While shopping for a VW bus I found a Midget trade on the CT craigslist site. http://newyork.craigslist.org/fct/car/296764862.html I am looking at 2 1978 VW Buses which both are in non running condi

Please remember that the bus was one of the most unsafe vehicles ever built! Regards, Bill

Not true! While the "split window buses" were really NOT recommended by the manufacturer for traveling at highway speeds, the "bay window" models featured MUCH better suspension geometry and were a

My wife was driving our young son in our '77 porche-powered ;-) VW Transporter Type II just outside of Woodstock NY back in the late '70s. Young kid runs a stop sign and broadsides our bus, throwing

I'm not at all surprised. Those Type 2s ("buses") are rated at slightly more than a 1 ton load capacity; depending on what equipment it carries (seats, camper or cargo van). They really are built sto

I jes' gotta say this: After owning and loving a '72 and a '77 VW bus, we bought an 81 Vanagon. I have NEVER HATED a vehicle more. The build quality wasn't. Gawd, in less than 30k miles the air flow

My only experience with a VW van was back in 1972. I bought a 67 split window with a camper conversion in it for $700. A bed, a sink and a refer! Well, all that comfort came at a cost. That bus did n

Sorry to hear of your negative experience. However, your experience is NOT typical, or normal for the Vanagon. I mean, the Vanagon (like any other mass produced automobile) is not entirely without fa

Yeah, the split-window Type 2s were never designed, nor intended for highway use. Period. They were designed to be strong, reliable, hard-working utility vehicles for delivering people and "stuff" ar

First, they're VeeDubs. I think they are good cars, in general. The advertising on TV is a hoot, too. Too bad they don't sell the nice little diesels here.

My son is a VW man, anything after 2000 is pure garbage. His wife bought an 01, she now has a 99 as the 01 fell apart the same day the last payment was mailed in. Switches break, interior panels fall

My wife has an 03 Pissant wagon. It's falling apart. Started about 4 days after she brought it home. I do like to drive it though. Especially in the snow...it's a tank. Geoff Branch -- Original Messa

Something about the new CA emission laws, being "adopted" by the rest of the states. Surprisingly, VW decided they didn't sell enough of them here to make it worthwhile to adapt the TDI unit to the n

That's interesting. I'd never heard of any major issues. I'll have to make some inquiries. I HAVE been disappointed in VW for doing away with the 10 year/100,000 mi power train warranty. My '98 Golf
