Volkswagen Eurovan Westfalia Weekender Edition With Pop Top on 2040-cars
Saint Paul, Minnesota, United States
|
Want to live your VW camper van dreams? I did. I have wanted a pop-up camper van since I was 16 years old. I found this one two years ago and bought it in June 2012 from a private seller in Illinois. It was clean, low-mileage and treated like a member of the family. The engine was replaced at approximately 112k miles so while the van itself has 148k miles, the engine is a baby of 36k. I've lived two footloose and camping-filled years in it and am moving on to my next lifelong dream (Vintage Airstream or Scamp renovation!).
The van is in great shape. I've kept it road ready and would drive it anywhere. (In fact, we're probably on a trip right now so there might be a few more miles on it by the time you buy it. It is my every day vehicle that gets used to drive to the train station as well.) It seats 7 and sleeps 4. There's a cooler under the driver's side rear-facing seat, which keeps your snacks and bevvies cool. Plus, it has a factory installed auxilliary battery so you can keep it on without draining your battery. It has an easily removable rear-facing seat on the passenger side, fold-up table and of course, the rear bench folds down into a great, big comfy bed. You'll see photos of all of the interior screens and curtains along with the cooler, etc. The van was in a minor car accident in 2013. Someone pulled out of a lot and into me at a low speed. No frame damage was done and the van was repaired by VW loving experts at a certified auto-body shop. The sliding door was replaced and the passenger side was repainted so it literally looks as good as new. There is a crack in the back gate and a small paint ding on the van. All the curtains are functioning and close up tight for camping privacy. There are extra screens, etc. with the van. The front of the pop top has some canvas repairs to keep it bug free. I replaced the ac at 124k. All new tires at 136k. New battery, tie rods, ball joints and complete alignment at 141k. New muffler at 145k, which I did pretty much just for YOU dear buyer so that it sounds sweet and runs like a top. I also had the interior detailed so it's clean as a whistle. |

VW readying new VR6 with forced induction
Fri, 27 Sep 2013Volkswagen built a stonking, narrow-angle V6 in the 1980s and 1990s that was found in three different generations of the Golf (their performance iterations, obviously), three generations of the Passat, the New Beetle, the Corrado and the Touareg, among other VWs, a spate of Audis, Seats, a Skoda, and even the Porsche Cayenne. It was a sad day when it was announced that it'd be put out to pasture.
Rejoice, though, fans of the venerable VR6, because Volkswagen has a new, modern variant in the works that, according to AutoWeek, features direct injection and can easily be fitted with forced induction. In fact, AW mentions Volkswagen insiders that claim this unit will spawn a production version of the twin-turbo V6 shown on the Design Vision GTI from this year's Wörthersee festival. That unit produced an epic 503 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque.
Don't expect a production unit with that level of power (although it would make a hardy RS4 powerplant), though. In reality, AutoWeek is suspecting anywhere from 340 to 450 horsepower from the new mill. When it arrives at an undisclosed date in the future, it'll likely be found in the Passat and Passat CC as well as the production version of the CrossBlue.
Volkswagen Cross Up! aimed at rugged lifestyle folks, complete with plastic cladding
Wed, 06 Mar 2013If you thought there was nothing wrong with the Volkswagen Up! that a little body cladding wouldn't fix, you're in luck. VW has officially pulled the wraps off the production version of the Cross Up!, and its wheel arches and rocker panels are full of the black plastic cladding you've been yearning for.
In addition to the "particularly rugged design and tough, lifestyle qualities" that the cladding exudes, VeeDub has also seen fit to put its Cross Up! on a new set of 16-inch alloy wheels clad in 185/50-series tires. Inside, there are new kick plates to go along with a dash pad that can be had in red, black or silver.
All that cladding must equal additional off-road readiness, right? Well, sure... just so long as you're fine with the same 75-horsepower three-cylinder engine that all other Up! models also feature, along with a five-speed manual transmission sending power to the front wheels, again, just like all other Up! models. The Cross Up! appears to have a taller ride height than other models, but we haven't been able to find out what - if any - changes have been made.
North American production of foreign marques to jump in 2014
Sun, 23 Dec 2012Wards Auto has released its North American Light Vehicle Production Forecast for 2014, and the report predicts foreign manufacturers will increase production on the continent some 3.9 percent by 2014. If accurate, that should see 123,000 additional cars, trucks and vans produced in North America, swelling the total number of units produced both by domestic and foreign manufacturers to 16.9 million light vehicles from a projected 15.6 million in 2013. Much of the increase can be attributed to the fact that Toyota intends to produce another car at its Blue Springs, MS plant as well as a new Lexus model at its Georgetown, KY facility in a year's time.
Likewise, Volkswagen intends to move production of a currently imported model to its plant in Puebla, Mexico. Daimler, Honda, Nissan and Mazda also plan to build additional models on North American soil for the first time. Around two-thirds of the new North American manufacturing will take place in Mexico, helping the country soak up a full 20 percent of the content's automotive production for the first time.
