1993 Eurovan weekender package for sale. Please read the entire description for this
sale:
This vehicle has a been a wonderful VW for me. I've had it 5 years, had some great trips with my family, great concerts/tailgating. I am selling as I now have 5 VW’s in my driveway, 2 Vespas, and a London double decker bus in mid restoration. My wife and neighbors are 1/2 step away from killing me if something doesn’t go!!! Anyone who has had one of these knows how versatile they are. Seats 7. Sleeps 4. can fit a full 4'x8' sheet of drywall/plywood inside. Great for taking all the kids to sporting events, and i fit just about everything i ever needed from Home Depot into it with no problem!! I am sad to be listing it, but just too many things going on right now in my driveway ! Seats 2 up front, 5 in the rear (3 along bench seat, 2 in
rear facing seats). Rear seat folds
down, slides out, creating another bed. Top
pops up, but no interior camping gear such as a stove/fridge.
I am the 4th owner of this Eurovan and bought it
in 10/2009 with 145k miles (it now has 179k +/- as I’m still using it daily. It was originally an Arizona car, then to VA
in 2005, then to NJ in 2006.
It originally had an
automatic trans which was essentially non-functioning. I decided to take the manual transmission
out of my other eurovan (same year, hardtop, but with a bad body),
and put the manual trans into this camper.
The manual trans had ~150k when we put it in the camper (installing a
new clutch at the time). All work was
performed by RPM in Westwood, NJ in spring 2010.
Anyone who has had one of these knows how problematic the autotrans can be!! The other engine from the donor Eurovan also comes with this Auction. It has ~150k on it. The camper has run beautifully since the transmission
swapover and I use it as my daily driver as well as periodic trips to Virginia
Beach (about a 7 hour trip each way).
The camper is in decent shape but does need some attention,
especially on a couple of rust spots. I
will list out everything I know to be wrong with the van.
-horn is present but doesn’t work
-cruise control doesn't work -driver’s window won’t go up or down. The motor is fine; it’s an electrical issue
somewhere.
-rear speakers are present but unusable and need to be
replaced.
-AC doesn’t work (blows air, but not cold)
-Dashpod temperature gauge and gas gauge work
intermittently. Articles on various VW
user sights state it’s a loose connection and is fairly common and fixable.
-surface rust along vertical body seams on the side of the
camper in the rear.
-surface and rocker rust on passenger side front door (worst
area and perforated)
-surface rust on driver rocker area
-minor defects/broken pieces in trim work (see pictures)
-exhaust has several leaks.
Muffler is only a year old, but area around the catalytic converter has
leaks; not the cat itself though.
-handle to open the cargo door is broken. It functions fine, but the part that you
squeeze with the grip of your fingers is split in two.
-pop top canvas has some tears but can be repaired without
having to completely remove everything (I envisioned simply cutting out the bad
areas and sewing in a screened area, but never got around to it).
-Radio functions perfectly but is the originally cassette
player (hey, at least it’s not 8-track!)
Positive stuff:
-I have all service records since I’ve owned it, and a lot
of records from prior owners
-Tires are Kumho 235/65/16 104H which are rated at 104H (for heavier cars)
and have ~80% tread left on them. 1
extra tire comes with it (same as 4 on the van).
-All screens,curtains, and headrests are on or with the
camper
-Fiamma F45 retractable awning (works beautifully!) -Roof racks (but not for anything super heavy; maybe skis, surboard, or perhaps a canoe) -all cup holders are intact :) -
I encourage potential buyers to come see it, test drive it,
etc… I will also take it to a local shop/dealer of your choice to have them do
an overall inspection of the vehicle (potential buyers and I would have to agree how to handle this).
I will do my best to provide any additional pictures
and/or video requested.
Camper is also listed locally so I reserve the right to end
the auction early if there is a non-ebay buyer.
Camper is a nice vehicle with some issues due to age and wear and tear;
but all issues can be resolved.
