This van/camper is the perfect getaway vehicle for the weekend. It has a removable seat to allow for more floor space if the queen bed is pulled out. All of the foam for the beds and seats is in perfect condition with the exception of a small tear in the driver seat caused by one of the springs. There is a small tear in the upholstery of the sliding door. There is a small dent near the driver side window. There are the normal amount of small dings for a vehicle of this age. There is a manufacturer defect in the clear coat on the exterior hood some of that is peeling off. The pop up part of the roof is dulled. The gas door has some rust and should be replaced at some point. Some of the hooks for the curtains are missing but can be purchased cheaply online. One cup holder is missing the bottom but is still usable. There are 7 cup holders total. The pop up table is in excellent shape. The small refrigerator located under one of the back facing seats is clean and odor free. It has its own battery which is in great shape and the refrigerator runs but does not get cold. May need some coolant replaced. The flooring is in excellent shape, the full size mat on the floor is in good shape with the exception of the drivers side. The arm of the driver's side seat is loose. We are the second owners. We purchased it off of Ebay from a man in Clinton WI. There has never been any smoking done in this vehicle. The antenna for the radio has broken off but stations are still coming in. There are multiple adapter outlets through out the van.

We used this van for weekend camping and to take our son to soccer tournaments. It worked out great for that purpose. He was able to lay down between games and nap or go in there and change his clothes. We also took if for a week long trip to camp in Wisconsin. We had 2 adults and 2 middle aged kids and a black lab. We did fine in it even though it rained most of the weekend. There is plenty of storage space in the back behind the seat and also under the seat. We were able to pack all we needed in the van for that week long trip including a kitchen tent, camp stove etc.

It is a very fun van. We hate to sell it but our kids are grown and we just can't justify keeping it any longer. The van has been kept up mechanically by an excellent mechanic that specializes in Volkswagen.

This vehicle is for pick up only. We will not be delivering it to the purchaser unless the purchaser makes the arrangements for it to be shipped. Payment will be cash or paypal.

The Kelly Blue Book price for this van in poor condition (which this van is not in poor condition) is $14,800.00 because it has the weekender package.

Lexus tops JD Power Vehicle Dependability Study again, Buick bests Toyota

Wed, Feb 25 2015

It shouldn't surprise anyone, but Lexus has once again taken the top spot in JD Power's Vehicle Dependability Study. That'd be the Japanese luxury brand's fourth straight year at the top of table. The big news, though, is the rise of Buick. General Motor's near-premium brand beat out Toyota to take second place, with 110 problems per 100 vehicles compared to Toyota's 111 problems. Lexus owners only reported 89 problems per 100 vehicles. Besides Buick's three-position jump, Scion enjoyed a major improvement, jumping 13 positions from 2014. Ram and Mitsubishi made big gains, as well, moving up 11 and 10 positions, respectively. In terms of individual segments, GM and Toyota both excelled, taking home seven segment awards each. The study wasn't good news for all involved, though. A number of popular automakers finished below the industry average of 147 problems per 100 vehicles, including Subaru, (157PP100), Volkswagen (165PP100), Ford/Hyundai (188PP100 each) and Mini (193PP100). The biggest losers (by a tremendous margin, we might add) were Land Rover and Fiat, recording 258 and 273 problems per 100 vehicles. The next closest brand was Jeep, with 197PP100. While the Vehicle Dependability Study uses the same measurement system as the Initial Quality Survey, the two metrics analyze very different things. The VDS looks at problems experienced by original owners of model year 2012 vehicles over the past 12 months, while the oft-quoted IQS focuses on problems in the first 90 days of new-vehicle ownership. Like the IQS, though, the VDS has a rather broad definition of what a problem is. Because of that, a low score from JD Power is no guarantee of extreme unreliability, so much as just poor design. In this most recent study, the two most reported problems focused on Bluetooth connectivity and the voice-command systems. The former leaves plenty of room for user error due to poor design (particularly true of the Bluetooth systems on the low-scoring Fords, Volkswagens and Subarus), while the second is something JD Power has already confirmed as being universally terrible. That makes means that while these studies are important, they shouldn't be taken as gospel when it comes to automotive reliability.

Everyone but VW and Tesla has recalled their Takata airbags

Thu, Aug 20 2015

Takata's massive airbag inflator recall affected over 32 million vehicles from 11 automakers in the US, but two companies buying the supplier's parts haven't been affected so far: Volkswagen and Tesla. There are 887,055 VWs and 184,926 Teslas using Takata's inflators with ammonium-nitrate propellant, a new accounting shows, according to Automotive News. That doesn't necessarily mean the models need to be recalled. These figures came from a report that Takata prepared for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, which listed all of the vehicles it supplied with ammonium nitrate-fueled inflators. The substance is believed to be linked with the components' rupturing, along with manufacturing defects and humidity. "We're not asking because we've got reports of problems; we just need to figure out what the universe is," NHTSA spokesman Gordon Trowbridge said to Automotive News. Takata reportedly told Tesla that the inflators in its EVs are not affected with these problems, and VW is investigating a case in June where a side airbag allegedly burst in a 2015 Tiguan, Automotive News reports. The government is also still researching the precise cause of the parts' ruptures. If the investigation finds ammonium nitrate to be a factor, the vehicles could need recalled. During a Congressional hearing Takata vice president Kevin Kennedy admitted that ammonium nitrate could be among the factors of the ruptures, but the company has continued to use the chemical in its inflators. Takata is now working to transition to a different propellant. Related Video:

Carlex Criollo is a Volkswagen Multivan shrine to Alcantara, leather and... fish

Wed, 10 Jul 2013

A keen angler recently went to Polish tuner Carlex Design (the same folks who did that steampunk Mini Countryman a while back) for a revamp of his Volkswagen Multivan. What resulted is perhaps the most striking - yet fishing-unfriendly - interior we've ever seen in a van. Below the shoulder line, if a surface isn't covered in cross-stitched Alcantara, then it's covered in cross-stitched leather. Even the steering wheel airbag boss. And the seat supports. And the cupholders.
The brown hue of the Multivan's interior is called Criollo, named for an especially fine specimen of cocoa. The finishing touch on the overhaul is a fileting knife that Carlex made for the owner. We imagine he'll use the knife for the marine life, but keep his van far away from it.
