1991 Volkswagon Vanagon , Vw Bus, Gl , Almost No Rust Imaculate Orginal Interior on 2040-cars
The bus was my daily driver until I listed it on ebay. It was sold on ebay and unregistered and i had the insurance removed, However the wining bidder didn't pay and ignored all contact so now it up for auction again.
The question I have recived most often is would I get in and drive it 5-6 states away and back. The answer is yes. It has never let me down since I owned it. The bus has been sitting for 10 days now with only two starts for 3 minutes. Mileage is currently 145,066 , it has no frame rust and only minimal rust in the usual Vanagon areas. It is though almost rust free. The interior vynil floor is a beautiful addition to this bus and looks great. The paint is orginal butthe clear coat has faded and is peeling in spots. The clear coat is long gone from the roof. The bus is in great shape and even though it is not a showroom condition, everything is unmanipulated. The Bus was owned by a local church for a very long time. Through the previous auctions I was informed the interior is not orginal to the year. However I am not a VW expert and have listed this bus to the best of my capabilities. VIN# WV2YB0259MG001135 New Parts: It has new Fuel injectors Fresh Transmission Service New Transmission Pan Gasket New Transmission Filter. New Ignition New Bosch Fuel Regulator New/Rebuild Airflow Meter. New Battery New Wiper Blades in the front. New Fuel Pump New Pre Pump Filter New Main Fuel Filter New Temp2 Sensor New Spark Plugs Brand New Window Tint. ( If its illegal in your state it will be easy to take off as it is so new. But again it took me 8 hours to get the 15 year old tint off. It looks much better now. It has LED Light Strip installed that just needs to be hard wired. Changes Colors and goes to the music has a remote as well so you can light up the whole bus now. I did reground the bus and cleaned off all ground connections and made new clean connections. The sale will include a few parts including another AFM these are valued at $200 - $350 each There is also a Computer im including but its from an earlier bus that does not work with this one (perhaps sell it and make 100 Buxs), A known to be working used Fuel regulator a few belts, a used but known working fuel pump and used but working spare coil. I keep these parts under the rear bench because you never know. Known Issues. The O2 sensor is not connected Windshield has a crack, Antenna is Bent/Broken AC was bypassed when I bought it PO stated the clutch was loud but was still working. Power Steering was also bypassed by PO because it had a small leak on the front rack. Both items have been left as is since i have owned the bus. Cruise Control never used lever on steering column seems as if it is disconnected. but all components are intact and present. |

2013 Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid
Tue, 12 Feb 2013More Fun Than A Prius, Less Sensible Than A TDI
Let's have some fun, and do some math. We're talking pretty rudimentary stuff, multiplication and division, to figure out if the upcoming Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid can make a baseline case for itself against two very strong competitors in this segment. The competitors in question, at least for now, are two more Jettas: the diesel-drinking TDI and the fit-for-the-masses SE with VW's long-serving 2.5-liter engine.
To keep the equations clean and simple (hey, we're writers), we'll calculate based on the most flattering EPA miles per gallon stat from highway driving for all cars, assume a healthy 20,000 miles driven per year, and factor in today's average cost for the respective fuels these three require: diesel (TDI), regular (SE) and premium (Hybrid). We'll also start with the base prices for all models.
Sunday Drive: Variety is the spice of life
Sun, Nov 12 2017If there's any one new vehicle the entire world is anxiously waiting for, it's the Jeep Wrangler. Yes, of course the iconic off-roader has a loyal following here in America, but you could plop a Wrangler pretty much anywhere on the globe and everybody will know what it is. Put simply, the redesigned 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL has big, muddy shoes to fill, and the readers of Autoblog are just as interested in the Wrangler's rebirth as anyone else. Moving along, we were fortunate enough last week to spend a bit of time in nearly every version of the venerable Volkswagen Golf all in one day. There isn't a Golf we don't like, but there's one, easily identifiable by its three-digit name, that stands above all the rest: GTI. We think it's the best Golf you can buy, even if there's an R-badged variant that slots above the GTI in VW hierarchy. Rounding out our recap are three vehicles that could hardly be more different. The 2019 GMC Sierra, which was seen wearing pretty light camouflage, is a truck. The Lamborghini Terzo Millennio – which isn't going to go on sale, ever, at any price – is a conceptual supercar. And the Honda CB1000R is a retro-themed naked standard motorcycle. Variety really is the spice of life. 2018 Jeep Wrangler spy shot mega gallery Driving nearly every VW Golf: Base, GTI, R, Alltrack — here's what we learned 2019 GMC Sierra spied sporting just a thin wrapping The Lamborghini Terzo Millennio is a brutally fantastic EV supercar concept Honda unveils 2 new motorcycles, including retro-flavored CB1000R Image Credit: Brian Williams GMC Honda Jeep Lamborghini Volkswagen Technology Truck Convertible Crossover Hatchback SUV Performance sunday drive vw golf gti lamborghini terzo millennio
Volkswagen Cross Up! aimed at rugged lifestyle folks, complete with plastic cladding
Wed, 06 Mar 2013If you thought there was nothing wrong with the Volkswagen Up! that a little body cladding wouldn't fix, you're in luck. VW has officially pulled the wraps off the production version of the Cross Up!, and its wheel arches and rocker panels are full of the black plastic cladding you've been yearning for.
In addition to the "particularly rugged design and tough, lifestyle qualities" that the cladding exudes, VeeDub has also seen fit to put its Cross Up! on a new set of 16-inch alloy wheels clad in 185/50-series tires. Inside, there are new kick plates to go along with a dash pad that can be had in red, black or silver.
All that cladding must equal additional off-road readiness, right? Well, sure... just so long as you're fine with the same 75-horsepower three-cylinder engine that all other Up! models also feature, along with a five-speed manual transmission sending power to the front wheels, again, just like all other Up! models. The Cross Up! appears to have a taller ride height than other models, but we haven't been able to find out what - if any - changes have been made.
