1986 Volkswagen Factory Westfalia Camper Vanagon on 2040-cars

Year:1986 Mileage:91192
Location:

Medford, Oregon, United States

Medford, Oregon, United States

 We purchased this Vanagon in the year 2002 with 22,000 original miles on it. We have traveled Mexico, beaches of California, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, San Juan Islands and Canada--All road miles were trouble free and very enjoyable and memorable. Our age (60's) has required us to step up to a larger motorhome with more creature comforts to continue our extended camping adventures.

Tires have less than 12,000 miles and have been rotated properly. Front brakes approximately 70%. Oil has been changed religiously on time with Castrol GTX.

We installed a Pioneer AM/FM Super Tuner CD player. 

Propane tank fill valve updated.

Locking gas cap.

On 3-31-2013: Air-Conditioner was recharged and serviced, all 3 drive belts replaced with Gates Drive Belts. Along with these receipts a vehicle inspection sheet was complete at the same time and will be provided along with the factory sticker invoice and original dealer Buyer's Invoice, original Volkswagen Owners Manual, original Factory Camper Owners manual, original Volkswagen Gasoline Engine Maintenance Manual, the 1986 USA models Volkswagen Warranty, Dometic Refrigerator Model  RM 182B Van Fridge manual, Range Counter Unit Type 113.1 manual,  Dometic Factory Authorized Service Centers for Refrigerators, Generators and Air Conditioners and limited warranty. We have all the receipts from prior owner for parts and repairs, plus we have all the receipts for parts and maintenance that we have done.

For all practical purposes, this camper has been trouble free and a joy to travel in and we hope the new owner will have as much enjoyment we have had over the last 12 years.

The Vanagen was purchased in 2002 with 22,000 original miles.  At 40,000 miles the speedometer began to act up. We had Ray's Speedometer in Grants Pass repair it. it went another 28,000 miles putting it at 68,000 miles. At that time the speedmeter began acting up again, so we purchased a new speedometer from Go Westy in Los Osos, California (which is the best source for Volkswagen parts on the west Coast). We will include a 2006 Go Westy Catalog.

$1.4B hedge fund suit against Porsche dismissed

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Investors have canvassed courts in Europe and the US to repeatedly sue Porsche over its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008 (see here, and here and here), and they have repeatedly failed to win any cases. You can add another big loss to the tally, with Bloomberg reporting that the Stuttgart Regional Court has dismissed a 1.4-billion euro ($1.95B US) lawsuit, the decision explained by the court's assertion that the investors would have lost on their short bets even if Porsche hadn't misled them.
Examining the hedge funds' motives for stock purchases and the bets that VW share prices would fall, judge Carola Wittig said that the funds didn't base their decisions on the key bits of "misinformation," and instead were participating simply in "highly speculative and naked short selling," only to get caught out.
With other cases still pending, the continued streak of victories bodes well for Porsche's courtroom fortunes, since judges will expect new information to consider overturning precedent. If there is any new info, it could come from the potential criminal cases still outstanding against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and CFO Holger Härter, who were both indicted on charges of market manipulation.

Volkswagen Golf voted 2013 European Car of the Year

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf just went on sale in Europe, but it is already off to a promising start. Announced as the Geneva Motor Show kicked off, the newest Golf was named European Car of the Year for 2013 in dominating style over cars like the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT86 twins, Volvo V40, Ford B-Max and Mercedes-Benz A-Class.
According to Automotive News Europe, the MkVII Golf won handily over its rivals with a total of 414 votes. The Subaru BRZ and Toyota GT86 received 202 votes finishing in a distant second, while the Volvo V40 (189 votes), Ford B-Max (148 votes) and Mercedes-Benz A-Class (138 votes) round out the top five. The new Golf marks the third Volkswagen product to receive the prestigious award with previous cars including the MkIII Golf and the most recent iteration of the Polo.

2014 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible gets the R-Line treatment

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Volkswagen just launched the topless Beetle Convertible at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, but we're already seeing the next step forward in the topless Bug range with this, the R-Line. We'll admit, this treatment falls under the "all show and no go" category, but it's still a pretty potent little cutie.
The R-Line starts with a standard Beetle Turbo Convertible but adds unique 19-inch aluminum wheels on lower-profile tires, LED daytime running lamps and Xenon headlamps. Naturally, there are R-Line badges aplenty both on the interior and exterior, and we must say, the whole package looks pretty darn snazzy.
Pricing has yet to be announced, but when it goes on sale later this year, the hotter convertible will join Volkswagen's growing R-Line portfolio that now includes the CC, Beetle hatch, Tiguan and Touareg.
