It's time to sell our beloved 1997 Eurovan camper.
She's in good shape and she's got a lot of life left in her, but we just don't use her enough.

The camper is in great shape mechanically, but is only in fair shape cosmetically.

We've got a video up here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uU6KSVIDOlo

We've also got a huge photo album up here:  http://imgur.com/a/hUOAc

Below is everything we know that's wrong with the van.
We've tried to take pictures or video of all the described issues.
  • Small rust spot on driver's side door sill
  • Driver's side power mirror works, but is sluggish
  • The exterior vent covers and AC adapter cover is missing and/or damaged
  • There are dents in the rear door from a small fender bender
  • The hyrdraulic arms for the pop top are worn, and won't hold the popup erect (we are including a tennis racket that does the job well)
  • The inside cover of the sliding door is damaged and peeling off
  • There's a small tear in the misquito netting of one of the poptop windows
  • The poptop canvas is a bit moldy
  • The deep cycle camper battery needs to be replaced (not the primary vehicle battery)
  • The gear selector cover is cracking up
  • The driver's side rear light / blinker assembly is cracked (but works fine)
  • Two of the tires are pretty old, but probably will last you for a bit
Other than these issues, the camper is in good shape.
If you are at all familiar with Volkswagen Eurovan campers, then you know that they often go for $20,000 or more.
This is a chance to grab one for a lot less because of some small easily serviceable issues.

That being said, this is a used 16 year old vehicle.
We'd be happy to show it to you in person, if you are nearby.
We are also happy to answer any questions you have.

The following is included with the sale:
  • Tennis racket (aka auxillary popup stand)
  • Air conditioner and AC bench to hang off passenger window
  • Oil filter and air filter
  • Tempurpedic mattress cover
  • Various tarps
  • Eurovan camper manual

German judge 'inclined to dismiss' hedge fund lawsuit against Porsche

Fri, Feb 27 2015

Last year, around two dozen investors, including hedge funds, leveled a 1.4 billion euro ($1.95 billion at the time) lawsuit against Porsche in connection with the automaker's attempted takeover of Volkswagen in 2008. The Stuttgart Regional Court dismissed the case. Around 19 of those plaintiffs are heading back to court to appeal the ruling and still hope to get 1.2 billion euros ($1.4 billion). However, according to one German judge, the chances for success aren't any better this time around. "On balance it's our view that we consider the lawsuit, or the appeal, to be unpromising for several reasons," Gerhard Ruf, a judge in Stuttgart, said to Reuters. "We are inclined to dismiss the case." The court's ruling on the appeal will be announced on March 26. The investors' case hinges on Porsche's strategy surrounding the botched takeover. The sports car maker said that it wasn't trying to control VW, when in fact it was. These hedge funds had bet against Volkswagen stock, but the share price surged when Porsche's plan inevitably came to light. Investors have sued the sports car company multiple times since then in attempts to recoup billions of dollars. However, none of the lawsuits have been successful, whether attempted in the US or Germany. Former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and and CFO Holger Haerter might still stand trial for the alleged stock manipulation, though.

Volkswagen offers Beetle Classic, priced from $20,195*

Tue, 23 Sep 2014

The current Volkswagen Beetle already tries to be a fairly retro-looking ride by cribbing styling elements from the iconic original. However, for the new, limited-edition Classic model, VW is hopping into the time machine to grab even more vintage cues. The company is even cutting the price, perhaps in hopes of turning around flagging sales this year. You don't need to wait long for any of these upgrades either because the automaker says that the Classic goes on sale this week for $20,195, *excluding the $820 destination charge. That's $100 less than a bone-stock Beetle.
Starting as a standard Beetle with VW's 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 170 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, the Classic edition comes with a six-speed automatic and then adds some retro flair. It includes new vintage-look 17-inch wheels with simulated dog dish polished hubcaps over black spokes. It also comes with a rear spoiler, and the automaker is offering the model in Pure White, Black Uni, and Reflex Silver.
The interior mixes in a few more classic touches but includes modern amenities like a standard navigation system, satellite radio and multifunction steering wheel. However, the seats are finished in a two-tone design combining light brown leatherette on the sides and checked cloth centers, plus lumbar support for the driver's side. The shift knob and handbrake also get wrapped in leather.