I have set a reserve price which I feel is reasonable, in line with market prices MINUS the estimated costs to repair all items I listed as being problematic with the vehicle. I will edit auction to add a "buy it now price" if an acceptable offer is made (otherwise, we just let the auction runs its course) I am available to show/test drive it Mon/Tues/Sat/Sun of this week. I will NOT ship to Nigeria, will not accept checks from Nigeria, won't wire money to Nigeria, and won't deal with folks who's secretary "accidentally" sent me $5,000 too much. I also don't have a lot of patience for buyers who want to ding ebay sellers for differences in opinion on the condition of items being sold. If you want more detail, ask: I will send you as many pictures as I can. I will work with any buyer if there is truly something that I have overlooked, but if its just a buyer with an overinflated sense of entitlement, well, please just move along and save your drama for someone else. Happy bidding. I will do my best to answer questions in a timely fashion. Thank you!

Volkswagen hatches hotter GTI in Geneva
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The all-new seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't even launched here in the United States, but over in Geneva, we're already getting our first glimpse at the hotter GTI hatchback. The fancy new Mk VII Golf is already off to a healthy start with positive reviews in Europe, and we have no doubt that this next GTI will work hard to regain its title as king of the hot hatches.
The big news for this generation of GTI is that for the first time ever, Volkswagen is actually offering two different power grades for the model, both relying on the 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four. Standard cars pack 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, but an optional performance pack ups the horsepower number to 230. Hitting 60 miles per hour takes 6.5 seconds (6.4 with the performance pack) and top speed is quoted at 153 mph (or 155 with the performance kit). Volkswagen will continue to offer the GTI with both six-speed manual and dual-clutch transmissions.
On the visual front, the sub-3,000-pound GTI adds the usual bit of hot hatch aggression over the standard Golf, and those changes carry over to the interior with a flat-bottomed wheel and, of course, plaid seats. She's certainly a looker, and while some of us do find the new Golf's design to be a bit staid and evolutionary, the enhancements for the GTI indeed tug on our enthusiast heart strings.
Brazil contemplates safety exemption for VW Kombi as it goes out of production today [w/poll]
Tue, 31 Dec 2013Brazil: the country of carnivals, indescribable beauty adjacent to abject poverty, Ayrton Senna and old Volkswagen models. Only they're not old - they're new, they're just based on old designs. The original Beetle continued production there long after it had been phased out elsewhere, but the original Kombi van has lasted much longer. That ends today, however, with the iconic VW Microbus ambling out of production on the last day of 2013.
VW kept making the van in Brazil with the original air-cooled 1.2-liter boxer four until 2005, after which the original design was updated with a 1.4-liter water-cooled engine. Today, however, it ultimately falls prey to safety regulations that mandate that all vehicles - no matter how old their design - need to have airbags and ABS, forcing Volkswagen do Brasil to cease production of the Microbus after a 56-year production run. But the latest word is that the Kombi (as it's presently known) could get a stay of execution - or at least a resurrection in short order.
According to reports, the Brazilian government is looking into granting the Type 2 Microbus an exemption from said safety regulations, reasoning that the van was designed long before the advent of airbags and ABS. If the measure goes through, the Kombi Last Edition (pictured above) could prove not to be the last at all. So what do you think, should the Microbus get an exemption from Brazilian safety regulations for nostalgia's sake? Vote in our poll below, then have your say in Comments.
If VW defaults on loans it may sell Bentley or Lamborghini
Mon, Dec 7 2015If something goes catastrophically wrong with Volkswagen Group's recent $21 billion loan, brands like Bentley or Lamborghini could hit the auction block. According to two insiders to Reuters, the beleaguered German automaker agrees with its creditors to sell assets if the company somehow can't pay back the debt in a year. One of these anonymous people claimed the company hasn't yet deliberated over what to sell. However, the sources were willing to speculate that the power engineering portion of Man could be among the first to go. "Volkswagen may also consider divesting luxury car brands Bentley and Lamborghini or motor bike brand Ducati, although these units don't really move the needle," an insider said to Reuters. VW Group negotiated with the banks earlier this week to get the massive loan. The cash is necessary as a buffer in case the automaker doesn't have enough money on hand to repair vehicles or settle upcoming fines. VW would reportedly issue bonds in the spring to begin paying the debt. The company's bills will start racking up quickly in the new year. German authorities mandate a recall there in early 2016, and repair campaigns in the US for the 2.0- and 3.0-liter diesel engines are inevitable. There are also hundreds of class-action lawsuits to settle. The company needs to resolve its CO2 emissions scandal in Europe, too. In response to these financial threats, VW management created a cost-cutting plan to slash the research and development budget by $1.1 billion next year.
