Here is a super rare 1991 VW Vanagon GL Syncro Westfalia Bus, full camper!! This Van is equipped with the 4 cylinder, 2.1L motor, a 4 speed manual transmission and four wheel drive!!

The body of this van is very straight, no dents and no dings. The paint shines and looks good! No major rust. There are some very minor and superficial scratches, blemishes and rock chips in the paint/clear coat, expected for the age of the vehicle. As with most of these vans, the original paint started to oxidize and the van was re-painted some years back. There are a few places around the bus, mainly around the sliding door where the paint has chipped off, got scratched off since than and has been touched up, it's not a perfect match, please see pictures. Also, the van popped out of gear while being parked at a gas station and rolled into the pump. The damage is mostly on the passengers side front corner above the head light and some on the passenger side front door at the 4WD decal, please see pictures. The top has a few small cracks in the fiber glass in one small area on the passenger side, more towards the front Yakima rack, please see pictures.

The interior is in good shapeThere are no cracks in the dashboard, please see pictures. The headliner as well as the sun visors are in excellent condition. The drivers and passenger seats are in good shape, drivers seat has one small tear, please see pictures. The carpet is in good shape as well, no rips and only a few small stains, please see pictures. The power windows work good! All of the guages work perfect aside for the engine temperature, the bus has an after market temperature guage installed, please see pictures. The windshield is in good shape only a few chips and no cracks! There are a few small rips in the vinyl areas inside the bus and the top sleeping pad has a few small holes. The AC has been converted to the new system and works good and the van is equipped with factory power steering! The cruise control does not work. The bus has the Go Westy fridge-be-gone, so there is no fridge. The sink as well as the stove work great!! The canvas top has a few patches at the very back as well as one on the passenger side, there are a few tiny holes remaining, please see pictures. Also, the van will come with some nice extras including Go Westy 15alloy wheels, a very nice A&E Catalina 2500 Awning, a power inverter as well as a secondary battery, a very rare sliding door mosquito net (never used), a full bus cover, a VW Vanagon repair manual&shop book, an emergency triangle, Yakima racks and a first aid kit, please see pictures! 

The motor starts and runs great, fully re-built under 10k miles ago at a cost of over $5K including a brand new clutch pack!! The manual transmission shifts smooth. Also, this Syncro just has a brand new muffler&cat installed and passes California smog! Recently the bus also had a master cylinder installed and has Old Man Emu shocks. All 4 tires are in good shape, BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A Baja Champions, size LT 215/75R15 mounted on Go Westy alloy wheels!! This van holds a free and clear California title!! Records show a milage discrepancy on carfax, back in '92 the odometer broke. After being fixed at the dealer, it got reported to dmv, state law. The odometer became intermittent in 2007 when the van had 125k miles. It got replaced with a good used unit reading 591,124 on 9-16-2010 at the same time the new motor was installed. The odometer shows 600k at this time and the milage is estimated to be around 160k, on the high side.  

Please keep in mind that this is an older vehicle and is not in new condition!! Please expect normal wear and tear for a vehicle of this age and miles, this is not a brand new vehicle and it is not perfect!! If you are looking for a Super Rare, '91 VW Syncro Westfalia Full Camper 4x4, than this is the Bus for you!!

Volkswagen decides to keep Lamborghini and Ducati, transfers Bentley to Audi

Tue, Dec 15 2020

Investors in the market for a high-end Italian manufacturer that peddles performance will need to keep looking. Volkswagen announced it will hang on to Lamborghini and Ducati in the foreseeable future. Executives in Wolfsburg, Germany, are making far-reaching changes to the Volkswagen Group to reboot it with a big focus on technology. Credible rumors claimed that the people in charge of the carmaker wanted to carve out Lamborghini — which owns Ducati — and ultimately list it, or at least a chunk of it, on the stock market in order to fast-track the group's electrification strategy. Going electric is expensive, so selling Lamborghini would have helped fund the expansion, and high-octane supercars don't easily go hand-in-hand with zero-emissions cars. "Volkswagen needs to change from a collection of valuable brands and fascinating combustion-engine products that thrill customers with superb engineering to a digital company that reliably operates millions of mobility devices worldwide," summed up Herbert Diess, the group's boss, during a September 2020 meeting. His team ultimately decided not to fully divest both brands. It's too early to tell whether part of Lamborghini will be listed on the stock market, as some insiders have suggested, or if those plans are off the table, too. Changes are coming to Bentley as well. While it's not being spun off either, it will fall under the Audi umbrella starting on March 1, 2021. Volkswagen explained linking the two companies will "allow for synergies to be achieved as part of the electrification strategy of the two premium brands," a statement which suggests they will share a growing number of components during the 2020s. Unverified rumors claim that Bentley will notably get its own version of an ultra-luxurious electric SUV code-named Landjet that Audi is currently developing. We've reached out to Bentley for more details, and we'll update this story if we learn more. Bugatti's future wasn't mentioned in the release; unconfirmed reports suggest it will be traded for a stake in Croatian start-up Rimac. Volkswagen's supervisory board also reaffirmed its support for Diess, who was appointed CEO in 2018 and who has played a significant role in the company's transformation. Finally, the board approved the development of what a statement refers to a future leading electric vehicle sold by the Volkswagen brand that will be developed and manufactured in Wolfsburg.

UAW tactics called into question at VW's TN plant

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

The United Auto Workers is in hot water with some of the very workers it is trying to unionize at Volkswagen's Chattanooga assembly plant. According to The Tennessean, eight Volkswagen factory workers have filed complaints against the UAW with the National Labor Relations Board, claiming the union "misled or coerced" them into formally asking for union representation.
The UAW has instituted a major push at the Chattanooga plant to represent the 2,500 hourly laborers that build the VW Passat by using what's called a card-check process. The tactic is opposed by the National Right to Work Legal Defense foundation, the group representing the workers. The card-check process demands that a company recognize a union that obtains the signatures of more than half its workforce, according to The Tennessean. This tactic is in contrast to the more traditional route, which sees employees vote on union representation.
The workers filing the complaint claim that the UAW told them the cards merely called for a secret ballot, rather than an outright demand for union representation. Workers also allege that the UAW has made it overly difficult to reclaim their signed cards, some of which were signed so long ago that they have been rendered invalid. Although the cards can force a company's hand, federal law still allows the company to ask for a secret ballot before yielding to unionized workers.

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.
