2002 - Volkswagen Eurovan on 2040-cars
Dahlgren, Illinois, United States
2002 Volkswagen Eurovan Weekender Pop-Top 115,000 miles/185,000 kms 2.8 VR6 Engine It is with extreme reluctance that I offer a much beloved 2002 Westfalia for sale. I am a fanatic of older German cars and have had a life-long passion for VW campers. The van has never seen winter, has only been highway driven and maintained meticulously with up to date service (synthetic oil only). It is in excellent rust-free mechanical and physical shape. The original paint is virtually flawless and the interior even smells new. The interior shows no signs of fading whatsoever; this vehicle has spent the majority of its life indoors. The undercarriage has been regularly rust-proofed at Krown and is spotless and easy to service as a result. All seats look and support as if they were absolutely brand new. Service over the years has been performed by Bytek Volkswagen in Ottawa then Don Valley Volkswagen and Chris Symes at S&S Motors in Toronto (Euro specialists). All original books come with the vehicle and most of the service history is in the file with complete details available for the past three years. The van needs no conversion work for U.S. registration; even the speedometer is already in kilometers and miles. To the best of my knowledge it also shouldn’t require any work for safety certification in any jurisdiction; the tires have about 80% tread remaining, the rotors and brakes have very few miles on them. Features: - Comfortably seats 7 (or 6 without the additional jump seat in place behind the front passenger) - Sleeps 4 - Built-in 12v cooler mounted under jump-seat located behind driver’s seat - Power windows - Heated front seats - Cruise control - All original privacy curtains included along with full rear hatch screen, child safety barrier for upper deck and rare side door zip-up screen. - Auxilary battery (under driver’s seat) to power interior lights amenities without draining main battery. Additional features: - VW factory tow package including flat multi-pin trailer lighting cable that appears to be virtually unused - VW mudflaps - VW dealer installed rear parking sensors - UV block tinted windows - A full set of after-market German louvered window inserts for secure, rain-free ventilation from the front and side windows when parked or camping (pictured unmounted in trunk) - Built in 12-CD changer - Dash-mounted VW fold down shelf/cup holder - One year old front VW Eurovan-specific soft rubber mats - All weather carpet mat for rear passenger floor (not pictured) - Clear 3M scuff guards installed and like new on both front door thresholds A few items to point out: - This is not a brand new vehicle; are a few light marks in places thanks to less conscientious folk in parking lots and very minor chips on the front from highway travel. - As pictured, the upper tent has some easily repairable issues where the front panel has been, unfortunately, pinched by the pop-top closing mechanism. - At some point the previous owner (I am the second) had a valance mounted over the side door. When the valance was removed, the screw holes were sealed with silicone. These are barely noticeable and would be covered if a new valance were to be installed. The Eurovan MV Weekender is one of the most versatile vehicles ever produced. In addition to the purely recreational capabilities of the van, I often used to sit (and buckle up) in the back and do hours of work with my laptop on the table while my wife drove on long trips (see photo), using my phone as a wifi hotspot and an inverter plugged into one of the rear 12v jacks for power. VW vans may not often be thought of as mobile business centers, but that’s exactly what they can be when you need them to!

UAW angered over VW workers getting right to defend anti-union vote
Thu, 13 Mar 2014The United Auto Workers have called a decision by the National Labor Relations Board allowing anti-UAW employees at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga the right to defend voting down unionization at the plant "an outrage."
You'll recall that the union was defeated by a vote of 712 to 626 in a contentious February election. The UAW claims the outcome was unfairly swayed by pro-business, anti-union forces, including Senator Bob Corker and political advocate Grover Norquist.
This new decision by the NLRB essentially gives workers backed by the anti-UAW National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation and Southern Momentum a formal voice in the impending hearing on the UAW's appeal of the vote.
European car sales up 8% in February
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.
Volkswagen breaks 40-year-old sales record in 2012
Sun, 13 Jan 2013The last time Volkswagen moved this many vehicles in America in one year, Richard Nixon was still a President in good standing, Let It Be was a radio hit and each car wearing the VW badge boasted an air-cooled engine. That's right, with a grand total of 580,286 vehicles sold in the US last year, the VW Group has broken its own four-decades-old sales record by 2,899 vehicles.
Of that 580k total sold, 438k were Volkswagens and 139k were Audi products - increases of 35.1 percent and 18.5 percent, respectively, in year-over-year sales. The ultra-premium members of the VW group also fared well; Bentley delivered 2,315 vehicles for a 23.3-precent increase, and Lamborghini delivered 520 units for a 52.9-percent jump. Bugatti, we're told is "right on track."
Jetta (pictured) sales paced the marque with 170k models sold, and Passat also finished very strong with sales of 117k total. Tiguan also racked up its best year on file, with 31,731 models shifted.
