1978 Westfalia on 2040-cars
Harwich, Massachusetts, United States

I've owned this Westy for 7 years now,I've replaced the clutch with a heavy duty model, all cables, hoses, the engine has less than 2,500 miles since a professional overhaul with new pistons and cylinders, fuel pump and so much more, even the fuel tank has been removed, cleaned and coated to prevent corrosion,there are two batteries 1 deep cycle and 1 cranking, the canvas is clean with no tears, the brakes have been gone through, tires have less than 10k and are proper for the bus. the interior is in good original condition with 2 burner stove, sink, electric refrigerator, and battery charger with the exception of the front seats that the P.O. had redone with new padding, the 1st class paint is new and perfect, all window and door seals are recent and of the best quality available. The bus drives beautifully and the front end is tight, no wobbles, windows are excellent, everything I've done over the years has been to the best standards, the goal being to have a vehicle that will go and go reliably. There is a receiver for a trailer hitch or bike rack with trailer light wiring, included are screens for the sliding door and the back hatch, curtains all around including windshield and cockpit windows, child's cot front snack table and rear table. 1 key for ignition and all locks. I've finally got the Bus in the condition to travel the country but now MY situation won't allow me to. I would love to see it go to someone that will enjoy it. glad to answer any questions and/or send more pics. Good Luck.

Volkswagen drops "GTi" lawsuit against Suzuki
Tue, 02 Oct 2012Way back in 2004, Volkswagen took umbrage with Suzuki being granted permission to use the nameplate "SWIFT GTi" for a performance variant of its small-car offering (2012 equivalent seen here). Now, eight years and surely some very steep legal bills later, VW has finally dropped its claim against Suzuki.
The General Court of the European Union stated, back in March of this year, that Suzuki's GTi registration could not be confused with VW's "Golf GTI." Volkswagen had appealed that ruling, though has now reportedly called off the dogs. In fact, Germany's Die Welt reports that the appeal has been dead for several weeks now.
This news comes amongst continued arbitration acrimony between the two automakers, all revolving around VW's forced divestiture of nearly 20-percent stake it purchased in Suzuki some two years ago.
VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga
Fri, 10 Jan 2014Potential labor woes aside, it looks like Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN factory must have done something that impressed the bosses in Germany, because it sounds like the three-year-old factory is set to score a second model.
The factory currently builds the Passat, and has been in the running alongside VW's Puebla, Mexico factory to build a new crossover vehicle, likely based on the CrossBlue Concept. According to Bloomberg, a pair of unnamed sources have confirmed that Chattanooga is the favorite ahead of an official announcement.
When last we heard about the CrossBlue Concept, word was that a production decision had been delayed over concerns about the three-row CUV's business case. That August 2013 story claimed that a decision regarding the CrossBlue would be pushed back until early in 2014, which means we're ripe for some sort of news, whether good or bad.
VW announces recall of 26,000 2014 models with 1.8T engines
Tue, 22 Apr 2014Volkswagen has followed up on a stop-sale order from earlier this month, announcing a voluntarily recall of 26,400 vehicles that are powered by the brand's 1.8-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The new mill replaced the despised 2.5-liter five-cylinder in the Jetta, Passat, Beetle and Beetle Convertible last year. Weirdly, though, of the 26,452 units covered in the recall, only 1,655 are customer vehicles.
According to VW, the affected models were built between February 1 and April 6 of this year, and feature bad O-ring seals in the transmission oil cooler. Apparently, the faulty O-rings could cause a fluid leak, as they won't seal between the oil cooler and transmission. VW is blaming a material change from a supplier for the problem.
There have been no fires, injuries, accidents or fatalities relating to this issue, which VW will be fixing free of charge. Customers will need to report to dealers to have the O-rings replaced.
