 This 1982 Westfalia was bought by our folks in 1984 and we have owned it for the last fifteen years. It has been very well taken care of and has been a Colorado rust free vehicle its whole life. I have personally maintained this van and have kept it in tip top shape as the years have gone by. I may miss some details of things I have done over the years but several things are as follows, replaced all fuel lines and tank seals last summer, rebuilt engine roughly 5000 miles ago, new clutch 5000 miles ago, brakes last summer, tires last summer (weight appropriate I might add), all of the fuel injection parts were replaced 5000 miles ago except for the computer itself, I ever so often would remove the wax and touch up the paint chips and control/remove any tiny rust spots that come from gravel road outings, many van owners haven't taken steps to protect their metal and it shows our van speaks for itself rust free and good looking. Now as for the futures you are looking for in a camper the top pops up in seconds and comes down just as quick, the canvas is perfect, this rv sleeps four two up top two on bottom, it has a very convenient little closet, water tank and sink with running water, two burner stove with stainless steel pull down counter top that covers the burners and allows you two convert the stove top into a counter top, refrigerator that runs on gas battery and electric, this van has the very rare built in camping furnace which is located under the van and when operating blows air into the van just like a ready heater it works perfectly and I have taken care of its maintenance also, their are many neat little features to this camper that i would be happy to tell/teach you about but you may either already know these vehicles pretty well or just have to discover some of them when you own one.

The important part to know about our van is that it is in perfect working order and ready for years of enjoyment. It is not a fixer upper that will cost you a bunch of money. If you keep up on its maintenance like our family has always done it will last you just as many years and go and go.

The only things about this van that are bad is #1 the odometer stopped counting miles two years ago. We have only taken two 500 mile trips in it since this happened and I would estimate altogether we have driven under 1500 miles since it quit.
#2 I have always wanted to get a custom paint job done in a watery blue tie die color but the paint has held up so good that every time I detail it out its to good to spend the money. Take a close look in the pictures and you will see that if you keep this van waxed and washed it still looks great.

We are only letting this go because as a family we have outgrown it and it has not been used much in the last three to five years. We have enjoyed being Westfalia owners and would really like to see someone who would use this and enjoy it as we have get it.

I will add one last thing that is extremely important to know since this is a vehicle you will be living in on occasion, we are very clean people and this is a very clean van, we have always used free bedding and extra padding and when you use this vehicle as a home on wheels you will be glad to have one this clean. Oh and yes it has all of its curtains and even has the original ice cube trays that came with it brand new. Also has books jack and tools. I'll do my best to answer questions you may have but rest assured this is a good Westy with nothing to hide.

Recharge Wrap-up: Zero takes electric motorcycles to cop expos, Chevy Volt powers dealership's Internet

Fri, Oct 3 2014

Zero Motorcycles will be at three law enforcement conferences this month, including COPSWEST Training and Expo, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Law Enforcement Vehicle Test and Emergency Vehicle Product Expo and International Association of Chiefs of Police Expo. Zero will display its recently debuted 2015 line of electric motorcycles at the events including the new FXP, a police-duty version of it FX "Stealthfighter." Zero also offers the MMX, SP and DSP for police and military use. Learn more about the events in the press release below. Volkswagen Group CEO Martin Winterkorn told European regulators that more stringent emissions standards too soon will be a major problem for automakers. He says that such moves could prove "fatal" for an auto industry that is still working to develop cleaner vehicles. "Every gram of CO2 that we save in our European fleet costs our group almost 100 million euros," says Winterkorn, "100 million that we have to invest in advance, without knowing when these investments pay off." He says that already creating emissions targets beyond those set for 2020 could harm European automakers competing globally. Read more at Automotive News Europe.

After the regular connection at Buff Whelan Chevrolet went down, it plugged in a Volt showroom model equipped with 4G LTE, and used its connection to resume business.

Vahland leaving VW over dispute on how to run NA region

Wed, Oct 14 2015

On November 1, Winfried Vahland was supposed to take over Volkswagen Group's recently created North American region that combines Canada, the US, and Mexico. But the longtime exec has instead decided to leave the automaker after a dispute over how to manage the new combined region. Vahland is currently the boss at Skoda, and in a statement about his departure the Czech company said: "Differing views on the organization of the new Group region have led to this decision; this decision is expressly not related to current events on the issue of diesel engines." Vahland is leaving at his own request, the announcement says. Vahland was appointed to run to North American region during VW's massive corporate shakeup on September 25. The decision was part of the automaker's plan to put a greater emphasis on regions and brands, rather than on centralized authority. According to Automotive News Europe citing a report from Germany's Auto Bild, Vahland was passed over for the CEO job, with Matthias Muller taking that position. Amidst the changes, Michael Horn remained at the helm of Volkswagen Group of America, reporting to the new regional boss. Vahland joined the automaker in 1990 and started running VW's operations in China in 2005. He became boss at Skoda in 2010. "In the last 25 years, Prof. Vahland made a great contribution to the company. We respect his decision and thank him for his exceptional performance," Muller said in the departure announcement. Prof. Dr. Winfried Vahland leaves Volkswagen Group 14.10.2015 Prof. Dr. Winfried Vahland leaves Volkswagen Group Mlada Boleslav, 14 October 2015 – After 25 years of successful work in Volkswagen Group, most recently as Chairman of SKODA, Prof. Dr. Winfried Vahland is leaving the company at his own request. Prof. Vahland will therefore not be taking up the position of overall responsibility for the North American Region (NAR). Differing views on the organisation of the new Group region have led to this decision; this decision is expressly not related to current events on the issue of diesel engines. Prof. Vahland began his work in Volkswagen Group in 1990. After holding several key positions at home and abroad, he took over Group responsibility as President and CEO of Volkswagen in China in 2005 and contributed significantly to the successful new direction of Volkswagen in China. He was appointed Chairman of the Board of Management of SKODA in 2010.

VW and partner SAIC start building $2.5B Audi plant in China

Fri, Oct 19 2018

BEIJING — Volkswagen AG's China joint venture with SAIC Motor Corp has started building a $2.5 billion new energy vehicle (NEV) plant in Shanghai, which will make VW's luxury Audi brand cars, a possible first for the venture. The new plant is a key step for Audi to diversify production of its cars in the world's largest car market from its long-standing local partner, China FAW Group Corp. This shift has been delayed amid resistance from local dealers. SAIC Volkswagen said the new plant would have an annual capacity to make 300,000 cars and begin production from 2020. Audi sold 481,387 vehicles in China from January to September this year. The announcement comes the same week Tesla secured a Shanghai location for a Gigafactory battery plant to serve the Chinese market. Audi unveiled the plan to bolster ties with SAIC in late 2016. Earlier this year, the Germany luxury carmaker bought a 1 percent stake in the SAIC Volkswagen venture, paving the way for the joint venture to produce and sell Audi cars. Volkswagen currently gets a larger proportion of the proceeds from the 50-50 tie-up with SAIC than from its 40 percent stake in the venture with FAW. SAIC Volkswagen said in a statement on Friday the plant would cost 17 billion yuan ($2.5 billion) and would make VW and Skoda models as well as Audi cars. It will help VW tap China's fast-growing market for NEVs, a category comprising electric battery cars and plug-in electric hybrid vehicles.
