Charlotte, North Carolina, United States

It's a 1982 White Westy that shows some age.  Has dings, dents, but all windows are intact, all major features are present.  Original interior and curtains and upholstery.  It does  not run.   This is an air cooled engine with an automatic transmission.  There is a tear in the pop up canvas.

It wasn't running when I bought it, but I replaced the fuel lines, had the fuel tank cleaned and sealed, put in a Bosch coil, new plugs, and it was turning over but not catching.  I suspect new fuel injectors are in order, but there is also the question of vacuum leaks.  Based on aftermarket parts I believe it has been rebuilt at least once, and I have been told that the parts identified are actually better than the originals (I Know - not if you are a purist.)

The tires hold air pretty well, but I would plan on replacing them.  All four hubcaps are here.  Missing some bumper part, end caps.  Definitely needs a mechanic.  Rust through under the rocker panel behind the cabinets.  Someone added big speaker boxes under the top sliding bunk, but the radio was not present when I bought it.  Also, it came without an engine battery, and it will come without one.  I bought an 84 that turned up for sale nearby, and I couldn't refrain from buying it.

No warranty implied.  AS IS.  Please ask all of the questions you can think of before you make an offer to buy. I received it via car carrier as I bought it from Florida.  Depending upon your distance from here, you might consider the same.  Check out Uship.

US Buyers Only.  Deposit via PayPal within 48 hours.  Balance to be paid within 7 days via cash, check, money order, but vehicle and title will not be released until checks/money orders have cleared the bank for sure.

New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise

Mon, 18 Feb 2013

Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?

Volkswagen Cross Up! aimed at rugged lifestyle folks, complete with plastic cladding

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

If you thought there was nothing wrong with the Volkswagen Up! that a little body cladding wouldn't fix, you're in luck. VW has officially pulled the wraps off the production version of the Cross Up!, and its wheel arches and rocker panels are full of the black plastic cladding you've been yearning for.
In addition to the "particularly rugged design and tough, lifestyle qualities" that the cladding exudes, VeeDub has also seen fit to put its Cross Up! on a new set of 16-inch alloy wheels clad in 185/50-series tires. Inside, there are new kick plates to go along with a dash pad that can be had in red, black or silver.
All that cladding must equal additional off-road readiness, right? Well, sure... just so long as you're fine with the same 75-horsepower three-cylinder engine that all other Up! models also feature, along with a five-speed manual transmission sending power to the front wheels, again, just like all other Up! models. The Cross Up! appears to have a taller ride height than other models, but we haven't been able to find out what - if any - changes have been made.

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf just went on sale in Europe, but it is already off to a promising start. Announced as the Geneva Motor Show kicked off, the newest Golf was named European Car of the Year for 2013 in dominating style over cars like the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT86 twins, Volvo V40, Ford B-Max and Mercedes-Benz A-Class.
According to Automotive News Europe, the MkVII Golf won handily over its rivals with a total of 414 votes. The Subaru BRZ and Toyota GT86 received 202 votes finishing in a distant second, while the Volvo V40 (189 votes), Ford B-Max (148 votes) and Mercedes-Benz A-Class (138 votes) round out the top five. The new Golf marks the third Volkswagen product to receive the prestigious award with previous cars including the MkIII Golf and the most recent iteration of the Polo.
