Riverside, California, United States
|
1982 Volkswagen Vanagon Adventurewagon. Excellent running condition. Original paint. Well equipped camper.
The Good: Rebuilt 2.0 liter aircooled flat four engine w/ mild performance SCAT camshaft. Less than 5000 miles on rebuilt engine (115 hours on engine). Uprated 009 transmission from a later model Vanagon along with late model shifter equipped with short throw shift kit and leather knob. 15" Alloy wheels with Vanco tires (D load rated proper for this weight) with approx 50% life still. Within the last 3 years its had new shocks, all new brakes, and ball joints. Brand new fuel pump. Fuel tank has new crossover kit and grommets. South African Grill w/ Halogen head lights. Headlight relay kit installed. CD player w/Ipod hook up Custom dash caddy Extra gauges Two auxiliary batteries installed under back seat (Optima). Front seats have new upholstery and padding. Cabinets rebuilt with butcher block tops. Wood laminate floor. Propane tank Propane heater (never used by us so unsure of its condition...its clean though) Water and waste tanks. Sink, two burner stove and AC/DC fridge. Nice fold out bed. Custom curtains with lining. LED interior lights Ample storage above cab Second bed in upper area. Nice Awning Runs excellent (was just driven from Southern California to Washington State and back after the rebuild) High mounted taillights for tailgaters! Featured in the book "VW Camper Cookbook Rides Again" A new copy will be included with the sale. The Bad: Original paint. It still holds a shine but is showing its age. Its getting thin in parts and has scratches and dings as its been used to camp and go on numerous family trips. No rust but lots of character. Vinyl stripes and decals are sun cracked and shrunk. You could easily live with this and preserve it by keeping it waxed and or covered. If you want a show car it will have to be repainted. The engine: As I have said it was recently rebuilt using a aftermarket performance camshaft from SCAT. The engine runs terrific and the cam gave it that extra bit of power it needed for hills. The problem is when it came time to smog it here in California it wouldnt pass because of it. The new owner will have to be someone in a state with less stringent smog laws or someone that wouldn't mind swapping it out for a stock spec cam (which is all it would need). We have decided not to do the work as we are ready to move on to a bigger RV. The Vanagon has a clear title and the registration fees have been paid up to date. The Vanagon will be sold in AS-IS condition with NO warranty implied or given. All shipping arrangements and expenses to be made by the buyer. Payment to be made by either cash in person , certified bank check , or bank transfer. Title will be held till all funds clear. Pay-Pal to be used for deposit ONLY. Feel free to ask questions or if your local and would like to see it in person contact me to make arrangements. |

Volkswagen adding R-Line trim to Touareg, Tiguan for 2014
Fri, 11 Jan 2013Volkswagen introduced its aggressive R-Line appearance package on the CC and Beetle last year, but later this year, this treatment will also be applied to VW's crossovers, the Tiguan and Touareg. Both sporty-looking utility vehicles will be unveiled next week at the Detroit Auto Show.
The 2014 Tiguan R-Line comes standard with bi-xenon headlights and LED daytime running lights, and the package adds 19-inch wheels, grey fender extensions, body-color side skirts and a liftgate spoiler. Inside, the R-Line adds a flat-bottom sport steering wheel with paddle shifters, a black headliner and numerous metallic trim accents such as the stainless scuff plates, the aluminum pedals and metallic finish on the instrument and door panels. The Tiguan R-Line will be offered in front- and all-wheel drive configurations.
As for the 2014 Touareg R-Line (shown above), this model gets an ever more distinctive look with an aggressive front fascia, 20-inch wheels and dual oval-shaped exhaust outlets in addition to the painted side skirts and LED taillights. Similar metallic interior trim pieces found inside the Tiguan R-Line will also make their way into the Touareg as well as gloss black accents on the instrument panel and center stack.
World Car Of The Year down to its final four
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
Judges for the World Car of the Year Award have narrowed down the finalists to just four vehicles. Out of a total of 42 entries, only the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT-86 and Volkswagen Golf remain standing. For Volkswagen, this marks the second consecutive year the company has had an entry among the finalists, and the fourth time since 2009. In order to qualify, a vehicle must be on sale on two continents during the span of time between January 1, 2013 and May 30, 2013. A panel of 66 journalists from 23 countries then vote on the finalists.
Three vehicles have made the cut for the last round of voting on the 2013 World Performance Car as well, with the Cayman/Boxster and FR-S/BRZ/GT-86 running against the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Meanwhile, the Renault Zoe, Tesla Model S and Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid are duking it out for the World Green Car Award. Finally, the World Car Design of the Year Award is up for grabs between the Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, and the Mazda6. Check out the full press release below. Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.
Production Volkswagen Taigun crossover caught in patent filing?
Wed, 01 May 2013Volkswagen brought an angular, bulldog-like small crossover concept called Taigun to the São Paulo motor show last year, claiming that it wanted to gauge interest in the design before making a decision about production. If a new report with alleged leaked patent images is to be believed, then, interest must have been pretty high.
China's Auto.Sohu.com has published this group of Taigun images, claiming that they have been sourced from the Chinese patent office and that the subcompact VW utility based on the Up! has been cleared for production.
If all of that is true, and if these images are representative of the final product, you'll see that designers haven't done much to alter the concept car's appearance. Comparing, shot for shot, with the images we have from Brazil, we see that even small details like roof rack-mounted lights and exhaust tips integrated in the rear fascia have been carried over. Take a closer look for yourself in the attached galleries.
