Hello,
I'll try and explain as much as possible but please see the pictures to make your own assessment or message me if you have more questions.

I purchase this vehicle and as most people don't have enough time to work on it as I would like. It's actually a great vehicle and great place to start if you plan to restore or just drive it as is. I didn't want a vehicle that needed an engine or transmission issues. I wanted to use it the moment I got it and I have. I have driven this vehicle as far as 200 miles at one time without issues. I have camped in it in the local mountains and the beach. It really has been a lot of fun. As I'm sure most of you know these classics are getting harder and harder to find.

This camper or weekender if you prefer is a Riviera, so the top pops straight up. Its got much more room than the Westphalia models. There is an extension to the bunkbed to make it longer but my son didn't need it. The lower bunk is very comfortable as well. The interior is pretty complete to include the curtains. The canvas top could use a fixing or replacement but I've used it open with no issues, just more air. The vehicle has a newer CD player and speakers that have long wires to move them around. I had planned on adding a folding table and extra seat but didn't get that far. The vehicle has some bad window tint on it and I just started to remove some of it. You may see some of the differences in the pictures as I've been removing a little at a time.

The vehicle has rust as most of these that are un-restored do. I'll point out the bigger parts of the body. You will see that the front tire was removed and there are 4 holes there. Some surface rust all about the body. The right rear taillight was "tapped" so there is body damage there and needs a new light but the housing still works and lights up. The passenger door has a dent in it and when you open that door there is some fiberglass repair in the lower wheel well area. When you pop the top the roof is pretty rusted but I haven't seen any leaks coming into the vehicle as of yet. Been through some rain and multiple car washes. The front of the camper top needs to be repaired. It's all there just needs to be pushed back and re-glassed. You will then need to rivet it back to the roof. I have a tie strap holding it down and have many miles on it like that without issues.

Mechanics have been good for me. As I stated before when I purchased it I wanted to drive it and I have... It has been up and down the coast a few times and inland as well to the local mountains. It has never left we stranded, except for the tires that came on it. It had passenger tires on it when I changed all to LT tires. This should give you many enjoyable miles on it. If you didn't know we've been in a heat wave here in Cali too and that's never been an issue sitting in LA traffic either. It leaks some engine oil but I check it every time I drive it, but it's never been low on oil.

It's been a really fun vehicle and have already had so many great memories on it. I wish you happy bidding and hope you have the same great times with it as I have.

Feel free to message me if you need additional information.

VW Up Buggy may be headed to showrooms

Tue, 02 Jul 2013

Volkswagen showed six conceptual takes on its Up at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, one of those being the Up Buggy. Although few will probably remember it, VW has not forgotten it, applying for a patent for the Meyers Manx revival roadster way back in March 2012 and being approved in June of this year, according to a report in Autocar. That will give the automaker a 14-year lock on the design while it decides whether to move forward with a reboot of its past.
A patent doesn't mean the Up Buggy will ever move beyond the sheet-of-paper stage, but Autocar says VW is studying the market to see if a production version is feasible. We can't see North America ever getting it, but even so, we wouldn't complain if they made it - especially if they put an exposed engine in back that was set off by 18-inch-long twin tailpipes jutting straight up into the air. However, for a company that aims to be the world's number-one automaker by 2018, a niche vehicle for its mass-market brand would be a surprising use of resources.

Volkswagen Group looks to add ridesharing brand to portfolio

Fri, Sep 30 2016

Volkswagen is rapidly trying to put the ongoing diesel scandal behind it at the Paris Motor Show with the unveiling of the automaker's electric I.D. Concept. In addition to unveiling the EV, the automaker also announced that it established a yet-to-be-named subsidiary for ridesharing purposes. The new brand will be VW Group's 13th, and will add mobility services to in the form of a carpooling service, similar to that of Uber and Lyft. This will include teaming up with Gett – a cab-hailing startup that operates in roughly 70 cities worldwide, which includes New York City, that was previously known as GetTaxi. Earlier this year, VW invested $300 million in the company. In addition to ridesharing, VW Group claims it is also hard at work on its own shuttle service as the brand aims to become a leader in urban mobility services by 2025. The name of the 13th brand and more information on the subsidiary will be released in November. VW Group also announced plans to give Gett drivers in Moscow, Russia "preferential terms" on a Volkswagen Polo, Volkswagen Jetta, Skoda Octavia, or Skoda Rapid. VW Group's 13th brand sounds similar to Mercedes-Benz's Vision Van Concept, which the automaker would allow consumers to lease and purchase the vehicle, as well as rent its services on a short-term basis. While the Vision Van Concept is a commercial vehicle that has delivery drones on the roof to aid deliveries, VW Group's shuttle service sounds more like autonomous buses to ferry people around. Now that diesels are dead, Volkswagen has quickly embraced the future, where autonomous and electric vehicles coexist. Related Video: Related Gallery Volkswagen I.D.
