1986 VW Vanagon Westfalia Camper

You are looking at a 1986 VW Westfalia Camper. This is essentially the final version of the Westfalia Vanagons the way they were built until 1991. It has the stronger 2.1 liter water cooled engine, the newer ducts and the cooling system like all the later models ('86 and up) have. It is in nice condition and we have had it serviced at a local VW shop. Amongst other things, the following was done: Engine compression test check (Checked out very well), Replaced overflow and extra coolant tank, Flushed old sulphate free coolant and replaced it with new sulphate free coolant (important if you do not want your engine walls to corrode), Replaced ingnition and had the central locking system repaired. It is a very clean camper since it is a California car. It has original paint and it has virtually no rust with two exceptions, which are as classic for these Vans as the vans themselves: One quarter size rust spot under the front windshield and one also about quarter size rust spot on the bottom right hand side of the rear window. The rear window rust has a little hole. There are a couple of dents in the driver side door but nothing major. Everything works as it should and the AC blows ice cold since the previous owner had replaced all the ducts and the AC unit. The refrigerator works fine on both settings: electric and gas. The kitchen is very clean and everything works great including sink and stove. All the trim for the pop up top has been replaced which means no cracked rubber seals and no leaks. The pop up camper works like new and the Van still has the original "single window" fabric with no holes or tears. In case you are wondering: The Westfalia sleeps four people: Two on the lower level bed and two on the upper (pop up). The exhaust system is a stainless steel version and is also in great shape. The Vanagon just recently passed CA smog without issues. The engine is strong and the tires have a lot of tread left. This Vanagon comes with all original locks and also still has the original locked gas cap with one VW key opening every lock. The tires were upgraded to the 16" "Go Westy" wheels and the wheels have been custom chromed. All windows with exception to the front windshield have been tinted professionally. No bubbles or nasty wrinkles. If you didn't know they are tinted, you wouldn't notice. The car comes with the original curtains and additional curtains to cover the front windshield and the driver and passenger windows for privacy. We took the car for a 1000 mile road trip recently and everything is fine. The engine in this Vanagon is the second one and it has roughly 100k miles on it. It is an original non rebuilt engine which was taken from a donor Van. This should be good for at least another 150k miles before it needs a rebuild. The transmission shifts nicely but (for full disclosure) it does have a slight hesitation shifting into third. I think this is all that I could say about the car. This wil be a reliable and solid camper for years to come and when it eventually will need some attention, it will be worth it, since these are quite collectible vehicles at this point. One last thing: The '86 year model is the last year where they still used the more beautiful chrome bumpers instead of the plastic ones. These look beautiful and are in very nice shape. Please understand that this is a 27 year old car and while I have described everything I know about this car, I am not offering any kind of warranty or guarantees. The Van is sold as is.

New Volkswagen Beetle is on the way

Wed, Apr 1 2015

Recent reports have suggested that the future of the Volkswagen Beetle could be in jeopardy, but those rumors have now been squashed. Dr. Heinz-Jakob Neusser, member of the board of management responsible for development at Volkswagen, confirmed to Autoblog that not only will the Beetle live on, a new generation will arrive in "the next up to three years." The next Beetle will move to Volkswagen's scalable MQB architecture. These bones currently underpin the Golf in the US, as well as a range of products available in Europe and other markets. That's not really surprising, given the MQB architecture's flexibility. But what's interesting is that, according to Neusser, using the MQB platform opens the door for electrification possibilities in the Beetle. That could mean a hybrid drivetrain, or even a fully electric example like the e-Golf hatchback. The Beetle "will remain an emotional design," Neusser told Autoblog. That said, it will be "developed in a new design language," in keeping with Volkswagen's plans to offer "much more dynamic, much more emotional" designs on its future cars. "We would like to support more emotional potential [for the Beetle]," Neusser said. This can certainly be seen here at the New York Auto Show, where Volkswagen is rolling out four showcars that demonstrate the potential for unique versions of the Bug. Even beyond that, Volkswagen has already confirmed that the Beetle Dune concept will see production, and Neusser hinted that while the New York showcars are still being evaluated, the Denim convertible will likely come to market. So the future is anything but grim for the Beetle. And in fact, there's a whole lot of potential for Volkswagen's iconic two-door. Related Video:
