Mostly restored and in excellent condition.  Daily driver in southern CA, we take this bus anywhere.  No problems on trips, freeway traffic, or beach traffic, ... it runs and drives excellent.  Everything works.  Strong rebuilt engine, goes up hills and mountains easily, had it done at 122k miles.  No rust, all solid original with new paint - original color.  When painted I had new rubber seals installed on all windows, and had a new windshield installed.  New fuel filter, fuel filler neck/ hoses, etc.   Only thing this bus could use is new cushioning in the front seat.  The seat is deceiving, it looks great on the outside but the padding is shot.  We love this bus but must sell to help finish a home transaction.  Will buy another down the road.      

- 2.0L engine recently rebuilt by Canyon Porsche/Volkswagen - a premium VW specialty shop in Laguna Beach (40 yrs).  All Receipts. 
- Fuel injected, passes tough CA smog test no problem whatsoever - just renewed registration in June and passed first attempt.  
- 4 speed manual transmission.
- No rust, all original panels.  The only bad spot on bus is the battery tray, not visible but has corroded in spots.  I put a piece of wood under battery so its secure and works great.
- Good quality paint job.
- Fuel filler neck, filler tubes, and fuel filter are all new, with new locking gas cap.  No gas smell in this bus and safe to drive.
- Many new and replaced parts over the years, great overall condition.

Bus is listed for sale locally as well as ebay so auction will end as soon as sold.  Don't hesitate to make offer or arrange to inspect the bus in person, (949) 362-0068 (does not accept text).  Over the last couple years I've had many people want to buy this bus, now I must unfortunately sell it.  I will be happy to help buyer with shipper or storing bus for up to a month at my house.  Thank you for looking.

VW previews retouched 2014 Touareg for Beijing

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

Volkswagen is in New York this week showing off its new Jetta and Golf TDI SportWagen concept. But in less than a week, the German automaker will be off to China for the Beijing Motor Show, where it will showcase the revised Touareg you see here.
A subtle update on the Touareg that's been on the market in its current form for four years now, the facelifted model features reworked styling front and rear, an updated interior and a host of new technologies to keep it current in the highly competitive SUV market. Among those new features are larger bi-xenon headlights, coasting function, Google Maps integration and a post-collision braking system designed to prevent a second crash.
VW will offer the new Touareg with a variety of engines around the world, but in North America it'll carry over the same six-cylinder powertrain options as the outgoing model: a 3.6-liter V6 with 280 horsepower, a 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 with 240 hp (though torque isn't listed, we'd expect around 406 pound-feet, same as last year) and a hybrid that marries a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 to an electric motor that combine to deliver 380 hp.

Skoda unveils Volkswagen Up!-based Citigo

Tue, 27 Sep 2011

This is the all-new Skoda Citigo, and if you're thinking that it looks rather familiar, that's because its Volkswagen-badged kin recently debuted at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. That's right, the long-rumored Skoda version of Volkswagen's new Up! city car has finally arrived.
Buyers will have a choice of two 1.0-liter three-cylinder engines - one with 59 horsepower, the other with a 74 hp and a blistering 106 mph top speed - both mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Powerful they are not, but these three-bangers should prove to be extremely efficient, with Skoda quoting fuel economy numbers of 62.8 and 60.1 miles per gallon, respectively (on the European cycle).
Being a Skoda, the Citigo will go on sale in its home market of the Czech Republic this fall, with the rest of Europe getting the car next summer. Follow the jump for Skoda's official release.

New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise

Mon, 18 Feb 2013

Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?
