This is a 1971 VW Volkswagen Early Bay Window Bus with a paint scheme to resemble the Hurley Bus from the hit TV sow "LOST". It is in running and driving condition and can be enjoyed immediately.

Mechanical - It has a 1600 CC dual port engine with a stock 4 speed manual transmission. The bus starts right up as it should and drives down the road. All of the gears work (1-4) as well as reverse. The brakes stop the bus as they should but the E-brake will not engage. The front has been lowered about 2-3 inches and the rear has been lowered 1 index down from stock. The odometer reads 50976 but i am not sure if it has turned over, or how many times since it is a 5 digit odo.

Exterior - Body has some dings and dents and there is some signs that bus was once converted to a camper style bus and then converted back. Currently the bus has been painted and schemed to look like the Hurley Bus from LOST. All of the glass is there but has signs of wear and pitting. Wheels are stock steel wheels with chrome VW center caps. The bus does not have any bumpers on it.

Interior - The front seats are both in good condition and look like they have been recently reupholstered, there is no middle seat and the rear seat is the Z-Bed type seat that folds down into a bed. The rubber weatherstripping is in tact but a bit dry and may have some cracking. Tan Berber carpeting has been added to the passenger area and on top of the dash to make it nice and cozy inside. There is a CD player but it goes on the fritz when you try to use it and several of the speakers are missing. The dash and cluster have some minor cracks in it but is in overall decent condition considering the age.

Volkswagen throws a Polo-palooza with four new or upgraded models

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Volkswagen unveiled a parade of new and upgraded Polo models at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, including the Polo TSI BlueMotion, Polo TDI BlueMotion, Polo BlueGT and CrossPolo (pictured above). While they will likely never make an appearance this side of the pond, it is fun to see what European subcompact drivers will be driving later this year.
The new BlueMotion models represent the most efficient petrol and diesel options in their class, according to VW. The BlueMotion TDI offers just 73 horsepower from its diesel engine but gives the equivalent of 76 miles per gallon (US) in the EU test. The BlueMotion TSI brings a little more power with its 88-hp petrol engine and has a combined rating of 57 mpg (US) in the EU cycle.
The Polo BlueGT provides a balance of performance and economy, and for the 2014 model, it gains a 9-horsepower boost to its 1.4-liter turbocharged to give drivers 147 hp at the press of the accelerator. This year's car also has an optional Sport Select suspension with electronically controlled dampers to improve handling a bit. It's still fitted with active cylinder management to use as little gas as possible when cruising.

UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.
Scroll down to watch Auto Express' top five commercial in order and to check out a press release, then let us know some of your favorite car commercials in Comments.

Skoda unveils Volkswagen Up!-based Citigo

Tue, 27 Sep 2011

This is the all-new Skoda Citigo, and if you're thinking that it looks rather familiar, that's because its Volkswagen-badged kin recently debuted at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. That's right, the long-rumored Skoda version of Volkswagen's new Up! city car has finally arrived.
Buyers will have a choice of two 1.0-liter three-cylinder engines - one with 59 horsepower, the other with a 74 hp and a blistering 106 mph top speed - both mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Powerful they are not, but these three-bangers should prove to be extremely efficient, with Skoda quoting fuel economy numbers of 62.8 and 60.1 miles per gallon, respectively (on the European cycle).
Being a Skoda, the Citigo will go on sale in its home market of the Czech Republic this fall, with the rest of Europe getting the car next summer. Follow the jump for Skoda's official release.
