This is a 1990 Vanagon.  Carat euro sport package model.   Includes the rare Tornado red paint,  Factory 14" alloy rims, Weekender style interior with the drop leaf table and 2 removable rear facing jump seats.  The Carat model came stock with a lowered Euro sport look with aprox 2" shorter springs than the other vanagon models.  Also stock was the electric windows and mirrors, the fiberglass cladding and bumpers and the Tornado red paint and sport rims.   


About the condition:  The van starts and runs, but is a bit rough.   The compression test showed that leak down was within speck.   There is a new head installed on the right side.   The motor should be professionally inspected and is in need of tuning.  Automatic trans shifts fine.  Body is in overall nice shape.  Needs a rear bumper for sure and the cladding needs to be cleaned up and a clip or 2 is missing.   Rust is not visible except for a minor seam.   The interior is in fair shape and needs to be cleaned but is in tact.   Seats are both missing one arm rest each.   Dash is in perfect condition.   Ac is not working and neither are the electric windows or mirrors, may be a fuse.   

This is good candidate for an engine swap and or restoration.    I had intended to do a full restoration but my Mechanic/body shop mans building burned down last week so I don't have the facility to do the work now, also im moving out of the country in 2 months.   

Please, if you plan on bidding plan on paying via pay pal or wire funds within 48 hrs.  I can assist if you send a u-ship transport company to pick up.  Plans  needs to be started with in 48 hrs. of auction close.  I have had people default on other deals and it's a waste of everyones time.  You will be reported if you flake out.  I will give wire or pay-pal address instruction via email after the auction.   Good luck.

VW promises 7-seat CUV for America in 2016

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

On the eve of the Detroit Auto Show, Volkswagen chief executive Martin Winterkorn has confirmed the imminent arrival of a new crossover. The model, previewed at the same show last year by the CrossBlue concept pictured here, will be unique to the North American market when it arrives here in 2016. The new three-row, seven-seat crossover is part of an ambitious expansion plan on the part of Volkswagen and Audi in North America, where the two brands aim to sell a million vehicles by 2018.
That's a mighty big increase over the 600,000 vehicles which the Volkswagen Group sold here last year, but it's moving in the right direction: That number is already a 100-percent increase of what it sold here just five years ago. At that rate, VW should have little trouble meeting its goals, particularly with the arrival of the new crossover and the introduction of Golf production at its assembly plant in Puebla, Mexico. Read the full statement below for more.

VW to unveil diesel-electric Twin-Up! in Tokyo

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

We've received multiple reports that Volkswagen will be bringing a diesel-electric concept to the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show, set to take place later this month. The car, called the Twin-Up!, is based on the Up! city car, with some sources claiming this is a thinly veiled concept that will eventually enter production.
According to Automotive News Europe, the Twin-Up! will reportedly return 214 miles per gallon on the US cycle by combining an 800-cc, two-cylinder diesel and an electric motor. It will also boast plug-in capabilities, and will be able to cover 30 miles on electric power alone.
Autocar has a more complete picture of the Twin-Up!'s powertrain, though, claiming it's a modified version of the hybrid system found in the Volkswagen XL1. The Twin-Up! will get a more potent, 47-horsepower electric motor to the XL1's 27-hp unit, but will retain that car's 47-hp turbodiesel. The battery pack will also grow, from 5.5 kilowatt hours to 8.6 kWh. Both of these increases are necessary due to the increased weight of the Twin-Up! - it's some 900 pounds heavier than an XL1.
