1986 VW Vanagon Westfalia Camper
You are looking at a 1986 VW Westfalia Camper. This is essentially the final version of the Westfalia Vanagons the way they were built until 1991. It has the stronger 2.1 liter
water cooled engine, the newer ducts and the cooling system like all the later models ('86 and up) have.
It is in nice condition and we have had it serviced at a local VW shop. Amongst other things, the following was done: Engine compression test check (Checked out very well),
Replaced overflow and extra coolant tank, Flushed old sulphate free coolant and replaced it with new sulphate free coolant (important if you do not want your engine walls to corrode), Replaced ingnition and had the central locking system repaired.
It is a very clean camper since it is a California car. It has original paint and it has virtually no rust with two exceptions, which are as classic for these Vans as the vans themselves: One quarter size rust spot under the front windshield and one also about quarter size rust spot on the bottom right hand side of the rear window. The rear window rust has a little hole. There are a couple of dents in the driver side door but nothing major. Everything works as it should and the AC blows ice cold since the previous owner had replaced all the ducts and the AC unit. The refrigerator works fine on both settings: electric and gas. The kitchen is very clean and everything works great including sink and stove. All the trim for the pop up top has been replaced which means no cracked rubber seals and no leaks. The pop up camper works like new and the Van still has the original "single window" fabric with no holes or tears. In case you are wondering: The Westfalia sleeps four people: Two on the lower level bed and two on the upper (pop up). The exhaust system is a stainless steel version and is also in great shape. The Vanagon just recently passed CA smog without issues. The engine is strong and the tires have a lot of tread left. This Vanagon comes with all original locks and also still has the original locked gas cap with one VW key opening every lock. The tires were upgraded to the 16" "Go Westy" wheels and the wheels have been custom chromed. All windows with exception to the front windshield have been tinted professionally. No bubbles or nasty wrinkles. If you didn't know they are tinted, you wouldn't notice. The car comes with the original curtains and additional curtains to cover the front windshield and the driver and passenger windows for privacy. We took the car for a 1000 mile road trip recently and everything is fine. The engine in this Vanagon is the second one and it has roughly 100k miles on it. It is an original non rebuilt engine which was taken from a donor Van. This should be good for at least another 150k miles before it needs a rebuild. The transmission shifts nicely but (for full disclosure) it does have a slight hesitation shifting into third. I think this is all that I could say about the car. This wil be a reliable and solid camper for years to come and when it eventually will need some attention, it will be worth it, since these are quite collectible vehicles at this point. One last thing: The '86 year model is the last year where they still used the more beautiful chrome bumpers instead of the plastic ones. These look beautiful and are in very nice shape. Please understand that this is a 27 year old car and while I have described everything I know about this car, I am not offering any kind of warranty or guarantees. The Van is sold as is.

Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.

It hasn't been without incident or union organizing drive, but the Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, TN has built its 250,000 Passat in just a little over two years. The Night Blue Passat TDI with black leather has come just two years and five weeks after the first customer car came off the line on April 18, 2011.
In the last year the plant operated at the 150,000-unit capacity that it was intended for, but the downturn in Passat sales and subsequent worker layoffs mean it will be a challenge to repeat the feat. The plant does have the world's largest solar park, though, and you can't take that away from them.
You'll find the official hand-clapping in the press release below.

The upcoming Geneva Motor Show is going to be stocked with important new production models and sexy concept cars, but hot hatch enthusiasts will undoubtedly see it as the coming out party of the MkVII Volkswagen GTI. And while we've only got European specifications and pricing to go on for now, we can tell from the get-go that the new GTI will be a proper heir to VW's hot hatch legacy.
This seventh-generation GTI is powered by a turbocharged, direct-injection 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, which makes 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque in base form. For the first time ever, Volkswagen is also offering a performance pack for the GTI as well, which ups the horsepower to 230 (torque remains unchanged). With a slightly lower curb weight to push around - the new base car weighs 2,978 pounds versus 3,034 for the current three-door GTI - 0-62 miles per hour is now achieved in 6.5 seconds, and top speed is 153 mph. (Cars with the performance pack offer 0-62 mph in 6.4 seconds, and a 155-mph top speed.) Buyers my choose between a six-speed manual transmission or an optional six-speed DSG unit.
Visually, the new GTI has obviously adopted the slant-nosed looks of the MkVII Golf, though with plenty of added drama. The exterior is dominated by the 17-inch "Brooklyn" wheels wearing 225-section rubber, and the aggressive front fascia gets black honeycombed inserts in the upper and lower grille sections. At launch, Volkswagen will offer the GTI in three colors: the Pure White seen here, Tornado Red and Black. Tartan patterned seats are of course still an option for the interior, while the GTI-specific steering wheel and shift knob are standard.
