 1985 Volkswagen Vanagon Hardtop
1.6L NA Diesel w/ AC!

Just in time for Christmas! Starting at a "give-away" bidding price! NO RESERVE!

You are about to bid on a daily driver Vanagon that I have care for very well. The only reason you're seeing it on eBay is because I just moved to CA and I need a 4WD vehicle.  I have spent thousands to make this a dependable, functional, and comfortable camper van. The vehicle has 208,000 miles but converted to a rebuilt diesel engine that only has 78,000 miles (hence the reason for listing at 78k mi). The engine is a rebuilt 1.6 liter naturally aspirated diesel with a manual glow. The engine has seen regular oil changes, new filters, fluid changes, etc per specs. It has a rebuilt injection pump installed 10/2012. This van runs at 25-30 MPG, 65 MPH on the highway with the AC running. The tranny is super solid, never a problem, new fluid 11/2013.


This vehicle is mechanically sound with receipts of all work. New tires 05/2012 (see pics of tread). New alternator, new power steering pump, new timing belt, new coolant hoses, new AC hoses, new PS hoses, etc. etc. READY TO DRIVE HOMEHeavy duty custom hitch. All of the interior panels are re-fabricated with noise reducers. Air conditioning blows COLD. It is the original AC system that has been resealed and repainted black. All rubber floors for easier cleaning and custom curtains for camping.

This van is sold with yakima bars if you wish to keep them (see photos). It also comes with some extra parts. Also under the fold down seat are the ORIGINAL jack and tools to change the spare tire. 

This car is absolutely RUST FREE. Lived most its life in AZ. However, as with most Vanagons, there are some imperfections. The paint gloss on the roof is peeling (not the paint, just the gloss) due to sun damage. The front passenger seat has a small rubber cement stain. Also, as seen in the photos, there is a small dent in the rear drivers side corner that can be easily fixed. The RPMs do not read as it requires a special connector on the alternator that I never needed.

DO NOT BE SHY, ASK QUESTIONS.

Important information: I will be available to show this van in Visalia, CA . If you wish to come see and test drive the van, please contact me to set up a day and time.

Conditions of Sale:
The highest bidder will pay an initial $500 via paypal within the first 24 hours of winning without exceptions! If the highest bidder does not provide an initial payment within 24 hours the vehicle will be sold to the next highest bidder. After the initial deposit the buyer will pay in full upon pickup. The winner will pick up the vehicle ON or BEFORE 12/08/2013.

VW builds 250,000th Passat in Chattanooga in just two years

Sun, 26 May 2013

It hasn't been without incident or union organizing drive, but the Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, TN has built its 250,000 Passat in just a little over two years. The Night Blue Passat TDI with black leather has come just two years and five weeks after the first customer car came off the line on April 18, 2011.
In the last year the plant operated at the 150,000-unit capacity that it was intended for, but the downturn in Passat sales and subsequent worker layoffs mean it will be a challenge to repeat the feat. The plant does have the world's largest solar park, though, and you can't take that away from them.
You'll find the official hand-clapping in the press release below.

Volkswagen New Midsize Coupe Concept is an aspirational Jetta

Mon, 21 Apr 2014

Meet the Volkswagen baby CC. Okay, that's not really it's name (VW calls it the New Midsize Coupe Concept), but this sleek, four-door coupe draws more than a little inspiration from the CC while riding on VW's MQB platform.
It's a looker, we think, and is an eye-pleasing departure from the bland styling of the current Jetta. The sleeker front end is complemented by a wider body overall (it's wider than a Passat), while the more sporting roofline and the sharp rear fascia gives the New Midsize Coupe a decidedly sporting character. LED head- and taillights add a bit more personality to this already stylish design.
Thanks to its 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder, it should get along rather sportingly, as well. The run to 62 miles per hour takes just 6.5 seconds thanks to the 217 horsepower on offer. A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is also fitted, and contributes to an estimated 37 miles per gallon.
