2001 VW Eurovan Pop Top
« on: September 07, 2017, 04:20:01 pm »
For Sale: 2001 Volkswagen Eurovan MV Pop Top Westfalia $16,900
This is a great Eurovan. It is a 2001 with the powerful VR6 engine, front wheel drive of course, so it is great in the snow, but still gets good fuel economy for a van. The automatic transmissions are the achilles heel of these vans – if it hasn't been replaced, it will fail in the future (to the tune of about $4000). This one has JUST been replaced with an upgraded and rebuilt unit, so you never have to worry about it again. It also comes with a binder full of receipts for service work. It has also just had an oil and filter change, air filter and climate filter replaced, so it is super ready to hit the road and travel, camp or commute!
Eurovans are wonderful vehicles – a minivan with lots of interior/cargo space, and with the pop top and fold down rear bed, it is an instant camper that you can drive every day in downtown traffic because it is small. This setup has two front seats with a 3 person rear seat that folds down into a queen-sized bed. You can also add two rear facing jump seats – the mounts are on the front seats and under the flooring – I can include two jump seats for full price offer. The cargo area carpet has been upgraded to heavy duty vinyl flooring that is super easy to clean and holds up better than any carpet.
Tires are good, it drives very well, shifts are firm, brakes are good, shocks are good – its ready to go. There are some scratches and knicks in the paint, but it's 16 years old, and you have to expect some wear. This one started life as an MV so it has rear Air Conditioning (which the Westy's did not have), and then got a Westfalia pop top added on later, so it's the best of both worlds.
People advertise these for $25-$30k and people buy them!! This is your chance to get a super solid one with a new transmission for a totally fair price.
