1993 Volkswagen Eurovan Weekender Camper on 2040-cars
Emerson, New Jersey, United States
1993 Eurovan weekender package for sale. Please read the entire description for this
sale:
This vehicle has a been a wonderful VW for me. I've had it 5 years, had some great trips with my family, great concerts/tailgating. I am selling as I now have 5 VW’s in my driveway, 2 Vespas, and a London double decker bus in mid restoration. My wife and neighbors are 1/2 step away from killing me if something doesn’t go!!! Anyone who has had one of these knows how versatile they are. Seats 7. Sleeps 4. can fit a full 4'x8' sheet of drywall/plywood inside. Great for taking all the kids to sporting events, and i fit just about everything i ever needed from Home Depot into it with no problem!! I am sad to be listing it, but just too many things going on right now in my driveway ! Seats 2 up front, 5 in the rear (3 along bench seat, 2 in
rear facing seats). Rear seat folds
down, slides out, creating another bed. Top
pops up, but no interior camping gear such as a stove/fridge.
I am the 4th owner of this Eurovan and bought it
in 10/2009 with 145k miles (it now has 179k +/- as I’m still using it daily. It was originally an Arizona car, then to VA
in 2005, then to NJ in 2006.
It originally had an
automatic trans which was essentially non-functioning. I decided to take the manual transmission
out of my other eurovan (same year, hardtop, but with a bad body),
and put the manual trans into this camper.
The manual trans had ~150k when we put it in the camper (installing a
new clutch at the time). All work was
performed by RPM in Westwood, NJ in spring 2010.
Anyone who has had one of these knows how problematic the autotrans can be!! The other engine from the donor Eurovan also comes with this Auction. It has ~150k on it. The camper has run beautifully since the transmission
swapover and I use it as my daily driver as well as periodic trips to Virginia
Beach (about a 7 hour trip each way).
The camper is in decent shape but does need some attention,
especially on a couple of rust spots. I
will list out everything I know to be wrong with the van.
-horn is present but doesn’t work
-cruise control doesn't work -driver’s window won’t go up or down. The motor is fine; it’s an electrical issue
somewhere.
-rear speakers are present but unusable and need to be
replaced.
-AC doesn’t work (blows air, but not cold)
-Dashpod temperature gauge and gas gauge work
intermittently. Articles on various VW
user sights state it’s a loose connection and is fairly common and fixable.
-surface rust along vertical body seams on the side of the
camper in the rear.
-surface and rocker rust on passenger side front door (worst
area and perforated)
-surface rust on driver rocker area
-minor defects/broken pieces in trim work (see pictures)
-exhaust has several leaks.
Muffler is only a year old, but area around the catalytic converter has
leaks; not the cat itself though.
-handle to open the cargo door is broken. It functions fine, but the part that you
squeeze with the grip of your fingers is split in two.
-pop top canvas has some tears but can be repaired without
having to completely remove everything (I envisioned simply cutting out the bad
areas and sewing in a screened area, but never got around to it).
-Radio functions perfectly but is the originally cassette
player (hey, at least it’s not 8-track!)
Positive stuff:
-I have all service records since I’ve owned it, and a lot
of records from prior owners
-Tires are Kumho 235/65/16 104H which are rated at 104H (for heavier cars)
and have ~80% tread left on them. 1
extra tire comes with it (same as 4 on the van).
-All screens,curtains, and headrests are on or with the
camper
-Fiamma F45 retractable awning (works beautifully!) -Roof racks (but not for anything super heavy; maybe skis, surboard, or perhaps a canoe) -all cup holders are intact :) -
I encourage potential buyers to come see it, test drive it,
etc… I will also take it to a local shop/dealer of your choice to have them do
an overall inspection of the vehicle (potential buyers and I would have to agree how to handle this).
I will do my best to provide any additional pictures
and/or video requested.
Camper is also listed locally so I reserve the right to end
the auction early if there is a non-ebay buyer.
Camper is a nice vehicle with some issues due to age and wear and tear;
but all issues can be resolved.
I have set a reserve price which I feel is reasonable, in line with market prices MINUS the estimated costs to repair all items I listed as being problematic with the vehicle. I will edit auction to add a "buy it now price" if an acceptable offer is made (otherwise, we just let the auction runs its course) I am available to show/test drive it Mon/Tues/Sat/Sun of this week. I will NOT ship to Nigeria, will not accept checks from Nigeria, won't wire money to Nigeria, and won't deal with folks who's secretary "accidentally" sent me $5,000 too much. I also don't have a lot of patience for buyers who want to ding ebay sellers for differences in opinion on the condition of items being sold. If you want more detail, ask: I will send you as many pictures as I can. I will work with any buyer if there is truly something that I have overlooked, but if its just a buyer with an overinflated sense of entitlement, well, please just move along and save your drama for someone else. Happy bidding. I will do my best to answer questions in a timely fashion. Thank you!

European new car sales drop nearly 8% in first half of 2019
Thu, Jul 18 2019PARIS — European car sales dropped 7.9% in June, led by bigger declines for Nissan, Volvo and Fiat Chrysler (FCA), according to industry data published on Wednesday. Registrations fell to 1.49 million cars last month from 1.62 million a year earlier across the European Union and EFTA countries, the Brussels-based Association of European Carmakers said in a statement. Calendar effects resulted in two fewer sales days in most markets, accentuating the decline. Registrations for the first half closed 3.1% lower, ACEA said. For European carmakers, weakening demand at home compounds the pressure from a sharper contraction in China and emerging markets that may yet bring more profit warnings. NissanÂ’s aging model lineup contributed to a 26.6% June sales slump while Volvo Cars, owned by ChinaÂ’s Geely, saw deliveries tumble 21.7%. Registrations also fell 13.5% last month at FCA, 10.1% at BMW, 9.6% at Volkswagen Group and 8.2% for both Mercedes parent Daimler and FranceÂ’s PSA Group. The Peugeot makerÂ’s domestic rival Renault suffered less, posting a 3.9% decline. By the Numbers BMW Chrysler Fiat Nissan Volkswagen Volvo Peugeot Renault
Volkswagen could build plug-in hybrids in China
Sun, Apr 6 2014When you're Europe's largest automaker and your largest global market happens to be the one most notorious for its pollution (China), some solutions just present themselves. Volkswagen may be heeding that call. During the upcoming Beijing Motor Show, the company is expected to announce plans to produce plug-in hybrid electric vehicles in China, Reuters says, citing sources within the company. Few details have emerged, though the plug-ins will likely be produced at VW's Foshan factory in South China, which currently makes the Golf and Audi A3 and has plans to eventually make 600,000 vehicles annually. News has been percolating for a while, as Oliver Schmidt, general manager engineering and environmental office for Volkswagen Group of America, said last March that the company was planning at least two plug-in hybrid lines under the VW badge (and another three with its Audi and Porsche affiliates), including possibly a Touareg and Jetta PHEV. VW said late last month that it was looking to speed up development of "particularly eco-friendly models" made by Shanghai Volkswagen as well as developing a "new, very eco-friendly vehicle" with First Automotive Works (FAW). Earlier this year, VW unveiled its Golf GTE plug-in hybrid at the Geneva Motor Show. That model has a 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine and an electric motor to provide 201 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The car can travel as many as 81 miles on electric power alone.
VW outsells GM in China for first time in 8 years
Fri, 26 Oct 2012In 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.
