This is a one of a kind camper van.  It started as a great one owner Winnebago camper van and was professionally converted to Tdi power by grease works in Corvallis, Oregon. It’s got a built up AHU/ALH/1Z hybrid engine with about 150HP . It’s built to deliver power without sacrificing the diesels longevity. The body had 258k miles at time of the conversion. Now has about 20kmiles on performance built engine, rebuilt and properly diesel geared 5speed tranny and all other moving parts (CV axles, steering gear, wheel bearings etc.). Late Passat aluminum 16"rims. Lifted 2.5”, bill stein shocks, nice Nokian van rated tires, mufflerectomy. It has new yakima racks and a pretty large cargo basket. Mounted to that is a 75watt siemens solar panel with smart charge controller and 1600watts AC converter for computer or other gear.  The system charges whenever there’s light and keeps both (aux and main) batteries topped off. Custom stereo system with 6" sub built into the console in between driver and passenger seat, 6 new pioneer speakers, dual amps, separate audio controller for quick fade, subwoofer or tone level adjustments. Custom made european real sheepskin covers on front seats. European bull bar with high intensity LED floods. A/C, CD, MP3 and iPod hookups. Scan gauge and EGT gauge installed near radio for full info. 30-35miles/gallon. Biodiesel ready. Here in CA you won’t need a smog for this as it’s pre ’98.  Since it doesn’t have a cat or muffler it sounds great with the turbo whistling. If you step on it it will smoke some, it’s a diesel :-)

The camper aspect of the van is pretty much as any other winnebago conversion. It has the fresh and grey water tank hooked up to the sink and little rinse shower out back. 2 Burner stove top, 3-way fridge and heater work off of the mounted propane tank. The heater runs on 12 Volt and is great to heat up the van on cold camping mornings. It comes with 2 foldable tables that stow away nicely behind drivers seat. There are 2 bench seats in back which can be taken out if needed. The pop top creates a Queen size bed spread with zipping screened windows, lower bench seat folds down to a full size bed. 

I’m the second owner. It came with an additional seatbelt attached to the back of the passenger seat, which the previous owner installed to secure a wheel chair for a family member. 

The overall condition of the van is great. Everything is fully functioning. Cosmetically it has a few slight blemishes on the outside body as you can see in the video and pics.

With a possible fee I’ll accommodate pick up at the SMF airport or any other travel/ pick up arrangements if you arrange it with me before. 

I’m offering it locally too so I might take down the ad here if it sells local.


Thanks for looking and happy bidding.

Lamborghini and Bentley may hold off on SUVs so VW can conserve cash

Thu, 11 Oct 2012

After surveying the European economic scene, Volkswagen may have decided now is not the time to launch utility vehicles with Bentley and Lamborghini badges. Bentley officials say they will continue to push for support for the EXP 9 F and Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelman has said planning for the Urus will continue until VW tells it to stop.
That decision could come on November 23, when VW's board will vote on the company's budget for equipment, factories and vehicles. With VW's sales slowing and the Euro economy slumping further, some industry watchers say the company is more likely to build its cash reserves than to introduce super-expensive luxury SUVs or crossovers.
"Such vehicles are anything but obligatory during a crisis," says Frankfurt-based Equinet AG analyst Tim Schuldt in a new Automotive News Europe story. "Delaying their launch would be no drama but help save costs."

Volkswagen Group, BMW Z4 top Total Value Awards by Strategic Vision

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

It was just nine months ago that Strategic Vision announced its 2011 Total Value Awards, but you don't have to wait until next year for the 2012 awards. The Volkswagen Group keeps its lead as the number one brand, with seven products taking top category spots: Golf, Jetta Wagon, CC, Eos and Audi A3 Wagon, Q5 and Q7. Strategic Vision says "true innovation" - "rich and impactful, intuitive, motivational, in-depth and is able to trigger description by the user in great specificity" - is the open secret of the brands with the strongest showings. Results are culled from 77,153 owners covering more than 350 new cars bought between September of 2011 and 2012 ranked in the Total Value Index (TVI).
Other notable winners are Hyundai-Kia following VW in the brand category and having the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Sorento among category winners, the BMW Z4 taking the premium roadster category and the highest overall score of any vehicle, the Chevrolet Volt continuing to gather silverware in the Special Category, nabbing the second-highest score of all and representative of "nearly perfect innovation," and Chrysler and Dodge being most improved.

US-spec 2015 Volkswagen Golf and GTI to finally debut in New York

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf is hardly new to us. In fact, we've already driven it. And elsewhere in the world, the new Golf is already winning awards. Even so, we still have yet to see the US-spec version of the car, though that won't be the case much longer. As part of the New York Auto Show festivities later this month, Volkswagen will finally show off the 2015 Golf models destined for our shores.
Three different versions of the Golf will debut under the lights of New York City's Javits Center: the turbocharged TSI, oil-sipping TDI and hotter GTI. The first model in that list uses Volkswagen's new 1.8-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine, replacing the outgoing 2.5-liter naturally aspirated inline five-cylinder. The latter two models use familiar engines: the 2.0-liter TDI diesel and 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, respectively.
Even though the new Golf officially debuts later this month, it won't go on sale in the US until the first quarter of 2014. We'll be waiting patiently.
