1993 Volkswagen Eurovan Weekender Camper on 2040-cars
Emerson, New Jersey, United States
1993 Eurovan weekender package for sale. Please read the entire description for this
sale:
This vehicle has a been a wonderful VW for me. I've had it 5 years, had some great trips with my family, great concerts/tailgating. I am selling as I now have 5 VW’s in my driveway, 2 Vespas, and a London double decker bus in mid restoration. My wife and neighbors are 1/2 step away from killing me if something doesn’t go!!! Anyone who has had one of these knows how versatile they are. Seats 7. Sleeps 4. can fit a full 4'x8' sheet of drywall/plywood inside. Great for taking all the kids to sporting events, and i fit just about everything i ever needed from Home Depot into it with no problem!! I am sad to be listing it, but just too many things going on right now in my driveway ! Seats 2 up front, 5 in the rear (3 along bench seat, 2 in
rear facing seats). Rear seat folds
down, slides out, creating another bed. Top
pops up, but no interior camping gear such as a stove/fridge.
I am the 4th owner of this Eurovan and bought it
in 10/2009 with 145k miles (it now has 179k +/- as I’m still using it daily. It was originally an Arizona car, then to VA
in 2005, then to NJ in 2006.
It originally had an
automatic trans which was essentially non-functioning. I decided to take the manual transmission
out of my other eurovan (same year, hardtop, but with a bad body),
and put the manual trans into this camper.
The manual trans had ~150k when we put it in the camper (installing a
new clutch at the time). All work was
performed by RPM in Westwood, NJ in spring 2010.
Anyone who has had one of these knows how problematic the autotrans can be!! The other engine from the donor Eurovan also comes with this Auction. It has ~150k on it. The camper has run beautifully since the transmission
swapover and I use it as my daily driver as well as periodic trips to Virginia
Beach (about a 7 hour trip each way).
The camper is in decent shape but does need some attention,
especially on a couple of rust spots. I
will list out everything I know to be wrong with the van.
-horn is present but doesn’t work
-cruise control doesn't work -driver’s window won’t go up or down. The motor is fine; it’s an electrical issue
somewhere.
-rear speakers are present but unusable and need to be
replaced.
-AC doesn’t work (blows air, but not cold)
-Dashpod temperature gauge and gas gauge work
intermittently. Articles on various VW
user sights state it’s a loose connection and is fairly common and fixable.
-surface rust along vertical body seams on the side of the
camper in the rear.
-surface and rocker rust on passenger side front door (worst
area and perforated)
-surface rust on driver rocker area
-minor defects/broken pieces in trim work (see pictures)
-exhaust has several leaks.
Muffler is only a year old, but area around the catalytic converter has
leaks; not the cat itself though.
-handle to open the cargo door is broken. It functions fine, but the part that you
squeeze with the grip of your fingers is split in two.
-pop top canvas has some tears but can be repaired without
having to completely remove everything (I envisioned simply cutting out the bad
areas and sewing in a screened area, but never got around to it).
-Radio functions perfectly but is the originally cassette
player (hey, at least it’s not 8-track!)
Positive stuff:
-I have all service records since I’ve owned it, and a lot
of records from prior owners
-Tires are Kumho 235/65/16 104H which are rated at 104H (for heavier cars)
and have ~80% tread left on them. 1
extra tire comes with it (same as 4 on the van).
-All screens,curtains, and headrests are on or with the
camper
-Fiamma F45 retractable awning (works beautifully!) -Roof racks (but not for anything super heavy; maybe skis, surboard, or perhaps a canoe) -all cup holders are intact :) -
I encourage potential buyers to come see it, test drive it,
etc… I will also take it to a local shop/dealer of your choice to have them do
an overall inspection of the vehicle (potential buyers and I would have to agree how to handle this).
I will do my best to provide any additional pictures
and/or video requested.
Camper is also listed locally so I reserve the right to end
the auction early if there is a non-ebay buyer.
Camper is a nice vehicle with some issues due to age and wear and tear;
but all issues can be resolved.
I have set a reserve price which I feel is reasonable, in line with market prices MINUS the estimated costs to repair all items I listed as being problematic with the vehicle. I will edit auction to add a "buy it now price" if an acceptable offer is made (otherwise, we just let the auction runs its course) I am available to show/test drive it Mon/Tues/Sat/Sun of this week. I will NOT ship to Nigeria, will not accept checks from Nigeria, won't wire money to Nigeria, and won't deal with folks who's secretary "accidentally" sent me $5,000 too much. I also don't have a lot of patience for buyers who want to ding ebay sellers for differences in opinion on the condition of items being sold. If you want more detail, ask: I will send you as many pictures as I can. I will work with any buyer if there is truly something that I have overlooked, but if its just a buyer with an overinflated sense of entitlement, well, please just move along and save your drama for someone else. Happy bidding. I will do my best to answer questions in a timely fashion. Thank you!

VW to unveil diesel-electric Twin-Up! in Tokyo
Fri, 08 Nov 2013We've received multiple reports that Volkswagen will be bringing a diesel-electric concept to the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show, set to take place later this month. The car, called the Twin-Up!, is based on the Up! city car, with some sources claiming this is a thinly veiled concept that will eventually enter production.
According to Automotive News Europe, the Twin-Up! will reportedly return 214 miles per gallon on the US cycle by combining an 800-cc, two-cylinder diesel and an electric motor. It will also boast plug-in capabilities, and will be able to cover 30 miles on electric power alone.
Autocar has a more complete picture of the Twin-Up!'s powertrain, though, claiming it's a modified version of the hybrid system found in the Volkswagen XL1. The Twin-Up! will get a more potent, 47-horsepower electric motor to the XL1's 27-hp unit, but will retain that car's 47-hp turbodiesel. The battery pack will also grow, from 5.5 kilowatt hours to 8.6 kWh. Both of these increases are necessary due to the increased weight of the Twin-Up! - it's some 900 pounds heavier than an XL1.
Chrysler slows minivan production, hasn't built VW Routan this year
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Chrysler has slowed production of its Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans this week, Automotive News reports. The Windsor, Ontario plant will cut its three shifts from eight hours each to four hours each in an effort "to align production with market demand," a Chrysler spokesperson told AN. Chrysler also builds the closely related Routan minivan for Volkswagen at its Ontario facility, but has not built a single example thus far in 2013.
Sales of Chrysler's minivans fell 15 percent for the first two months of 2013, and a large part of that has to do with the 26-percent drop of the Grand Caravan alone (the T&C was only down by one percent). According to Automotive News data, as of March 1, Chrysler had an unsold inventory of 24,713 Town and Country models and 18,547 Grand Caravans - a 69- and 43-day supply, respectively.
"No sense running full speed now, then have a lot of vehicles sitting around a few months down the line," Chrysler spokeswoman Jodi Tinson told AN. Full production is expected to resume again on March 18.
Skoda unveils Volkswagen Up!-based Citigo
Tue, 27 Sep 2011This 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.
