Rocklin, California, United States
One life to live and so it is your time to enjoy it- Vw Camper will give you the freedom to travel and enjoy life. I park it on the beach and I have a ocean front view house. 1980 Vw Vanagon Westfalia, 4cyl Air-cooled with around 30,000 rebuilt rebuilt, Sliding door, safety features, pop-top tent, sleeps 4, This is like a swiss army knife. Camper interior Has table for candle light dinners, fridge that runs on propane gas, 12volt and plug it 110v, Sink with a clear water tank, lots of storage for all you needs, Bottom seat can be a couch and it turns in to a bed. Roof pops up so u can stand up with no problem. I will do my best to Describe this bus- Just changed oil, battery, fuel, fuel pump etc and drove it camping to San Francisco. Bus motor does not overheat and it drove like a dream. See Pics from 1-19-2014 trip photos. We did over 400 miles in the bus and got great gas millage compare to a rv. The bus does need tlc and a full tune up just to have it service before I would take across the country since it sat for over a year. This is a 34+yeard old Vw bus that will need tlc just like any other one and it is Sold as-is and the buyer is responsible for transport and smog etc..The Bus is 34+ years is a clean bus to what is out their unless you pay over 25k. Once you work all the little kinks out of it, I honestly thinks it will be a dreams bus. If u want a fully restored bus and want to pay 40k this one is not for you. If you want a nice bus that you will fall in love and use it everyday then this one is for you. It is part of my seniors dad collection and he loved the bus but has not driven it for a year. Clear Ca title and reg is on non-opp starting 2-2014. Please feel free to come by and drive the bus or call me at 916-969-0334 Paul. It is in Loomis, Ca by Sacramento. Feel free to ask any questions?? Buyer must pay 500 dollar deposit within 24 hours of end of Auction via Paypal. The Rest must be paid in full with in 5 days via Cash, Bank transfer. I have sold many cars to Europe and had always happy customers. These buses are only going to go higher in value bcs u can take them on a trip and is a whole different trip then a gas drinking rv. Tom Hanks the actor bought one recently, a camper too.No Reserve auction-I see these online for 10,000 plus all the time. GREAT THINGS ABOUT THE BUS- 1-Westfalia camper-Frig,sink,cabinets,beds-etc Nice and usable see pics, top bunk is white and like new. 2-1980 Vw Vanagon Motor rebuilt and around 30k on it, Strong not like those early bus that could no go 60 mph, This bus cruises at 70mph with no problem. 3-Nice color-original Vanilla yellow but now a little brither yellow. 4-Manual-4 speed-Easy to drive and very realiable. Great Trans. 5-Good glass and interior. Passanger seat swivels for more seating space. 6-New fuel pump, battery, new hoses, Many new parts. 7-Starts every time and it has new fuel and pump etc. The Bad- 1- Tent is torn but I found one for as little as 149-new or fix this one.or fix this one. 2-1980 Nice Cond but not perfect has some dings in and out etc.. Rear cushion works but it is thiner then original but very usable. 3-Speedo just broke at 189k. Missing Cd radio face cover. 4-Paint looks great from distance but upclose you can see that at sometime it was painted cheaply, It does has some minor surface rurs and dings old owner prior to us had it painted, but the little rust is surface only. 5-Bus should have a full tune up so it can travel anywhere, tires have some cracks and Brakes should have new pads. 6-Key-opens front doors but rear and side door is missing, but doors all doors close and open with no problems 7-Camper Kitchen Stove works etc but everything needs to be cleaned due to it sitting a year. Water tank needs to be cleaned too. Propane tank needs a new knob because it does leek propane from the tank, easy fix for a part from a rv/camping store. Common gasket goes bad. Quated it is a $ 10 part and look easy to install. Well I did my best but please realize that a vehicle can have any problem or they can run for ever. Please don't bid on this item unless you plan to buy it. It takes lots of time and money to list a item. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTION????

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]
Fri, 18 Dec 2009Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...
Volkswagen Tiguan tunes up for Frankfurt show
Fri, Jun 12 2015Volkswagen is in the phase of testing where it's simply beating the crap out of the next-generation Tiguan. The German manufacturer is conducting high-altitude towing tests in the Alps of mules wearing the production-ready body of its second-gen compact CUV. This is the first time we've seen the Tiguan in its production body, and despite the ample camouflage, the resemblance to not only the Passat sedan, but the Cross Coupe GTE and CrossBlue concepts, is clear. That's particularly true based on what we can see of the new Tiguan's grille and headlight treatment. In back, the Tiguan will adopt a more sporting roofline, particularly in the aggressive rake of the D-pillar. It's significantly different than the current car, and frankly, that's no bad thing. Expect the usual array of gas and diesel four cylinders with both front- and all-wheel drive on offer. On the high end, meanwhile, our spies claim a 300-horsepower R model could eventually be added to the range. Aside from its new look, future variants could see the crossover spawn both a long-wheelbase version and a coupe-like model. That said, we're wondering how a long-wheelbase Tiguan would fit into the VW range alongside the long-rumored, American-built, three-rower. According to our spies, though, neither one of those vehicles would arrive until well after the vehicle shown above debuts. As for when we can expect to see the second-gen Tiguan, our spies point to September's Frankfurt Motor Show. Be sure to check back then.
Volkswagen Motorsport cranks out Golf touring car
Fri, Jul 10 2015Just when you thought Volkswagen had done all the hot Golfs we could handle, its motorsports division has come out with an even hotter one. This racing version is built to compete in the Touringcar Racer International Series (TCR) across Europe and Asia, and certainly looks the part. Based on the production Golf hatchback we all know, the TCR competition version promises to be to circuit-based touring car racing what the Polo R WRC is to the rally stage. And that little pocket rocket has been positively dominating the World Rally Championship. Developed in conjunction with Seat's racing department and Liqui Moly Team Engstler, the Golf touring car packs the 2.0-liter turbo four from the Golf R. Only instead of 292 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque in the production version, it's been tuned to channel 330 hp and 302 lb-ft to the front wheels (instead of all four) through a six-speed dual-clutch transmission. It rides on 18-inch alloys fitted to a track widened by nearly a foot and a half, along with a competition-spec aero kit to keep it glued to the tarmac and a stripped-out cockpit. Though the 2015 TCR series is already under way, a pair of these racing Golfs will be entered in the upcoming round at the Red Bull Ring in Austria, before the series heads off to Singapore (in support of the F1 grand prix there) and Thailand ahead of the final round in Macau. If everything goes well, customer teams will be able to pick these up and enter them in next year's championship. Volkswagen develops new Golf for the racetrack - Concept car for customer racing, in line with new TCR regulations - Production-based touring car with 330 hp, front-wheel drive and six-speed DSG gearbox - First competitive test this weekend in Spielberg (A) Wolfsburg (09 July 2015). A new Golf for the racetrack: Volkswagen Motorsport is developing its first racing car based on the seventh generation Golf. The production-based, 330-hp concept car is assembled in accordance with TCR regulations and is intended to help Volkswagen evaluate a potential customer racing programme from the 2016 season onwards. In order to accelerate the development of the car, the new Golf will be tested under competitive conditions between now and the end of the season: as cooperation partner, the Liqui Moly Team Engstler will run two cars at the eighth round of the Touringcar Racer International Series (TCR) at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg (A).
