Volkswagen Eurovan Westfalia Weekender Edition With Pop Top on 2040-cars
Saint Paul, Minnesota, United States

Want to live your VW camper van dreams? I did. I have wanted a pop-up camper van since I was 16 years old. I found this one two years ago and bought it in June 2012 from a private seller in Illinois. It was clean, low-mileage and treated like a member of the family. The engine was replaced at approximately 112k miles so while the van itself has 148k miles, the engine is a baby of 36k. I've lived two footloose and camping-filled years in it and am moving on to my next lifelong dream (Vintage Airstream or Scamp renovation!).
The van is in great shape. I've kept it road ready and would drive it anywhere. (In fact, we're probably on a trip right now so there might be a few more miles on it by the time you buy it. It is my every day vehicle that gets used to drive to the train station as well.) It seats 7 and sleeps 4. There's a cooler under the driver's side rear-facing seat, which keeps your snacks and bevvies cool. Plus, it has a factory installed auxilliary battery so you can keep it on without draining your battery. It has an easily removable rear-facing seat on the passenger side, fold-up table and of course, the rear bench folds down into a great, big comfy bed. You'll see photos of all of the interior screens and curtains along with the cooler, etc. The van was in a minor car accident in 2013. Someone pulled out of a lot and into me at a low speed. No frame damage was done and the van was repaired by VW loving experts at a certified auto-body shop. The sliding door was replaced and the passenger side was repainted so it literally looks as good as new. There is a crack in the back gate and a small paint ding on the van. All the curtains are functioning and close up tight for camping privacy. There are extra screens, etc. with the van. The front of the pop top has some canvas repairs to keep it bug free. I replaced the ac at 124k. All new tires at 136k. New battery, tie rods, ball joints and complete alignment at 141k. New muffler at 145k, which I did pretty much just for YOU dear buyer so that it sounds sweet and runs like a top. I also had the interior detailed so it's clean as a whistle. |

Tanner Foust checks out his new VW Beetle GRC rally car
Thu, 11 Sep 2014Racing driver and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is a very busy guy. After all, he's competing in rounds of both Global Rallycross series and FIA World Rallycross Championship, not to mention his TV duties. However, we probably shouldn't feel too sorry for him, because his job puts him behind the wheel of some truly crazy machinery.
Case in point is his latest ride in Global Rallycross - the Volkswagen Beetle GRC. The German company claims that this all-wheel drive Bug makes around 540 horsepower from its 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and can shoot to 60 in under 2 seconds. Plus, if this video is any indication, this Volkswagen sounds like a machine gun when throwing revs at idle, and it can do some wonderfully easy four-wheel drifts.
Previously, Foust was driving a VW Polo for Andretti Autosport in GRC, but the team unveiled the look of the Beetle GRC at the Chicago Auto Show. Now, Foust is finally getting to show off his new office to the public, and like VW's tagline for the new car claims, it's way hotter than Herbie.
VW updates Scirocco with revised styling, new engines
Sun, 16 Feb 2014The Scirocco is undoubtedly one of the better-looking models in the Volkswagen lineup, but introduced back in 2008, it's now been on the market - some markets, anyway - for the better part of six years. VW is said to have an all-new replacement in the works, but before that arrives, the German automaker has announced a facelifted version with revised styling and a new engine lineup.
Set to be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show next month, the new Scirocco benefits from updated styling front and rear, high-tech exterior lighting, a revised cabin space with some throwback retro touches, some new technologies and, of course, an array of fresh wheel options ranging from 17 to 19 inches.
The updated Scirocco will be offered with a wide array of engines right from the get-go, including four gasoline options and two diesels, spanning from 125 horsepower all the way up to the 280-hp Scirocco R. The 2014 model hits European showrooms in August, but unfortunately isn't any more likely to make the transatlantic voyage Stateside than the version it replaces. Still interested? There's plenty to see in the high-res image gallery above and details in the press release below.
UAW tactics called into question at VW's TN plant
Thu, 26 Sep 2013The United Auto Workers is in hot water with some of the very workers it is trying to unionize at Volkswagen's Chattanooga assembly plant. According to The Tennessean, eight Volkswagen factory workers have filed complaints against the UAW with the National Labor Relations Board, claiming the union "misled or coerced" them into formally asking for union representation.
The UAW has instituted a major push at the Chattanooga plant to represent the 2,500 hourly laborers that build the VW Passat by using what's called a card-check process. The tactic is opposed by the National Right to Work Legal Defense foundation, the group representing the workers. The card-check process demands that a company recognize a union that obtains the signatures of more than half its workforce, according to The Tennessean. This tactic is in contrast to the more traditional route, which sees employees vote on union representation.
The workers filing the complaint claim that the UAW told them the cards merely called for a secret ballot, rather than an outright demand for union representation. Workers also allege that the UAW has made it overly difficult to reclaim their signed cards, some of which were signed so long ago that they have been rendered invalid. Although the cards can force a company's hand, federal law still allows the company to ask for a secret ballot before yielding to unionized workers.
