1968 Volkswagen Bus Camper Type 2 Westfalia This is a very original,
very clean, very complete 1968 Volkswagen Type 2 Westfalia, it is in very good condition
and needs very little that we are aware of. It is an unrestored Pacific Northwest Survivor Very nice and featuring
all of its original camping gear, these are tough to find in this great of condition. It really does hearken
back to a simpler time and is an absolute blast to cruise around in. The paint appears shiny
and smooth with no large imperfections. The Orange main body paint is fresh and looks great. The interior looks to be
original and is in very good condition, no rips, tears or stains in the upholstery. It appears not to have any water leaks or damage from being outside too much. It also doesnt have any bad smells or seem to have been smoked in. The Pop-Top functions
great and the original upper cot is intact and functional. There is some
tearing in the canvas, as well as some stains, this is one of the few items I
would probably replace. The motor runs great, does
not smoke, starts well hot or cold, although it does leave a few drips of oil
on the ground as these usually do. It was rebuilt 36k miles ago, so I am sure it just needs some gaskets to seal it up. The tires are like new,
and the suspension is much improved over stock with large sway bars and quality
shocks. The suspension upgrades really make this bus drive much better than most. All bus's should have these upgrades, but they are expensive. The motor is a 1600cc single port with a Dual Weber ICT kit. Plus other upgrades like larger oil sump and ignition upgrades. The transmission shifts
as it great with a Scat shifter, linkage is tight and syncros are good. The
transmission was rebuilt by German Transaxle of America and features a 4.12
final drive. There is very little
rust to be found on this vehicle; I have included a picture of the right front
corner that has a small amount of rust present. This would be an easy repair, or not to worry about. This bus it appears to
have been garage kept and very, very well taken care of over the years. If you are in the market
for one of these charming old rigs, look no further, this is a great example.

Porsche CEO Oliver Blume will be installed as head of the VW brand
Wed, Jun 3 2020Volkswagen Chief Executive Herbert Diess is planning to promote Porsche CEO Oliver Blume to take over as the head of the VW brand, according to a report from Auto Motor und Sport. Citing company sources, the German site said Bernhard Maier, who currently sits at the head of VW's Skoda brand, will lead Porsche in Blume's place. A shuffle at VW isn't surprising. The last thing Volkswagen needs as it transitions away from its long-running "clean diesel" TDI fiasco and into a clean electric ID future is negative press surrounding its burgeoning electrified lineup. Unfortunately, the ID.3 launch has been marred by software issues, with Manager magazine citing company engineers saying "the basic architecture was developed too hastily." Because of that underlying issue, various modules "often do not understand each other" and suffer dropouts. The brand-new eighth-generation Golf launch was also troubled and pushed back due to software problems. And more recently, Volkswagen was forced to pull an advertisement after admitting it was racist and insulting. That marketing misstep, according to the report, will lead to the firing of Chief Marketing Officer Jochen Sengpiehl. Related Video:
Porsche tops JD Power APEAL study for 12th time
Wed, Jul 27 2016JD Power's 2016 Automotive Performance, Execution, and Layout (APEAL) study hasn't changed much this time around with Porsche coming in at No.1 for the 12th consecutive year, while BMW was close behind in second. Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz tied for third with Land Rover, Lexus, and Lincoln tied for No.5. The APEAL Study, according to JD Power, measures owners' level of excitement and emotional attachment across 77 parameters. Brands and cars are rated on a 1,000-point scale. The study found that new cars with modern safety features including low speed collision avoidance and blind spot monitoring have higher APEAL scores than vehicles without the features. The overall industry score increased from 798 to 801, which JD Power claims was helped by the launch of a variety of new vehicles. This year, 22 out of 30 new or redesigned cars received a higher score than the vehicle's respective segment average. Porsche is once again at the top of the list as the automaker's score increased by three points to 877. BMW outscored Jaguar to take second place with a score of 859, while the British automaker dropped three points from last year with 852 points. Volkswagen overtook Mini to become the top-ranked non-premium brand with 809 points, while the latter automaker trailed behind by one point. At the end of the scale, Smart came in at the very bottom for the second year in a row with a score of 745 points, which represents an increase of 62 points over last year. Fiat's score increased by six points to 755, but still confined the automaker to second-to-worst place for a consecutive year. Mitsubishi's score increased to 770, up from 755, to become the fourth-worst brand, while Jeep fell to third-worst with a decrease in seven points to 756. General Motors received six segment-level awards, followed by Hyundai with five, and BMW and VW earning four apiece. Surprise segment victories include the Chevrolet Camaro, which outscored the Dodge Challenger, and the Lexus RC which ranked above the BMW 4 and 3 Series.
