Hello in eBay land..  Check out this fantastic find!  2001 Volkswagen EuroVan.  Most of you reading this love the EuroVans as much as I do.  I have owned MANY.. This one is my favorite color however, Techno Blue Metallic.  I have always loved this this color!  The more time I spend around EuroVans the more I like them.  This is the perfect vehicle for the person with the spirit of adventure.  Because they are front wheel drive, they are great in the snow and bad weather and they are just big enough to use and camp out of, without being so big that they sit around waiting for the fun.  The folks that I know that own EuroVans use them every single day for any one of their million uses.  Bikes, Surfboards, Skis, Snowboards, Trade Shows, Mobile Office, Camper..  The list goes on..   

Because I am a fan of these vehicles, I know what to look out for when buying them too and this one passed all of my tests.  First of all rust..  THIS IS A 100% RUST FREE VEHICLE..  Next the transmission.  Known as the Achilles’ heel of the Eurovan   It is important to check for slipping and leaks and hard shifts too..  This van has a perfect transmission.  Engine..  24 Valves and   NO “check engine” light coming on..  No hard starts or missing or dripping or smoking ever..  She runs and drives exactly as you hope.  Also, the power windows are fast and powerful too.

The Eurovan in my opinion is the only “minivan” with elegance and style too.  It may be 13 years old, but there is still nothing made today that is close to this.

It seats 7 passengers and is easy to get them in and out.  Just jump in and go.  They are also super easy to see out of as the windows are all around the van.  No blind spots and also a higher seating position that helps you see over other cars.  This van is not a weekender edition, but it is still fun and easy to camp out of.  The seats fold flat and there are two different ways to set up the sleeping area depending on the amount of space you require.  I pictured both ways.  The captain’s chairs also can be positioned facing forward or back giving many interior possibilities.    

This EuroVan is immaculate inside and out.  The Techno Blue paint is beautiful and the interior is nice and clean.  There is no perfume smells or smoke, food, or pet smells either.

This VW is 100% ready.  It needs nothing to be used and enjoyed today.  All the services are up to date and everything works perfectly.  The Air Conditioning blows ICE COLD FRONT AND REAR.  This one also has a power moonroof that works perfectly too.

This EuroVan was returned to Volkswagen North America in 2003 as part of their “Lemon Law Buyback” program.  Strict California laws allow for returns for lots of reasons.  When VW gets one back they learn from them and fix the problems properly.  After the buyback VW marketed the van through their Armstrong Volkswagen and they have serviced the van ever since.  Please look at the detailed Carfax provided.  This EuroVan has gone a long way since then..  I have not had one in better condition mechanically. 

The van also has tires with 90% tread and new brakes and rotors on all four corners.  This van will pass the most rigorous inspections so bring them.  She will impress the harshest critics.  

If I am forgetting to mention anything it is not a negative, because there are very few.  This is a super nice and extra clean EuroVan that will impress the next owner just as much as it has me.  Bid with confidence and please ask questions if you have them.  I also can give instant shipping quotes, so let me know where you are and I will tell you what it would cost to get it to you.  Or fly out and drive it home and make a vacation out of it!  I will hold the van as long as you need me to as long as it’s paid for.  I am selling the EuroVan with a LOW RESERVE, but I must say there are probably cheaper ones out there, I doubt there are many nicer.  Please read the following points…

#1.  Only bid if you have intentions to buy. 

#2. Ask any and all questions before bidding. 

#3. Please contact me BEFORE BIDDING if you have zero or negative feedback.

 #4. This is an AS-IS sale.  I have done my best to describe it exactly as I see it but it has no warranties or guarantees except a clean and clear legal title after payment.

 #5. I will not accept Pay-Pal for the balance payment of the Volkswagen.  Pay-Pal is for deposits only, the balance must be paid by certified check or wire.  Legitimate and legal buyers only please.

 Just be real and genuine and I will make sure that the winning bidder is happy with his or her purchase.  I have 100% positive feedback and I plan on keeping that.  Also, I will end the sale for the right offer so don’t wait till the last second and worry about missing out.  Just call me and we will work out a fair price..  Again, ask questions about anything UP FRONT please.  After you win is not the time to do your research..  I will help with anything, but before the auction end.  If you have conditions attached to your bids, please let me know them.  I am confident I can put your concerns at ease.  I am a licensed and bonded Oregon Auto Dealer and will follow sales procedures to the letter of the law.

Prop-driven VW Beetle hopes to land in Bonneville [w/video]

Thu, 10 Jan 2013

Sometimes you meet folks who, when they tell you "Hey, I have an idea," your reflex response is to stop what you're doing and tell yourself, "Get ready...." We imagine Mike Niemans is one of those folks, and the idea in question is putting a tank engine on a Type 1 Volkswagen Beetle. Not just any old tank engine - as if there were such a thing when we're talking about putting them in cars - but a 668-cubic-inch, 220-horsepower radial engine built by Continental in 1941 and procured from an M2 tank.
In the image above Nieman is using the tank clutch hub to get the motor set up, but in one of the images below you can see what really belongs back there is: a two-inch, reverse-pitch prop taken from a wind generator. He says there's enough mojo with the propeller action to get the car rolling down the runway like a jet when he gives it gas - and speaking of gas, the engine's been refitted to run on propane.
After a few safety tweaks Nieman's going to take the matte-black Beetle to Bonneville, "put the prop on, let her go and see what happens!" We can't wait to see the video of that. There are two shakedown videos below to get you ready.

Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating

Mon, Aug 6 2018

Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.

2014 Volkswagen XL1 [w/video]

Mon, 11 Mar 2013

World's Most Efficient Car Impresses, Not Without Compromises
Among our many duties at the recent Geneva Motor Show, we were offered a pretty exclusive drive in the new Volkswagen XL1 hyper-efficient plug-in diesel hybrid. There is so much that is interesting about a car like this reaching production from a major automaker that it's tough to know where to begin.
First off, you should know that - at least for this generation - there is absolutely no chance in Albuquerque that this "1-liter vehicle" (i.e. a vehicle that can burn just one liter of fuel to travel 100 kilometers, or 62.1 miles) will ever make it into the hands of North American customers. We, too, were having trouble imagining an XL1 in typical American traffic, surrounded by comparatively massive pickups and SUVs. The driving experience had us recalling a couple of weeks in 1999 when we drove the then-revolutionary Honda Insight hybrid on US roads. We keenly remember the feeling of being very small and vulnerable, even as we felt proudly green in our 61-mpg Tochigi pod. Thing is, the Volkswagen is smaller still, and nearly as light despite its more complex drivetrain and safety features.
