2001 VW Eurovan Westfalia.  This is the very last revision of the VW Westfalia ever made.  It has the fastest motor ever put in a VW camper van, the 24 valve VR6.  This is the second motor in this van that was put in by the dealer by the previous owner.  It runs great,  starts every time and recently completed a trip from Colorado to Virginia and back with absolutely no issues.  The trans has been recently serviced as well as a new heater core and inner and outer tie rod ends.   There is a 1 1/4' receiver hitch I put on to use my bike rack with.  It has never towed anything and has no trailer wiring but is nice for racking.  It also has artificial rain gutters mounted to run thule or Yakima roof racks.  The interior is clean and parts are functioning.  The rear bed works and is nice for winter camping,  the top pops nice and the loft bed is clean,  The only part of the interior missing are the armrest on passenger front seat,  easy replacement.  The windows are tinted dark in the back and I have the rear window and rear side window curtains.  The wheels are stock 16" alloy and have been painted black but could be removed if owner wanted them silver again.  The table and fridge both work.  There are several power ports throughout the van.  I have recently replaced the auxiliary battery and put the biggest one that would fit correctly.  The interior florescent lights work well and light it up nicely at night.  The second rear facing jump seat is included but not pictured.  it is in great shape because it has been out for extra space most of the time.  I have never owned a vehicle that was so versatile.  I love VW's. 

Goodyear Eagle Ultra Grip Tires, very little wear and very good on and off road.  This van has ESP traction control and does very well in the snow.  There are new front shocks and front wheel bearings on this Eurovan. 

This is a stock VW paint job,  it has not been repainted. This is the GTI of VW camper vans.

This van is for sale locally as well and I reserve the right to end the auction early.

Anti-union group files lawsuit against VW and UAW

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

The fight for unionization at Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN, factory isn't letting up. Yesterday, the National Labor Relations Board decided to allow anti-United Auto Workers employees at the plant the right to defend voting down the measure. Now, a group called the National Right to Work Foundation has filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of five workers against VW and the UAW for allegedly working together to organize.
The group says in a release that it wants "to block further collusion between the company and the United Auto Workers." It alleges that VW forced workers to attend "mandatory pro-union meetings" and prevented managers from opposing. In a rebuttal on its website, the UAW called the claims "baseless" and said its actions were entirely legal.
One possible problem faces the carmaker in regards to the lawsuit. According to the Detroit Free Press, a recent US Court of Appeals ruling found that neutrality agreements like the one the business had with the UAW could be illegal if the company provided "things of value" to the union. The newspaper also claims that VW held a mandatory employee meeting concerning the election, but workers were free to leave during the UAW's presentation.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?

Lamborghini and Bentley may hold off on SUVs so VW can conserve cash

Thu, 11 Oct 2012

After surveying the European economic scene, Volkswagen may have decided now is not the time to launch utility vehicles with Bentley and Lamborghini badges. Bentley officials say they will continue to push for support for the EXP 9 F and Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelman has said planning for the Urus will continue until VW tells it to stop.
That decision could come on November 23, when VW's board will vote on the company's budget for equipment, factories and vehicles. With VW's sales slowing and the Euro economy slumping further, some industry watchers say the company is more likely to build its cash reserves than to introduce super-expensive luxury SUVs or crossovers.
"Such vehicles are anything but obligatory during a crisis," says Frankfurt-based Equinet AG analyst Tim Schuldt in a new Automotive News Europe story. "Delaying their launch would be no drama but help save costs."
