This is a museum quality Westfalia Camper. The German VIN # is 246318403591208720VIN # but ebay is not set up to do these numbers in the listing info. This camperwas a one prior owner vehicle I bought from the Towe Museum in Sacramento. It has lived in California all its life until I bought it and moved it to Texas. It has always been garaged and there is not a speck of rust on it anywhere. The original paint shines almost as new, all the chrome, rubber, and trim are as new. I have driven it over 5,000 miles and never once had a mechanical problem. The clutch is smooth, the tranny shifts like new and it drives, rides, and handles better than my 2010 MKZ. It gets 20 mpg at highway speeds, uses no oil between changes and is fun to drive. The original interior shows almost no sign of wear and it comes with everything that was in it as a new vehicle and everything works, even the clock. As an added bonus, since it gets HOT here in Texas, I installed a 2000 watt genset on the front and a 5,000 BTU air conditioner in part of the hanging clothes locker with custom designed ducting. It will not cool the whole camper but with outside temps of over 100 it will keep the sleeping area comfortable. Words cannot really describe this one of a kind VW but if you are into camping, this one deserves your consideration. Thank you for looking. D. Scott

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 announces recall of 26,000 2014 models with 1.8T engines
Tue, 22 Apr 2014Volkswagen has followed up on a stop-sale order from earlier this month, announcing a voluntarily recall of 26,400 vehicles that are powered by the brand's 1.8-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The new mill replaced the despised 2.5-liter five-cylinder in the Jetta, Passat, Beetle and Beetle Convertible last year. Weirdly, though, of the 26,452 units covered in the recall, only 1,655 are customer vehicles.
According to VW, the affected models were built between February 1 and April 6 of this year, and feature bad O-ring seals in the transmission oil cooler. Apparently, the faulty O-rings could cause a fluid leak, as they won't seal between the oil cooler and transmission. VW is blaming a material change from a supplier for the problem.
There have been no fires, injuries, accidents or fatalities relating to this issue, which VW will be fixing free of charge. Customers will need to report to dealers to have the O-rings replaced.
