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!

World Car Of The Year down to its final four

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


Judges for the World Car of the Year Award have narrowed down the finalists to just four vehicles. Out of a total of 42 entries, only the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT-86 and Volkswagen Golf remain standing. For Volkswagen, this marks the second consecutive year the company has had an entry among the finalists, and the fourth time since 2009. In order to qualify, a vehicle must be on sale on two continents during the span of time between January 1, 2013 and May 30, 2013. A panel of 66 journalists from 23 countries then vote on the finalists.
Three vehicles have made the cut for the last round of voting on the 2013 World Performance Car as well, with the Cayman/Boxster and FR-S/BRZ/GT-86 running against the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Meanwhile, the Renault Zoe, Tesla Model S and Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid are duking it out for the World Green Car Award. Finally, the World Car Design of the Year Award is up for grabs between the Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, and the Mazda6. Check out the full press release below. Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.

FCA to pay buyers $1,700 to swap out of scandal-mired VWs

Tue, Oct 6 2015

FCA is trying to gain some sales from arch-rival VW in the competitive European market by offering potential buyers in Italy up to $1,700 to swap into an FCA group car. While the promotion isn't specifically targeted at TDI owners affected by the emissions scandal, it is clearly intended to turn dissatisfaction with VW's defeat device cheat into additional sales, Bloomberg reports. The 500-1,500 euro incentive (roughly $560-1,700, depending on vehicle) stacks on top of any other rebates or deals applicable, and applies if a buyer brings in any of Volkswagen Group's cars – including Audi, Skoda, and SEAT, among (many) others. As Bloomberg notes, it's normal for automakers to offer "conquest" deals – giving a buyer cash for trading in a competitor's vehicle. Those deals aren't usually limited to one company's products, however; FCA's program looks specifically to take advantage of VW's legal and public relations nightmare. FCA isn't the only automaker trying this trick in Italy. Automotive News Europe also reported that Ford is offering approximately $840 in incentives across its entire range to owners of VW vehicles seeking to trade in for a Ford. No word of yet as to whether these incentives will spread beyond Italy or to other automakers.Related Video:

2013 Volkswagen Beetle Turbo Convertible

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Less Flower, More Power
Pardon our political incorrectness for a moment, but the Volkswagen New Beetle was, undeniably, a "chick car." There was almost nothing that the New Beetle offered to enthusiasts (of either gender), and by the end of its run, VW had even stripped all of the exciting engines from the car's lineup. Looking to resurrect some of the excitement behind the Beetle, the third generation of the iconic car ditched the cuteness when the coupe debuted for 2012, and now the 2013 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible aims to show how much fun drivers can have without a top.
Celebrating almost six and a half decades of the Beetle convertible, Volkswagen is offering a trio of distinct special editions that celebrate three of the car's most popular decades (the '50s, '60s and '70s), but as one of the unofficial cars of the 1960s, it would almost be a crime not to test this version, right? Besides, this is also the only special edition to get the turbocharged engine. While our first drive of the 2013 Beetle Convertible was in the fuel-miser TDI variation, our two-week romp in the 2013 Beetle Convertible '60s Edition came just as peak convertible weather was kicking off down in Florida.
