1986 Volkswagen Vanagon Gl With 19,637 Registered Miles on 2040-cars
Stockbridge, Georgia, United States
|
How extremely rare is this a 1986 Vanagon GL 19,637 registered miles Oh yes, the odometer works. Driven hardly at all the last eleven years and parked for the last three by the previous owner. I bought it to install a turbo diesel in, but once I cleaned it up and got it running I just couldn’t bring myself to start the project. I have since procured a Syncro for the diesel conversion. The Good: 19,637 original miles Original Paint and Interior, it has spent its life here in Georgia, so no rust 95%+ tread remaining on tires(new or very close) Everything works including A/C, rear wiper and washer, A/C converted to R134 recharged and blows cold, belts and some hoses replaced, oil and filtered changed Engine always starts right up and runs smooth(it does have a slight valve tick if it is left to set) Transmission shifts smoothly, doesn’t seem to leak or use any fluid. Steering is tight, as you would expect on such a low mileage Vanagon. It rides and drives like new The seats are like new (except for a hole in drivers-pic). A rip at rear of sliding door panel http://s124.photobucket.com/user/cecilmcgranahan/media/photo11_zpsa20bbfcb.jpg.html?state=copy The not so good: The paint is original but with typical nicks, dings, a few small scratches and a small dent by the passenger side brake light. Clear coat is not peeling anywhere but has some fading in areas. That said, it cleans up and shines nicely Exterior trim is sun faded around windows Dash is cracked, some interior brown trim pieces have become brittle(front door grab bars and window cranks, rear washer cap cover), map pocket has a crack It has been four of five years since I have seen a Vanagon with this low miles and this nice of original condition. Not that many out there left like this. I will accept wire transfer of funds to my bank only, no checks. Buyer responcible for shipping costs, funds must be in my bank account before I will release the car for shipment. Car sold as is, no warranty implied or expressed. |

Volkswagen CrossBlue previews a three-row future, diesel-hybrid power [w/video]
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Volkswagen looks to be getting ready to jump into the large three-row crossover game. The automaker has officially pulled back the curtain on the CrossBlue Concept at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
Designers and engineers penned the machine specifically for the Canadian and US markets, and with a plug-in diesel electric hybrid drivetrain, the hulking five-door, at least in concept form, should offer substantially better efficiency than anything else on the market. The drivetrain pairs a 2.0-liter turbo diesel four-cylinder engine with two electric motors for a combined output of 305 horsepower and a ludicrous 516 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed dual-clutch gearbox handles shifting detail, while one electric motor spins the front wheels. The second motor spins the back axle independently, make the CrossBlue a through-the-road hybrid.
As a result, the crossover can pop to 60 mph in 7.2 seconds. Perhaps more impressively, the CrossBlue can whir around on all-electric propulsion for up to 14 miles at up to 75 mph. Once the diesel four kicks in, the drivetrain can yield up to 39 mpg, though Volkswagen says the hardware can hit 89 MPGe on a full charge thanks to a 9.8 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Check out the full press release below for more information.
VW recalls 1.1M Jetta, Beetle models in US, China over suspension fears
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Volkswagen is recalling about 1.1 million vehicles in China and North America in a newly announced campaign affecting the rear suspensions on some models. For the US, the action covers about 442,265 vehicles, including 400,602 examples of its 2011-2013 Jetta and 41,663 units of the 2012-2013 Beetle and Beetle Convertible. According to Reuters, the recall affects a further 126,000 vehicles in Canada and about 581,090 in China, including related market-specific models like the Sagitar.
The problem can occur if the affected models have a collision to the rear or the side-rear of the vehicle. It's then possible for the trailing arms on the torsion-beam rear suspension to be damaged. If the harm isn't noticed, then the part could fracture while driving. Obviously, a broken rear suspension is going to have an adverse effect on handling.
To fix things, VW dealers will inspect the trailing arms on the models, and they will all receive a sheetmetal part that will make a distinctive sound if broken in the future. If already damaged, the entire torsion beam will be replaced. Obviously, this work will be done at no charge to owners.
Volkswagen Group previews its wares on eve of Geneva show
Mon, 05 Mar 2012The Volkswagen Group is comprised of 11 brands producing 240 vehicles across 49 factories throughout the world. So the best way to show off the range of the VW family is to cram a few thousand journalists and VIPs into a massive makeshift stand to outline the Group's goals, what's in the pipeline and what you'll be able to buy later this year.
To that end, VW pulled out all the stops on the eve of the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, bringing along 10 vehicles from across the range. We'll be delving into the details of each over the next two days of show coverage, but before that happens, you can read all about what we saw tonight from the cheap seats after the break.
