Get ready to adventure with this Mercedes! It is the ultimate adventure rig.
The Mercedes 4 liter Mechanically fuel injected diesel is the absolute perfect rig to run Bio-diesel! This engine is part of the group that make Mercedes well known for their robust engines that thrive on Bio. Of course you don't need to run Bio to appreciate their robust design. This is a million mile engine with about 100k miles on it! Very simply put your vision of the perfect camper interior into place and a simple inexpensive paint job and you will have one of the most desirable and unique vehicles on or off the street! This Mercedes is a grown ups dream of what Vw Buses should be. I have had a 1965 Vw Bus for over 20 years and have logged over a half a million miles. With the reliability of a Vw over the years and the space limitations I have found the perfect Bus, this one! I am only selling because I am moving to San Francisco and currently have two of these Mercedes. It is ready for some new tires and to build your custom interior. With weight not being a concern you can go all out with a mini washer, real stove, plenty of water storage, etc. Because it is not too big it really drives more like a Vw Bus than any other vehicle. It drives straight and smooth at speed. Everything drivetrain works excellent. It always starts immediately, shifts perfectly, stops normally. Holds a cruise of 60 all day long and is a really open and comfortable drive with it's big windshield. Granny gear will get you out of anything and the dually rear end will always find traction. There are some great all terrain tires at tires of America that would be perfect. Mechanically and electrically all stock vehicle functions all work but the horn. The Rv functions have been disconnected as I was getting ready to rip out the interior and do some custom wood work. The whole clutch assembly is brand new. Radiator fluid, oil, looks good, ect. New owner should plan on getting new brake hoses and drive it! I have done limited driving, about 75 miles, because this has been my project. They have been flawless and it has always performed flawlessly. Please feel free to ask any questions and good luck bidding!! Christopher |

Volkswagen Group names Paefgen head of classics program
Tue, 04 Oct 2011You may remember the name Franz-Josef Paefgen. Until recently, the German engineer and executive was head of both Bentley and Bugatti. Before that he was chief executive of Audi, after working for several years at Ford. He technically "retired" earlier this year, but like the cars he helped create, an executive like Paefgen could never really retire. So it should come as little surprise that the Volkswagen Group has named Dr. Paefgen head of its Classic program.
In his new capacity, Paefgen will oversee the historic automobile activities of the entire VW Group, including those of Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Audi, Lamborghini, and of course Bentley and Bugatti. It strikes us as a suitable semi-retirement for the man responsible in no small part for the Bugatti Veyron and Bentley Mulsanne, to name just two, and who was decorated in 2006 by the ACO as the "Spirit of Le Mans" for his contribution to endurance racing. Read the official announcement after the break.
VW reveals Outback-rivaling Golf Alltrack ahead of Paris
Wed, 24 Sep 2014The Volkswagen Passat Alltrack is getting a baby brother at this year's 2014 Paris Motor Show in the form of a new Golf Alltrack. Like its larger sibling, the little wagon is supposed to offer light-duty off-road driving ability combined with a more rugged look to show it off.
To give the Golf Alltrack that soft-road ability, VW is outfitting the wagon with its latest 4Motion all-wheel drive system from Haldex. The setup can decouple power from the rear-axle when not needed to save fuel. To further improve traction, the Alltrack gets VW's electronic differential lock, and the car can individually brake its inside wheel during hard cornering for better handling.
Volkswagen also wants the Alltrack to be able to visually show that it can handle getting away from the pavement, even though it starts life as a standard Golf wagon. That means jacking up the suspension an extra 0.75 inches and adding black moldings all the way around the car. There are also redesigned bumpers for the front and rear and silver underbody protection, plus new accents like anodized roof rails and silver mirror caps. The interior is essentially unchanged from the wagon, except for altered trim and Alltrack badges.
VW Jetta GLI, Peugeot 505 are MotorWeek's 1986 Euro sport sedan alternatives
Tue, Dec 23 2014Video reviews have become a mainstay of automotive journalism, but long before every publication turned on its video cameras and started uploading to YouTube, there was one program that was blazing the trail. That, of course, was MotorWeek, the television car program produced by Maryland Public Television and hosted by the inimitable John Davis. The program first aired back in 1981, and after more than three decades in the business, it's got a considerable archive of old episodes to unearth. In this latest gem recovered from the MotorWeek back catalog, the program pitted two European sports sedans against each other: a Volkswagen Jetta GLI and a Peugeot 505 Turbo. That's right: back in the 1980s, Peugeot was still competing in the US marketplace. The forced-induction 505 may not have been enough to keep the French automaker in American showrooms, but it was enough to stand up against the VW. Which one won MotorWeek's favor? You'll just have to watch the six-minute clip to find out. News Source: MotorWeek via YouTube Volkswagen Peugeot Economy Cars Performance Videos Sedan vw jetta gli
