 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.

Volkswagen Golf Wagon caught completely uncovered

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Without a lot of information to go with them, our camera-toting spies have captured some new images of a Volkswagen Golf wagon variant that is almost completely undisguised. In fact, the one piece of camouflage on the tidy wagon would probably have gone unnoticed to most casual viewers. Look closely at the rear three-quarter view of the car and you'll notice that the apparent taillight clusters are actually fakes - the outline of the real units is faintly visible behind the blue bodywork and the sticker-like fake taillights.
It's a good guess then, that this Golf wagon (called a Golf Kombi by our spy photographer) is a prototype that's pretty far along in the development cycle for Volkswagen. We can't be sure what impact this will have on the company's small wagon offering here in the US, but we'd be pretty surprised if something very like this didn't end up as the next Jetta SportWagen. We might well have more information on that front, after we visit Geneva next week.

Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf

Wed, 10 Sep 2014

Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.

2015 VW Golf R caught getting a flogging on 'Ring

Wed, 22 May 2013

The upcoming version of the Volkswagen Golf R is nearly ready for prime time, if this video of the car flying around the Nürburgring is any indication. The all-wheel-drive R seems to make quick, neat work of the corners we see here, and sounds pretty devilish in the process.
Expectations are that the new Golf R will run a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder (what else?), tuned to produce even more than the current car's 256 horsepower. (Some sources have indicated outputs as high as 286 horsepower, with 280 pound-feet of torque. It's still not clear if Volkswagen will bring the six-speed dual-clutch transmission to the US-spec Golf R in this next go-round or if we'll stick to having only... eh... the stick.
In either case - watching the video below will only whet your appetite for the new, highest performing member of the Golf family.
