1989 Volkswagen Vanagon Gl Syncro 4wd New Engine, New Trans And More on 2040-cars
Saint Johns, Florida, United States
|
Fantastic running and driving Syncro Vanagon with almost all mechanicals replaced and upgraded. Solid, tight steering and suspension, the trans shifts silky smooth in all gears and clutch is perfect. Very complete, was brought from California in 2005 and lived in Florida ever since. Phone book thick stack of receipts and documents from original owner, and $9000 in receipts for all of the following work done in the last 17K miles: Rebuilt Motor from GEX, Rebuilt Transaxle from AA Transaxle, OEM Clutch kit, Exhaust system, Front Axles, Coolant pipes and hoses, Water pump, motor mounts, belts, throttle cable, sensors, power steering pump, upgraded alloy wheels with matching spare sporting a new tire. etc. Don't let the miles fool you- you're better off buying a higher mileage Vanagon someone has already spent all the money replacing everything on so you just jump in and drive! The interior is very nice, maybe 7/10 due to some wear on the door panels, but has original rear sofa bed, rear mattress, all original curtains, headliner is mint, windshield is excellent, and has front and rear heat and AC. It has non pattern matching but OE grey jump seats from a weekender (very nice addition!) The AC system is 100% complete but would leak down so hasn't been used in a few years. There are a few minor items that need the usual attention also like pass window switch. The van does have the typical rust spots under just the right rear window and the windshield (marked with tape so you can see how many and where in the pictures) and a little bit in the dog leg seams but far less than my last two Vanagons. This is really a nice van and with a little love could easily be worth more than twice what I'm asking. Other than some asthetics and maybe new tires soon, all the big stuff has been taken care of and you're ready to jump in and go. I think I have it priced fairly but feel free to make an offer through eBay and I'll respond quickly. Thanks for looking! |

Volkswagen to add 50k jobs by 2018
Thu, 04 Apr 2013Volkswagen still has its eyes set on becoming the top global automaker by 2018, and to get there, it's apparently going to need more boots on the ground. Automotive News Europe is reporting that VW is looking to increase its staff by 50,000 over the next five years - an increase of nine percent - which does not include an increase in its US dealer network.
According to the report, a majority of the growth will come from China where the automaker is also looking to double its production capacity in the same time frame. The Volkswagen Group is already expected to rival General Motors for the top sales spot in China this year, and such a rapid expansion in the region could make a good springboard for sales increases in other countries.
Audi spending an additional $2.5 billion on expansion through 2019
Thu, Jan 1 2015Every year, it seems the Volkswagen Group announces a new and larger spend to push growth and profit, with Audi a regular recipient of the moolah. That's reasonable, seeing as hauls in 40 percent of Group operating profits. In December last year Audi said it would spend an additional 100 million euros ($122M US) per year through 2018 to develop new models and expand production, targeting 60 models by 2020 and luxury sales leadership. This month Audi said it will boost that by another two billion euros ($2.5B US) over the next five years, for a total outlay of 24 billion euros from 2014 to 2019. Something like 70 percent of those billions will be spent on new models, technology like "connectivity and lightweight construction," and factory expansion at its plants in Ingolstadt and Neckarsulm. Most of the ten models that will plump the lineup to 60 cars will mainly be aimed at the C and D segments, as well as crossovers, the brand's burgeoning portfolio of PHEV models, and all-electric cars that will begin staking ground in the segment. The big spend comes at the same time as Audi is working hard to reduce costs by $2.5 billion to maintain profitability, part of a larger push by VW to cut costs by $6.1 billion by 2017. More than a billion euros will go to new factories in Mexico and Brazil. Work begins on the Mexico plant next year, and when it comes on-line in 2016, Audi's Q5 successor will roll out of its warehouse doors; Audi has already announced it will hire 850 more workers next year in Mexico. When that's done, Mexico's production of German luxury cars will only trail that of Germany, China and the US. The company's Brazil plant will produce the A3 and S3 starting next year, and the brand figures luxury car buying there will triple by 2017.
