1989 Volkswagen Vanagon Gl Automatic Transmission on 2040-cars
US $3,495.00
Year:1989
Mileage:152500
Location:
Chicago, Illinois, United States

For sale: 1989 VW Vanagon with automatic transmission and 152K miles. Bought with the intent of traveling the country after a 2011 layoff, but took on more work too soon to make the trip a reality and recently inherited another daily driver. The bus drives and handles well, and seats 7 adults (or four when the rear seat is folded down into a full-sized bed). Panoramic windows offer 360° views of the outside world. A great vehicle for hauling kids, band equipment, camping and every other purpose. It is not fast, but it gets 20 MPG, which is unusual for a van. Unique, roomy and kind of futuristic-looking!
The van currently has no known major mechanical problems; there are a couple of small fluid leaks typical of a VW of its age. The brakes and suspension are strong, and I have installed a new battery, tires and gas tank in last 2,000 miles worth approximately $1,600. The body is solid, with some fading on the sides due to the removal of a previous owner's painted-on sign, and rust starting below the rear windows and wheel wells. There are no holes anywhere and the underbody is solid; it does have a small ding on the rear driver's side wheel well and a crack in the left rear bumper housing. It is currently garage-kept. the seating upholstery is a bit faded but clean and free of any rips and tears. There are no cracks or tears in the headliner and dash. |

VW previews retouched 2014 Touareg for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Volkswagen is in New York this week showing off its new Jetta and Golf TDI SportWagen concept. But in less than a week, the German automaker will be off to China for the Beijing Motor Show, where it will showcase the revised Touareg you see here.
A subtle update on the Touareg that's been on the market in its current form for four years now, the facelifted model features reworked styling front and rear, an updated interior and a host of new technologies to keep it current in the highly competitive SUV market. Among those new features are larger bi-xenon headlights, coasting function, Google Maps integration and a post-collision braking system designed to prevent a second crash.
VW will offer the new Touareg with a variety of engines around the world, but in North America it'll carry over the same six-cylinder powertrain options as the outgoing model: a 3.6-liter V6 with 280 horsepower, a 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 with 240 hp (though torque isn't listed, we'd expect around 406 pound-feet, same as last year) and a hybrid that marries a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 to an electric motor that combine to deliver 380 hp.
2014 Volkswagen Beetle GSR is black and yellow, black and yellow
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Way back in 1973, Volkswagen decided it was high time to take the loveable air-cooled Bug racing. No, it wasn't painted in Herbie colors - Volkswagen called its sport-tuned machine the Beetle GSR, "Gelb Schwarzer Renner" or "Yellow Black Racer." Hence, the somewhat shocking paint scheme.
VW is bringing its sporty black and yellow Beetle back for 2014, and you can see live photos of it above. It's got a 210-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine under the hood (that'd be the hood up front, unlike the car's forebear), and a six-speed manual or DSG automatic transmission sends those ponies to the front wheels. Note that this car's output is up 10 horses on other turbo VWs, and the Jetta GLI and Beetle Turbo for 2013. The 0-60 run takes 6.6 seconds, and top speed is limited to 130 miles per hour.
Besides the in-your-face black and yellow paint, the GSR is outfitted with a large rear spoiler and 19-inch wheels shod with 235/40 tires. The bee-like hue carries over inside, with yellow stitching on black leather. Only 3,500 will be produced, each with its own unique plaque. Pricing has not yet been announced, but you're free to read through the press release below all the same.
VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt
Sun, 08 Sep 2013
Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.
