The Vanagon Campers were made from 1980 to 1991. The camping aspects of these models, which remained unchanged for those years, are unsurpassed in their utility and efficiency, in providing satisfying and fun camping trips. Being in a VW Camper is like sitting in the observation car on a train, because of the openness of the many windows.

The VW Camper mechanical aspects saw many changes over the years, 1980-1991. The beginning of 1983 was the last year of air cooled engines, and this vehicle is one of the first water cooled VW Vanagons which is a lot better than the air cooled sister vans.  This Camper is for someone who is looking for a fun vehicle and wants to experience a Camper for having years of wonderful camping trips. This camper has just a little more than 118,000 miles.

Because of the relatively low mileage (less than 4,000 miles per year over the thirty years) and regular maintenance, there are minimal mechanical issues.  It has been thoroughly gone through and all mechanical issues have been repaired.  The Vanagon camping models are becoming increasingly scarce and one in this level of mechanical condition is even harder to find. Make it yours and have a great time camping anywhere in the World.   

Check out all the pictures included in the listing.  There are some small amounts of rust and some minor dents in the body, but for a 30 year old vehicle, it is in good condition.

Engine runs really great!

Trump reportedly says he wants to wipe German cars off the U.S. map

Thu, May 31 2018

BERLIN/FRANKFURT — A report that U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to pursue German carmakers until there are no Mercedes-Benz rolling down New York's Fifth Avenue dented shares in the luxury car manufacturers on Thursday. An excerpt from German magazine Wirtschaftswoche's article, which cited several unnamed European and U.S. diplomats but did not include any direct quotes, could not be independently verified, while a U.S. Embassy spokesman in Berlin referred questions to Washington. The news and current affairs magazine said Trump had told French President Emmanuel Macron in April that he aimed to push German carmakers out of the United States altogether. Macron's administration in Paris declined to comment on the report. The Trump administration last week opened a so-called Section 232 trade investigation into vehicle imports, which could result in a 25 percent tariff on cars on the same "national security" grounds Washington used to impose metals duties in March. This could destroy exports by German carmakers, which control 90 percent of the U.S. premium market and are the biggest European Union exporters of cars to the United States. BMW owns Rolls-Royce, while Daimler has Mercedes-Benz, and Volkswagen controls Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche and Audi. Daimler, BMW and Audi declined comment. Porsche was not immediately available for comment. BMW shares were trading 0.5 percent lower at 0939 GMT, while Daimler and VW's shares were down 1 percent and 1.6 percent respectively, underperforming Germany's blue-chip DAX. Trump has railed against German carmakers before. And in early 2017, in an interview with German newspaper Bild, he said he would impose 35 percent tariffs on imported cars. At the time, the president called Germany a great car producer but said that the business relationship with the United States was an unfair one-way street. Germany's auto industry association VDA says its members exported 657,000 vehicles to North America last year, with total exports of vehicle components, cars, engines, as well as second-hand vehicles totaling 31.2 billion euros in 2016. Imports from the United States to Germany amounted to 7.4 billion euros, meaning a trade deficit of 23.8 billion euros the VDA's latest available figures show. However, German brands also have huge factories in the United States, where they built 804,000 cars last year, VDA said, providing jobs for U.S. workers. Berlin has reacted angrily to the U.S.

VW previews retouched 2014 Touareg for Beijing

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

Volkswagen is in New York this week showing off its new Jetta and Golf TDI SportWagen concept. But in less than a week, the German automaker will be off to China for the Beijing Motor Show, where it will showcase the revised Touareg you see here.
A subtle update on the Touareg that's been on the market in its current form for four years now, the facelifted model features reworked styling front and rear, an updated interior and a host of new technologies to keep it current in the highly competitive SUV market. Among those new features are larger bi-xenon headlights, coasting function, Google Maps integration and a post-collision braking system designed to prevent a second crash.
VW will offer the new Touareg with a variety of engines around the world, but in North America it'll carry over the same six-cylinder powertrain options as the outgoing model: a 3.6-liter V6 with 280 horsepower, a 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 with 240 hp (though torque isn't listed, we'd expect around 406 pound-feet, same as last year) and a hybrid that marries a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 to an electric motor that combine to deliver 380 hp.

VW reveals Outback-rivaling Golf Alltrack ahead of Paris

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

The Volkswagen Passat Alltrack is getting a baby brother at this year's 2014 Paris Motor Show in the form of a new Golf Alltrack. Like its larger sibling, the little wagon is supposed to offer light-duty off-road driving ability combined with a more rugged look to show it off.
To give the Golf Alltrack that soft-road ability, VW is outfitting the wagon with its latest 4Motion all-wheel drive system from Haldex. The setup can decouple power from the rear-axle when not needed to save fuel. To further improve traction, the Alltrack gets VW's electronic differential lock, and the car can individually brake its inside wheel during hard cornering for better handling.
Volkswagen also wants the Alltrack to be able to visually show that it can handle getting away from the pavement, even though it starts life as a standard Golf wagon. That means jacking up the suspension an extra 0.75 inches and adding black moldings all the way around the car. There are also redesigned bumpers for the front and rear and silver underbody protection, plus new accents like anodized roof rails and silver mirror caps. The interior is essentially unchanged from the wagon, except for altered trim and Alltrack badges.
