2003 Eurovan MV. Enthusiast owned, in perfect mechanical condition, with 110,091 miles. I purchased this van in 2008 shortly after it had come off lease at about 85,000 miles. Since I have owned it, I have maintained it religiously, with all fluid and filter changes exceeding VW recommendations. That includes engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, power steering fluid, oil, air, cabin, and fuel filters. Transmission shifts smoothly and I've changed the ATF fluid and filter twice. Engine is perfect and all spark plugs were replaced. I replaced the water pump and serpentine belt as a preventative measure. The AC system received an overhaul with new compressor, expansion valves, and drier/filter. AC is ice cold and heat is blazing.
Bilstein shocks were put on the front and back. Rear tires are between 7/32 and 8/32 (70% to 80%) and front tires are at 6/32 or 60%. A Class 2 hitch was added only for carrying bicycles (never towed anything).
The van has plush LLoyd Mats in the front and rear passenger area. These mats look great and have excellent coverage, giving the van the feel of having new carpet.
Modifications include a Blaupunkt in-dash DVD Stereo that is wired to a custom mounted 20" LCD TV in the back. This mount is easily removable with the twist of a pipe connection. This is a rare non-weekender MV that contains an auxiliary battery. I had an auto electric shop make a custom wiring harness models after the German Weekender wiring harness. A high capacity auxiliary battery is installed under the drivers seat, with a custom fuse panel and new power leads at the rear of the seat. One of these leads provides power to the TV and the other provides an outlet for a refrigerator or other accessory. The TV outlet has an voltage regulator installed in-line. I've modded the electrical system so that all of the rear lights and outlets run off of the auxiliary battery and I've added a aux battery volt meter to the dash.
A 120V GFCI outlet has been installed in the cabin area, with an extension cord that is accessed from a faux foglight at the rear of the van. This is great for camping at site with electrical power connections and allows the use of 120v appliances in the cabin.
I've been using a Waeco Coolfreeze 35 quart refrigerator. This refrigerator is super efficient and runs for days off the auxiliary battery. I've attached a custom harness/hold down and anti-theft cable lock. I'm not inclined to sell this $$$ refrigerator as I can use it with my other Eurovan, but will include it with a full price offer only.
The van runs like new. The ONLY reason I am selling is because I just purchased a Weekender EV with poptop. I have two kids and we had been tent camping with this van. In fact, the bed has never been slept in. The van has almost all highway miles as we typically drove it on weekends to camp out of state.
The alternator was recently rebuilt and the van has a brand new starting battery.
Bonus items included with this sale include a full set of curtains that have never been used, a TomTom Go navigation device with power cord, and a radar detector (just because I have extras and don't need these). More photos can be sent via email.
The van is located 5 minutes from historic downtown Charleston, SC and surrounding beaches. Take a nice vacation and come get the van of your dreams.

Volkswagen Group names Paefgen head of classics program
Tue, 04 Oct 2011You may remember the name Franz-Josef Paefgen. Until recently, the German engineer and executive was head of both Bentley and Bugatti. Before that he was chief executive of Audi, after working for several years at Ford. He technically "retired" earlier this year, but like the cars he helped create, an executive like Paefgen could never really retire. So it should come as little surprise that the Volkswagen Group has named Dr. Paefgen head of its Classic program.
In his new capacity, Paefgen will oversee the historic automobile activities of the entire VW Group, including those of Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Audi, Lamborghini, and of course Bentley and Bugatti. It strikes us as a suitable semi-retirement for the man responsible in no small part for the Bugatti Veyron and Bentley Mulsanne, to name just two, and who was decorated in 2006 by the ACO as the "Spirit of Le Mans" for his contribution to endurance racing. Read the official announcement after the break.
VW Jetta TDI Value Edition drops price of diesel ownership to $21,295*
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Getting a new diesel-powered car just got a bit easier. Volkswagen has announced a new Jetta TDI Value Edition for 2014 that trims over $2,000 off the starting price of a Jetta TDI, making the most affordable diesel-powered car in America even more so. Prices start at $21,295 (*plus $820 for destination) for a Value Edition with a six-speed manual transmission, while a six-speed dual-clutch automatic adds $1,100 to the price. For that money, owners will get 140 horsepower, 236 pound-feet of torque and 42 miles per gallon on the freeway.
Despite the lower price and being down on content versus the previous base Jetta TDI, the Value Edition does come quite well equipped, with standard heated cloth seats, a six-speaker stereo with a Media Device Interface, satellite radio, and one-touch, up-down power windows on all four doors. Customers will be giving up some notable stuff though, including tilt/telescopic steering, Bluetooth streaming audio, power seats and a multi-function steering wheel.
Still, if you're aching to get your hands on a new TDI, this is now the most affordable way to do it. We suspect having the lower MSRP will help the German manufacturer make even further diesel-powered inroads here in the States, a land where they cleared their decks of over 100,000 TDI models in 2013.
EU formally questions French government assistance of Peugeot's finance arm
Fri, 28 Dec 2012Recently, the finance arm of PSA/Peugeot-Citroën was in such debt trouble that it was pricing itself out of the car loan market. The rates it was paying to service its debt, which was rated one step above junk, were so high that it was forced to charge car-buying customers higher rates than they could find elsewhere. This was adding to Peugeot's already impressive woes by sending revenue out the door to competitors.
Two months ago a deal was worked out with the French government whereby the state would provide 7 billion euro ($9 billion USD) in bonds to guarantee the finance arm's loans. The French government could nominate someone to join the Peugeot board, Peugeot would guarantee more French jobs, and on top of that deal, other banks would provide non-guaranteed loans. The government would take no equity stake in the car company.
Although not yet finalized, the arrangement is meant to create some breathing room for Peugeot Finance to lower its interest rates for customers, and a government-nominated board member, Louis Gallois, was recently named to Peugeot's supervisory board. The arrangement was also openly questioned by at least three competitors: Ford, Renault - which is 15-percent owned by the French government after it received state aid - and the German state of Lower Saxony, itself a 15-percent shareholder in Volkswagen.
