No Reserve!!!! 1989 Vw Westfalia Campmobile! on 2040-cars
New Orleans, Louisiana, United States
1989 VW Vanagon Westfalia Camper Van! A perfect vehicle to take for a road trip, camp anywhere you pull over, and yet still be able to park in any major city. Air Condition!, Power Steering, Automatic Windows, CD, 2 beds (Can sleep 4), Refrigerator, 2 burner stove, Sink, Outside Awning, Rear Hatch Bug Screen, Front Full Dash Privacy Cover, Electric & Water hookups, Hidey Hole Shift Knob. It has a "Refurbished" title as I was in an accident (you can see the damage on the driver's side of the vehicle) and the insurance company marked it as a salvaged vehicle. A full inspection by State Police Inspector was completed on 5/29 and the title was changed to Rebuilt / Reconstructed and is fully licensed for road use. The functionality of the vehicle has been in no way affected and it always gets me where I want to go with no issue. It has been my super fun daily driver but I'm heading out of the country so it's time to let someone else have the fun. I'm the 3rd owner, was told that the engine was rebuilt by previous owner but there is no documentation on this. Clutch, Radiator Pump, Starter, Sink Faucet recently replaced. Tires replaced in November 2011 and still have good tread. Air condition was just charged and blowing cold. Undercarriage is looking good. New Water pump for the sink comes with the van, I never found time to install it. The odometer stopped working about 2 years ago so I can only guess at the mileage being in the early 200,000 area, there is a tear in the driver's seat upholstery, a couple rust spots around the window seals and at the driver's side damage area, a tear in the canvas at the rear, front fan blower needs replaced, and you'll need to purchase a new handle for the inside of the sliding door. Take a look at the video below to get a good idea. It is 25 years old and there is some maintenance and upkeep that will need to be invested in, but all in all this a a great vehicle that runs wonderfully and has many more years of fun to offer a new owner. The vehicle is being offered AS-IS with NO RESERVE!! I purchased the vehicle through Ebay in 2008 and got a great deal and I feel it should be offered up the same way. Please be committed to purchasing when placing your bid. Terms: $500 deposit due by paypal within 24hours after the auction has ended and full payment by bank transfer or cashiers check within 72hours after the auction has ended. The vehicle must be picked up in New Orleans, LA by July 27 at the very latest If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Good Luck &Happy Bidding!!! |

Volkswagen unveils sportier Passat Performance Concept ahead of Detroit debut
Fri, 11 Jan 2013Ahead of its official unveiling at next week's Detroit Auto Show, Volkswagen has released some preliminary details and images of its Passat Performance Concept - a car that, as its name suggests, adds a little more spice to the automaker's midsize sedan formula. VW makes no mention of any production intent for this road-ready-looking sedan, simply stating that the Performance Concept is a way to "explore this practical four-door's sportier side."
It certainly doesn't look too sporty, the only visual upgrades being larger 19-inch wheels, dual exhaust, bi-xenon headlamps with VW's Advanced Front Lighting system, LED taillmaps and carbon-look mirror caps. Inside, there are carbon interior accents and two-tone leather upholstery. But no matter, the real upgrades for this mightier Passat are found below the sheetmetal.
Powering the Performance Concept is a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, churning out 250 horsepower and sending its grunt to the ground via a six-speed automatic transmission. For reference, that's 80 more horsepower than the Passat's base 2.5-liter inline-five, but 20 horsepower less than the potent 3.6-liter VR6. As for other performance upgrades, Volkswagen has fitted the car with a lowered sport suspension and revamped electronic steering, which should indeed add a bit more dynamic feedback to the already nice-driving sedan.
Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
VW Jetta TDI Value Edition drops price of diesel ownership to $21,295*
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Getting a new diesel-powered car just got a bit easier. Volkswagen has announced a new Jetta TDI Value Edition for 2014 that trims over $2,000 off the starting price of a Jetta TDI, making the most affordable diesel-powered car in America even more so. Prices start at $21,295 (*plus $820 for destination) for a Value Edition with a six-speed manual transmission, while a six-speed dual-clutch automatic adds $1,100 to the price. For that money, owners will get 140 horsepower, 236 pound-feet of torque and 42 miles per gallon on the freeway.
Despite the lower price and being down on content versus the previous base Jetta TDI, the Value Edition does come quite well equipped, with standard heated cloth seats, a six-speaker stereo with a Media Device Interface, satellite radio, and one-touch, up-down power windows on all four doors. Customers will be giving up some notable stuff though, including tilt/telescopic steering, Bluetooth streaming audio, power seats and a multi-function steering wheel.
Still, if you're aching to get your hands on a new TDI, this is now the most affordable way to do it. We suspect having the lower MSRP will help the German manufacturer make even further diesel-powered inroads here in the States, a land where they cleared their decks of over 100,000 TDI models in 2013.
