93 Eurovan MV for restore or parts, near Gettysburg PA. IMPORTANT: PLEASE NOTE: 3 day auction, no reserve, MUST BE MOVED BY MAY 24th, 5 pm. I've got 75+ guests coming in next weekend, and need my old friend out of the way. If van is not moved by then, the 175 deposit is forfeited as I need to move it some other way and pay my ebay fee. Thanks.
The van: one day it wouldn't start (no whir, r-r-r-r. no nothing). We had several vehicles so I didn't fix it, but as it was my daughter's favorite, I held on to it. Never fixed it. Time to let it go to someone that can use it (or use parts of it).
THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY:
THE GOOD: until it didn't start (starter? solenoid?) the engine ran well and the transmission worked well. Seat upholstery is in good shape. HUGE luggage area in rear. Fold down back seat to connect to uphosltered cargo area and it makes a very large bed. Cool rear seat arrangement faces each other with fold out table (this is what my daughter loved). Water pump and timing belt replaced some years ago.
THE BAD: a.) not running [see above] b.) worse: hasn't been run in several years (don't remember when, but the inspection sticker expired July 2010. I would imagine the fuel injection system would be pretty gummed up, aside from other problems of sitting idle. c.) when it was running, the AC didn't work d.) van needed - and still would need - a new tensioner for the serpentine belt. Not long before it stopped starting, I'd replaced the serpentine belt but didn't replace the tensioner. The old tensioner had gotten stiff, and so it made the new belt squeal. It ran fine, but was noisy. d.) missing sliding window on passenger side rear door, damaged mirror on driver side, some loose panels inside e.) latch doesn't snap tight on rear door, f.) driver seat very hard to shift postion, sometimes I've had to unbolt to change f.) various other issues of a twenty year old van that has been sitting a while that are not coming to mind right now
THE UGLY: faded paint (especially on hood and roof), bend in hood where someone tried to shut it with the brace in place, a bit of rust on lower sides, dirty carpet
IMPORTANT: We have about 75+ guests coming next weekend. THIS IS A 3 DAY AUCTION WITH NO RESERVE. VAN MUST BE PICKED UP BY MAY 24th 5PM at the latest. Buyer must put down $175 deposit that will not be refunded if you do not have the van moved by May 24th at 5pm. There is a salvage yard nearby that might pick it up and hold it for a few days for a fee, but you would need to arrange that with them. Nice guys, I think they'd do it for a fair rate. Thanks! -questions, submit Q to seller or call Scott at 717 321 3321.

Volkswagen Multivan Alltrack Concept takes the luxury van life off road
Wed, 05 Mar 2014Volkswagen dug into its commercial vehicle fleet for its latest Geneva Motor Show concept, blending the versatile body of the T5 MultiVan with a luxuriously appointed interior, 4Motion all-wheel drive and a thrifty diesel powertrain.
That 177-horsepower diesel engine routes its power to the AWD system through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Based on that alone, we'd expect the Multivan Alltrack's behind-the-wheel experience to be somewhat familiar. That all-wheel-drive system and van body contribute to the 21-degree approach and 15-degree departure angles of this soft-roading MultiVan.
What wouldn't be familiar is its exquisite cabin. Volkswagen opted for a nautical theme for the concept's interior, featuring grey-blue leather seats from Poltrona Frau and a floor finished in real wood. The dark wood trim can also be found throughout the interior, running below the windows and on the dash.
VW's Winterkorn tells 20,000 staffers of big cost-cutting plans
Thu, 24 Jul 2014During a gathering of 20,000 Volkswagen Group employees at company headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany on Wednesday, CEO Martin Winterkorn dropped a bombshell. The boss stated that the automaker isn't operating efficiently enough and admitted the company needs to radically start cutting back to raise its profit margins. To right the ship, Winterkorn has proposed killing off less profitable models and spending less on research and development.
According to Reuters, Winterkorn wants to raise the VW brand's profit margin from about 2.9 percent in 2013 to a target of 6 percent. To make that possible, his plan amounts to increasing cost cutting until Volkswagen reaches about 5 billion euros ($6.7 billion) per year to get things back in order. "Over the short-term, we urgently need more efficiency and higher profit," the CEO said during his speech, according to Reuters.
However, Winterkorn can't make these decisions unilaterally. Volkswagen's works council also has a seat on the supervisory board to represent laborers, and it isn't likely to take the proposed cuts sitting down.
2014 Volkswagen Golf GTD is our favorite oil-burning GTI
Tue, 05 Mar 2013
The 2014 Volkswagen Golf GTD has officially bowed at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. Engineers managed to squeeze an additional 14 horsepower and 22 pound-feet of torque out of the familiar 2.0-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engine, nudging total output to 184 hp and 280 lb-ft for 2014. The figures are good enough to earn the GTD the honor of being the most powerful diesel Golf in Volkswagen history. A start/stop system helps improve efficiency over the previous generation with the new model consuming 56 miles per gallon on the EU cycle. That's up from the 2013 model's 46 mpg. A six-speed manual transmission is standard equipment, though a six-speed dual-clutch gearbox is also available.
The GTD also offers buyers a few aesthetic tweaks to help separate the hatch from its less potent siblings. Those include a more aggressive front fascia, special badges and 17-inch alloy wheels. Expect to find the GTD in one of three exterior colors, including Tornado Red, Black and Pure White. Check out the quick press release below for more details.
