2001 Volkswagen Eurovan MV Weekender. Original owner. Clear title. No smoking or kids. 86131 miles as of May 15, 2024. VIN WV2NB47011H105521. Kept in garage since purchased in 2001. It is red with gray cloth interior.
201HP VR6 2.8L Vehicle passed Illinois emission test September 2023. Premium gas always used.
$25000.00 or make reasonable offer. I’m guessing that if you are interested, you know something about this model VW, or you can Google.
I have all manuals and service receipts. I even have the original window sticker!
The van is in great shape considering its age and all the wonderful adventures we’ve had. We hope someone will enjoy it as much as we have and make their own great memories.
Low mileage as noted above. It was mostly highway driven.
I also have a web photo gallery with 43 photos that I will send link if requested.
All mechanical items work. Pop top operates smoothly and there are no holes, tears or rotting of pop top canvas. The Fiberglass roof is in excellent condition. Van was hand waxed (by me) once yearly and more frequently when I was younger and good looking.
Exterior
Paint is in great shape. There are a few paint nicks here and there from road debris that I touched up just to protect from rust. Many years ago, a small pebble hit and made a very small chip on the windshield which was repaired by SafeLite. It has stayed the same forever. This is all shown in the photos that I posted.
Rust: there are two places that I have had to keep up with. They are both located by the wheel well where the door closes on both the driver and passenger sides: see posted photos. It is NOT rusted through and to this day am not sure why this is happening. I was keeping up with it by sanding/brushing, re-priming, and painting. I have a spray cans of custom paint and clearcoat that I’m including.
There are a few very minor small dents on body, mostly from bumping into something like a cooler or just stuff. Rear windshield wiper works fine. Radio antennae in good shape. Front wipers good.
Engine: In great shape, coolant changed recently. Had a small leak from a coolant hose, which along with thermostat was replaced in May 2022. Runs smoothly. Transmission fluid changed at 40k and 80k.
The main battery was replaced May 2024.
Tires are about two years old. Kumho Crugen HT51 215 65 R16 102T.
The main muffler was replaced May 2012.I have paper work.
Both power mirrors work fine.
All service was done by VW dealer (Autobarn in Mt Prospect, IL where I bought van) up until a few years ago when I started going to a recommended shop in my area (Import Service Center in Glenview, IL). Oil and filter changes done at 6-month intervals. Oil and filter were just changed March 27, 2024
Other service performed includes:
VW Recall to replace engine coils February 2004
Engine coolant temperature sender replace February 2009
Front brakes replaced August 2009
Brake Service April 2017
Engine tensioner and belt replace March 2018
Tie Rod replacement March 2018
80K service April 2019
I installed a 2” receiver and 7 way plug a few years ago to tow a small travel trailer. I am also including a Prodigy Brake controller.
Interior
Aside from some minor wear and tear, the interior is in great shape. All gauges work. Ashtray clean, lighter has never been used. AM/FM Radio works. If you happen to have cassettes lying around, you are in luck! Radio has cassette player. Front has always had carpet protectors. The ones in there now are a few years old. I have the original under seat cooler, which was stored in my basem*nt for the last 20 years. The cargo area carpet (in front of bench seat) has a few stains, but has always been either vacuumed or brushed out. None of the seats or upholstery has any rips or tears. I have the original snap-in bug screen. I also have the original snap-in cloth window blind. The sliding door works fine.
All plastic parts in good shape including dash, steering wheel, etc. Heat and air conditioner work, as well as the front heated front seats.
Back seat slides and folds easily. Tracks have been well maintained. The auxiliary battery under the driver’s seat is the original battery, 23 years old, but still powers the two interior fluorescent lights.
Please feel free to get in touch with any questions. Or if you’d like to talk, send me your phone number. I’m going to miss this camper.
