2002 - Volkswagen Eurovan on 2040-cars
Dahlgren, Illinois, United States
2002 Volkswagen Eurovan Weekender Pop-Top 115,000 miles/185,000 kms 2.8 VR6 Engine It is with extreme reluctance that I offer a much beloved 2002 Westfalia for sale. I am a fanatic of older German cars and have had a life-long passion for VW campers. The van has never seen winter, has only been highway driven and maintained meticulously with up to date service (synthetic oil only). It is in excellent rust-free mechanical and physical shape. The original paint is virtually flawless and the interior even smells new. The interior shows no signs of fading whatsoever; this vehicle has spent the majority of its life indoors. The undercarriage has been regularly rust-proofed at Krown and is spotless and easy to service as a result. All seats look and support as if they were absolutely brand new. Service over the years has been performed by Bytek Volkswagen in Ottawa then Don Valley Volkswagen and Chris Symes at S&S Motors in Toronto (Euro specialists). All original books come with the vehicle and most of the service history is in the file with complete details available for the past three years. The van needs no conversion work for U.S. registration; even the speedometer is already in kilometers and miles. To the best of my knowledge it also shouldn’t require any work for safety certification in any jurisdiction; the tires have about 80% tread remaining, the rotors and brakes have very few miles on them. Features: - Comfortably seats 7 (or 6 without the additional jump seat in place behind the front passenger) - Sleeps 4 - Built-in 12v cooler mounted under jump-seat located behind driver’s seat - Power windows - Heated front seats - Cruise control - All original privacy curtains included along with full rear hatch screen, child safety barrier for upper deck and rare side door zip-up screen. - Auxilary battery (under driver’s seat) to power interior lights amenities without draining main battery. Additional features: - VW factory tow package including flat multi-pin trailer lighting cable that appears to be virtually unused - VW mudflaps - VW dealer installed rear parking sensors - UV block tinted windows - A full set of after-market German louvered window inserts for secure, rain-free ventilation from the front and side windows when parked or camping (pictured unmounted in trunk) - Built in 12-CD changer - Dash-mounted VW fold down shelf/cup holder - One year old front VW Eurovan-specific soft rubber mats - All weather carpet mat for rear passenger floor (not pictured) - Clear 3M scuff guards installed and like new on both front door thresholds A few items to point out: - This is not a brand new vehicle; are a few light marks in places thanks to less conscientious folk in parking lots and very minor chips on the front from highway travel. - As pictured, the upper tent has some easily repairable issues where the front panel has been, unfortunately, pinched by the pop-top closing mechanism. - At some point the previous owner (I am the second) had a valance mounted over the side door. When the valance was removed, the screw holes were sealed with silicone. These are barely noticeable and would be covered if a new valance were to be installed. The Eurovan MV Weekender is one of the most versatile vehicles ever produced. In addition to the purely recreational capabilities of the van, I often used to sit (and buckle up) in the back and do hours of work with my laptop on the table while my wife drove on long trips (see photo), using my phone as a wifi hotspot and an inverter plugged into one of the rear 12v jacks for power. VW vans may not often be thought of as mobile business centers, but that’s exactly what they can be when you need them to!

VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt
Sun, 08 Sep 2013
Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.
2018 Buick Regal TourX vs. wagon competitors: How it compares on paper
Wed, Jan 31 2018To the great joy of auto enthusiasts nationwide, wagons are back! Well, at least there's a few more of them. The latest is the 2018 Buick Regal TourX, which we just had our first drive of and found to actually be quite good with pleasant handling, solid power and plenty of space. But, how does the TourX compare to other cladded wagons? Well, let's dive into the specs and fire up the ol' spreadsheet maker for Buick Regal TourX vs Subaru Outback vs Audi A4 Allroad vs VW Alltrack vs Volvo V60 Cross Country. True, some are from mainstream brands and others are from luxury marques, but Buick straddles both realms, so it's appropriate to look at them all. Of course, there's more to these cars than just the numbers, but they're still important, and in the case of this class of crossover-aping wagons, can vary more than you'd expect. So check out the specs in the chart below, which are followed by more analysis and photos of each. Discover and compare other wagons and crossovers with our Car Finder and Compare tools. Engines and Transmissions When comparing powertrains, the Buick is far-and-away the winner as far as torque is concerned, and is in a nearly three-way tie for horsepower. Its 295 pound-feet of torque is 22 lb-ft more twist than the next-most-grunty Audi A4 Allroad. And in regards to power, the Buick's 250-horsepower engine is only down 6 hp to the most-powerful Subaru and its optional naturally aspirated flat-six, and just 2 hp less than the Audi. At the bottom of the pack is the Subaru Outback with the standard naturally aspirated flat-four, which only makes 174 hp and 174 lb-ft of torque. That may not seem too bad compared with the VW Golf Alltrack, which only makes 170 hp and 199 lb-ft of torque, but the VW is much lighter by between 200 and 300 pounds. Transmission-wise, there's quite a bit of variation in the group. The Regal TourX and the Volvo V60 Cross Country rely on eight-speed automatics, all Outbacks use CVTs, and the Alltrack and Allroad have dual-clutch automated manual transmissions with six and seven gears, respectively. But for people that want to shift for themselves, the only option is the Volkswagen, which offers a traditional six-speed manual transmission on the Golf Alltrack. Cargo and Interior Space One of the main reasons to buy a wagon is for the body style's large cargo capacity. And for the most space for things and stuff, you'll want to check out the Subaru and the Buick.
VW recalls 220,000 Atlases, Atlas Cross Sports for airbag defect [Updated]
Thu, Mar 31 2022[Update: Audi of America has confirmed that no U.S. models are among the recall population for plug-in hybrid fire issue.] Volkswagen has issued yet another recall for its Atlas SUV, this time for side airbags that may not deploy correctly in an accident due to a problematic connection in one of the vehicle's wiring harnesses. The campaign covers 222,892 Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport models built for the 2019-2023 model years. The issue stems from a connection with the wiring harness that runs from the A-pillar into the door. VW says that harnesses produced by one of its suppliers were not built with additional measures to prevent movement at the connection point. Small movements can cause abrasion of the metal contacts which could lead to a whole host of electronic misadventures, including the potential for airbag deployment to be delayed in a crash. "Micro-movement of the wire harness (terminal A-Pillar to front door) can result in damage to the wire terminal surface. Damage to the surface can [result] in fretting corrosion which may cause sporadic interruption in the electrical connection to the components of the front door," VW said in its defect notice. "The airbag warning light may illuminate if a malfunction is detected. Other symptoms of a sporadic interruption of the affected electrical connection can be: inadvertent rolling down windows, inadvertent park brake engagement at low speeds (below approx. 3km/h or 1.8mph), warning regarding faulty door sensor," VW said. Not every model built within the range defined above is subject to the recall; terminals from other suppliers were manufactured with the necessary safeguards in place. If you own a 2019-2023 Atlas or Atlas Cross Sport, keep your eyes peeled for a notification from VW regarding the campaign, likely some time in early-mid May. PHEV problems Across the Atlantic, the VW Group mothership confirmed that it will recall more than 100,000 plug-in hybrid models worldwide to address a fire risk. The recall was launched in response to 16 reported incidents of fires stemming from insufficient insulation of the PHEV battery pack that allows the engine cover to make contact if it is not completely secure. If that happens, the heat from the battery can ignite the engine cover. The recall will cover PHEVs build by VW, Audi, Seat and Skoda, Reuters reports, including the VW Passat, Golf, Tiguan and Arteon — plug-in variants of which are not sold in the United States.
