Hello

 

We are new to eBay so I apologize for the low rating etc but if you have any questions please message me and I will get back to you. We have just done a 4000 mile road trip across Mexico with the vehicle and now we have to sell it fast as we are flying to europe soon.

 

This is a 1984 VW Transporter / Vanagon / Caravelle van. It has automatic transmission with the original VW/Audi transaxle sytem which is one of the best and most simplest transmission systems ever built. The van has the 2.1liter engine which gives it extra power and reliability and you will not need to do a Waterboxer or Subaru conversion as this little van just flies up any hill with no trouble at all.

 

It is in good running condition for the age of the vehicle and loads of new parts have only just been fitted by a company In Belize called VW-Belize. (check em out if you want) Brakes, tires, steering, ignition, fuel pump, fuel hoses, and filter, sensors, cooling system, suspension parts, starter motor are all brand new + more. The vehicle drives well and is in good overall functioning order. The van is located in Austin Texas and you can come and see and drive the vehicle any time. Just message me and we can meet up. .

 

NEW PARTS 2 upper Ball joints, 2 lower Ball joints, 1 Tie rod end, 1 Steering Rack Boot, 2 rear wheel brake cylinders + rebuild kit / hardware kit for drum brakes , 1 seal  for brake booster, 1 spark plug wire set, 1 fuel pump , 1 fuel filter, 1 high-pressure fuel hose, 1 master cylinder , 1 Ignition Switch , 1 water temp sensor , 1 brake caliper, 1 set of front brake pads, rear brake pads,  1 set of front brake hoses, 1 fan switch, 1 thermostat housing, 1 thermostat, 1 thermostat gasket set, 1 crankcase breather hose, new starter motor, Ball joints, 2 caliper rebuild kit, break hardware-kit, 2 hatch struts . The brakes have been bled and flushed the cooling system and radiator has been flushed and the thermostat works, the fan comes on automatically as it is supposed to, welding work has been done on wheel arches, column, fender and front panel. The fuel tank has been dropped and washed out and the rubber seals replaced. All work carried out by VW-Belize and receipts for parts and labor available.

 

When I bought the vehicle it was a non runner. We have now travelled with the van over 4000 miles from Belize to Austin Texas and it runs really well. We have a video of the whole trip so you can see the van in action.

 

The interior is a bit rough. The back seats are in pretty good shape, the head lining is in very good shape, but the carpet is covered in stains ( I managed to spill my coffee 4 times during the trip. Yes. 4 times) and the front passenger seat is in pretty poor shape and the drivers side is worse. They are all very comfortable though an I had no problem during the 4000 mile trip even after 6 -7 hours of driving.

 

The body work over all is not bad. There are a few minor dings and dents in it and the paint job is not a professional one and close up you can see some runs in the paint and the old VW stickers show though the blue paint. The bumpers have had a knock or two and one of the tail lights is a little broken as is one of the front indicator lights. Still road legal though.

 

Known problems. The brakes squeal. They are brand spanking new and work very well and are very strong but they squeal, When we set of on the trip I thought they would stop squealing after a few hundred miles but they are still making noise. I have had the wheels off but I can not find any thing wrong. I am sure your local VW repair place can fix this in two shakes of a lambs tail. The fuel gauge does not work. The speedometer works fine as does the temp gauge but the odometer stopped ticking over about 11000miles ago and I have not been able to fix it. The engine will tend to stall when still cold and the idle is a little rough. I think it needs a new oxygen sensor. (around $80.00 I think) Nothing much but you will need to get this fixed. It always starts first time. Please bear in mind that this van is 30 years old and has lots of little things wrong with it but it is a good solid van that can be driven all day every day, on the highway and in the city, paved and un paved roads. All the essential electrics work fine ( wipers lights etc) but none of the interior lights work.

 

We may be able to deliver the vehicle to you. We have carried out all checks with the DMV and I can sell you this van and you can get a title in your name no problem.

 

Any questions please message me.

 

Cheers

 

Will

Tanner Foust checks out his new VW Beetle GRC rally car

Thu, 11 Sep 2014

Racing 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.

Volkswagen e-Co-Motion concept poised for delivery to Geneva

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

With Nissan getting ready to launch the e-NV200, it appears Volkswagen is looking to go after the same zero-emission commercial vehicle market with the all-electric 2013 e-Co-Motion Concept. Debuting next week at the Geneva Motor Show, the e-Co-Motion Concept might be small in size, but VW says it has cargo and payload capacities that should be perfect for small businesses.
Measuring 179 inches long, 75 inches wide and 77 inches tall, the e-Co-Motion Concept has about the same footprint as the current Golf, and it has a cargo capacity of 162 cubic feet and a maximum payload of more than 1,700 pounds. There isn't too much information on the e-Co-Motion just yet - such as what electric components and platform are used - but the press release posted below states while the concept is shown as a cargo van, future body styles could include a passenger wagon or a refrigerated box van.

VW updates Scirocco with revised styling, new engines

Sun, 16 Feb 2014

The Scirocco is undoubtedly one of the better-looking models in the Volkswagen lineup, but introduced back in 2008, it's now been on the market - some markets, anyway - for the better part of six years. VW is said to have an all-new replacement in the works, but before that arrives, the German automaker has announced a facelifted version with revised styling and a new engine lineup.
Set to be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show next month, the new Scirocco benefits from updated styling front and rear, high-tech exterior lighting, a revised cabin space with some throwback retro touches, some new technologies and, of course, an array of fresh wheel options ranging from 17 to 19 inches.
The updated Scirocco will be offered with a wide array of engines right from the get-go, including four gasoline options and two diesels, spanning from 125 horsepower all the way up to the 280-hp Scirocco R. The 2014 model hits European showrooms in August, but unfortunately isn't any more likely to make the transatlantic voyage Stateside than the version it replaces. Still interested? There's plenty to see in the high-res image gallery above and details in the press release below.
