1987 Volkswagen Vanagon Syncro Van 2.1l Locker 4wd Low Gear No Reserve on 2040-cars
Henrico, Virginia, United States
Up for auction is my 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon Syncro 4WD. The van is all
stock, with low miles. I am the second owner. Runs good, shifts good,
goes down the road really well for a 26 year old vehicle. The
transmission was recently rebuilt to fix an issue with 4th gear, which
these earlier vans seem to be prone to. Starts right up, doesn't use any
oil, or leak any fluids. Head gaskets are dry and leak free.
Things I know are in need of attention, if you chose to: Paint is shot (doesn't bother me) Temp gauge in not operating Air conditioner does not work Power mirrors do not work on either side Locker vacuum system is in need of a rebuild Will need front brake pads soon, according to the inspection station One passenger armrest will not stay up Replace fuel lines from fuel pump to tank Recent work completed: Transmission rebuild with taller (.82) 4th gear for better highway manors New slave cylinder New right front axle Inspected in September New fuel lines to the injectors New fuel injector seals New Air filter New oxygen sensor New alternator and power steering belts New shift linkage parts Cap, rotor, wires I have the middle seat and it will come with the van. We took it out to have more room when camping. This van is sold as-is. Please arrange to come look at it if you like, or I will answer any questions you may have. I still drive it, so the mileage may increase. No reserve. Please refrain from bidding if you do not plan on following through with the auction. |

Carlex Criollo is a Volkswagen Multivan shrine to Alcantara, leather and... fish
Wed, 10 Jul 2013A 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.
Porsche board members facing another ˆ1.8B lawsuit over VW takeover bid
Mon, 03 Feb 2014Back in 2008, Porsche got the bright idea that it could take over Volkswagen in the midst of the worst economic slump since the Great Depression. Ignoring that this was a catastrophic move for the Stuttgart sports car manufacturer that that eventually resulted in it nearly going bankrupt and eventually being taken over by the same company it sought to control, the aftermath has left Porsche Chairman Wolfgang Porsche and board member Ferdinand Piëch in the crosshairs of seven hedge funds that lost out during the takeover and are now seeking €1.8 billion - $2.43 billion US - in damages from the two execs, according to the BBC.
See, investors bet on Volkswagen's share price going down, partially because Porsche said it wasn't going to attempt a takeover. But Porsche was attempting to take over VW, having bought up nearly 75-percent of VW's publicly traded shares. When word broke that Porsche owned nearly three-quarters of VW (which indicated an imminent takeover attempt), rather than go down like the hedge funds bet it would, VW's share price skyrocketed to over 1,000 euros per share, according to Reuters.
Naturally, when you bet that a company's share price is going to drop and it in turn (temporarily) becomes the world's most valuable company, you lose a lot of money, unless you're able to buy up shares before prices jump too much. This led to a squeeze on the stock, which the hedge funds accuse Porsche and Piëch (who are both members of the Porsche family and supervisory board) of organizing.
