1982 Volkswagen Vanagon L Campmobile Van Camper 3-door 2.0l on 2040-cars
Ortonville, Michigan, United States
Up of auction is a beautifully restored 1982 Volkswagon Vanagon L Westfalia with 90,396 original miles. When I first acquired the van it was in great unrestored condition with a rust free body. Since then, the van underwent some changes. With an accociate who is a second-generation Volkswagen mechanic and myself a certified mechanic and automotive painter with 13 years automotive restoration experience; together we worked bumper-to-bumper restoring the van to its 1982 factory condition. All of the windows, interior, and pop top were removed. The van then was primed with a urethane based primer, sealer, surfacer, blocked sanded, and painted with a basecoat clearcoat urethane paint. After the paint had cured, the clear-coat was buffed and polished to a mirror finish. We reassembled the van replacing any necessary items, some of these included new seals, pop top canvas, tires, and new chrome. The end product is a beautiful original example of an 82 Westy. Everything on this Westy works as it did in 1982; the interior is original and is in exceptional condition. The stove still has the blue plastic protective coating from the factory that was placed there in 1982. We have seen a lot of westfalia's on the market self-proclaiming to be "mint condition." In our opinion these vans are clean but are a far-cry away from this 82 Westy. With the combination of past owners that loved the van, low miles, a rust free body, and a recent restoration we do believe this one is among the top bracket of 82 Westfalia's available. A $500 deposit will be required within 48 hours of the auction ending via PayPal, will not ship, local pick up only please. We reserve the right to remove this listing. Happy bidding! |

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.
Auto execs surveyed say VW, BMW most likely to grow
Thu, 17 Jan 2013A new survey of top global automotive executives indicates both Volkswagen and BMW are the most likely to grow their market share over the next five years.
Tax advisory firm KPMG LLP has released its 14th annual Global Automotive Executive Survey, which includes responses from over 200 executives. A total of 81 percent of respondents said they expect to see Volkswagen make gains, compared to 70 percent last year. BMW, meanwhile, saw 70 percent of those surveyed say they believe the company will increase its market share. That's a jump of 7 percentage points over last year. This is the first time in the history of the survey that BMW has claimed the second-place spot.
Meanwhile, Hyundai has seen its perceived market share potential slacken for the third year in a row. Around 61 percent of those surveyed predicted gains for Hyundai, down from 63 in 2012. Toyota also has a surprising year, but for just the opposite reason. While the manufacturer had slipped in ranking since 2011, it enjoyed the largest increase of any company in the 2013 survey, jumping to 68 percent from 44 percent last year.
