I have owned this us for about a year. I bought it from a guy who had done the majority of the restoration, but he had to sell it because he had a baby on the way. I have always wanted a split window deluxe bus, so bought it to use as a regular driver and planned to slowly finish the interior while I used it. My tax bill this year was unexpectedly high, so sadly I am forced to give it up.  

The previous owner did all the hard work removing any rust and replacing with new sheet metal. The floors are solid, as is the undercarriage, so really all that needs to be done to have a great daily driver is to clean up the interior with an interior kit or whatever you want to do to finish it up.  The motor is strong and I believe everything works as it should. I have only driven it locally since i bought it- trips to the beach, etc.  but when I brought it home a year ago, it was an couple of hour trip on the freeway.  It performed great.  It has a CA title with an assigned California identification number. The registration just expired this past month, but I will have it up to date before the end of the auction. 

The good:
Strong motor- no leaks
Great looking, shiny paint with very few minor blemishes
Almost new Good Year brand tires ( including a spare tire) 
Virtually no rust- very clean undercarriage.
All deluxe body trim is there 
Jail bars are there
Cargo floor is newer, so no rust
Front floor looks like there was some small repair panels welded in. They used the appropriate panels, so it looks fine and is totally solid
Many new-looking seals on the pop out windows and windshield. Some of the glazing for the pop outs is looking a little old though. 

The bad:
 The speedometer cable recently broke. I will do my best to get it replaced before auction ends. Luckily it is a really simple fix on these cars.
There is a little sealant in the corner of the front windshields which indicates that it may have had a small leak at some point.  I have never driven it in the rain, but have never seen any leakage when washing the bus so I think it may not be an issue. 
Although the paint looks great, in certain light you can see some waviness where some previous rust repair had taken place ( in rocker area) I couldn't really get it to show up in any pictures. 
Seats have a couple of small wear holes. But they look fine and are very usable and firm

Please ask any questions as I may have forgotten things. Also I can take a picture if anything that needs more clarification. I will accept PayPal for a deposit, but not for balance ( unless you pay those fees). Car will need to be picked up, or you orchestrate shipping. Uship seems to be a good way to get an idea of shipping costs.

VW XL1 priced at $169,000 in UK, only 30 will be sold there

Wed, Jul 2 2014

Volkswagen has announced the pricing of its XL1 diesel plug-in hybrid for the UK, according to Car magazine. The small, uber-efficient two-seater will start at GBP98,515, or roughly $168,930 at current exchange rates. Additionally, only 30 units of the XL1 will be sold throughout the UK, giving it a rareness appropriate for its lofty price. It's nice to finally be able to stop speculating about the XL1's price. Even as recently as the first XL1 delivery in Germany, we were still mostly in the dark concerning the cost of the slippery VW. But is the price worth it, especially considering that the much sportier BMW i8 can be had for just a bit more (GBP99,895, or $171,460, in the UK)? Car seems to think so, noting that the XL1 is an eco and technology pioneer, and saying that its cost of ownership is "merely the price of progress." Plus, that includes the bragging rights of owning the world's most fuel-efficient car. The XL1's two-cylinder turbo-diesel engine displaces just eight-tenths of a liter and produces 47 horsepower. The internal combustion engine operates alongside a 26-horsepower electric motor powered by a 5.5-kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Despite its 2.64-gallon fuel tank, the XL1 has a maximum driving range of over 700 miles thanks to a 261-mpg rating (based on the European cycle). Unfortunately, we won't be able to do any bladder-busting, nonstop Chicago to DC road trips any time soon, as VW has no plans to bring the XL1 to North America - not that one would relish the experience of dicing it up with America's massive trucks and SUVs. If you want to drive one, you'll have to go to Europe, and you'd better have a very large piggy bank you're prepared to break open.

CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over

Mon, 03 Sep 2012


After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.
