2001 VW Eurovan Westfalia.  This is the very last revision of the VW Westfalia ever made.  It has the fastest motor ever put in a VW camper van, the 24 valve VR6.  This is the second motor in this van that was put in by the dealer by the previous owner.  It runs great,  starts every time and recently completed a trip from Colorado to Virginia and back with absolutely no issues.  The trans has been recently serviced as well as a new heater core and inner and outer tie rod ends.   There is a 1 1/4' receiver hitch I put on to use my bike rack with.  It has never towed anything and has no trailer wiring but is nice for racking.  It also has artificial rain gutters mounted to run thule or Yakima roof racks.  The interior is clean and parts are functioning.  The rear bed works and is nice for winter camping,  the top pops nice and the loft bed is clean,  The only part of the interior missing are the armrest on passenger front seat,  easy replacement.  The windows are tinted dark in the back and I have the rear window and rear side window curtains.  The wheels are stock 16" alloy and have been painted black but could be removed if owner wanted them silver again.  The table and fridge both work.  There are several power ports throughout the van.  I have recently replaced the auxiliary battery and put the biggest one that would fit correctly.  The interior florescent lights work well and light it up nicely at night.  The second rear facing jump seat is included but not pictured.  it is in great shape because it has been out for extra space most of the time.  I have never owned a vehicle that was so versatile.  I love VW's. 

Goodyear Eagle Ultra Grip Tires, very little wear and very good on and off road.  This van has ESP traction control and does very well in the snow.  There are new front shocks and front wheel bearings on this Eurovan. 

This is a stock VW paint job,  it has not been repainted. This is the GTI of VW camper vans.

This van is for sale locally as well and I reserve the right to end the auction early.

VW LogBox and Race App performance data logger for R models [w/video]

Tue, Dec 30 2014

Now that it's got a 300-horsepower Golf R to brag about, Volkswagen wants you to be able to brag about it accurately with the LogBox and Race App performance data logging combo. Plug the LogBox into your VW's OBD II port and it sends data over BlueTooth to the Race App, measuring variables like acceleration, distance, G-force and engine performance. If you're on a circuit, it uses Google Maps to make a map of the track, and you can record live video in-app to match with the data. Volkswagen says the LogBox will be available for R models and "a range of further Volkswagen cars," so you'll want to hit up your dealer with questions before ordering. It's available from the VW accessories store for 299 euros ($365 US), but right now the free app is only available in German, in the German-language iTunes and Google Play store. We imagine that will be corrected shortly; in the meantime, the video can show you how it works.

Volkswagen Golf R 400 Concept is a 201-mph hot hatch

Sun, 20 Apr 2014

This, friends, is what happens when you shoehorn 395 horsepower into a Golf. You get a three-door hatch that will happily scurry to 62 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 201 mph. Oh yes, we like you, Golf R 400 Concept.
As we explained in our original post, the R 400 is the long-awaited successor to bonkers Golf creations like the GTI W12 from 2007 and, more recently, the Design Vision GTI. It's powered by the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder found in a number of Volkswagen (and Audi, SEAT and Skoda) products, although it's been heavily massaged to pump out 332 pound-feet of torque along side its amplified horsepower.
Naturally, it's been lowered and now rides on 19-inch wheels. Outside of those changes, though, mums the word on suspension and chassis enhancements. While this is a bummer, the striking looks of the Golf R 400 more than make up for it.

How VW's hyper-efficient XL1 will influence the next Golf

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

In 2007, the European Union mandated fleet average CO2 emissions of 158.7 g/km. For 2015, that figure will drop to 130 g/km, and the target for 2020 is an ambitions 95 g/km. Thanks to some German politicking, that target will be phased in from 2020 to 2024, but it will still apply to 80 percent of passenger cars in that first year. In US miles per gallon, that's the equivalent of going from about 35 mpg to 42 mpg to 57 mpg. The current Volkswagen Golf is rated from 85 g/km of CO2 to 190 g/km depending on model - and zero for the e-Golf, so for the next-generation MkVIII hatch due in 2019, to meet the goal, Volkswagen engineers will need to introduce a bunch of new tricks. According to a report in Autocar, VW be mining its hyper-efficient XL1 for some of them.
Predictions for the next Golf include a variable-compression engine, an electric flywheel and an electric turbo, along with taking greater advantage of coasting. Volkswagen could be getting help from Audi with the electric turbo and variable-compression engine and electric turbo, with Audi already having shown off the former and brand technical boss Ulrich Hackenberg confirming the VW Group is working on the latter. It's possible the flywheel system could also have the mark of The Four Rings: Autocar mentions a British system that Volvo is testing, but the R18 e-tron Quattro racer has been using one for years.
The need for such features is because the company won't be able to net enough future gains from just aerodynamic improvements and advanced materials. As price will be a factor (the regulations are expected to "add hundreds of euros to the cost of building a car"), adding much more aluminum or carbon fiber is an unlikely option. We're told the next generation won't be longer or wider than the current car, and being Europe's most popular model, VW doesn't want to make a big bet on futuristic aero, but the report says the MkVIII will "likely" have "the most aerodynamic treatment yet seen on a production vehicle," the area where lessons learned from the XL1 will truly be seen.
