1987 Volkswagen Bus/Vanagon Additional Info:

For Sale my 1987 Super rare top of the range 7 seater weekender Vanagon GL Wolfsburg edition. AKA Carat. These were made before the Carat was re named. Same spec. I have owned many Vanagons and T25’s as they are called in UK where I grew up.

The Wolfsburg edition vans come with the following factory feature:

7 seater

Rear full width bed

Full set of curtains

Pop up table

Front captains seats with arm rests

Rear wiper

Rev counter

Auto transmission

Power steering

Air conditioning

Central locking (could do with a overhaul- kind of works sometimes)

I have invested over $6000 dollars into this rare gem.

All receipts are included along with the factory VW manual.

Brand new front windshield

And front and rear wiper blades

Brand new front clear turn signal lenses.

Brand new front antenna included (not fitted)

17" Alloy wheel rims with new tires.

Things still needed to do that I can recommend include

Fit front orange light bulbs for turn signals

Some light bulbs need changing

One of the 3 rear headrests has a little damage in a corner.

No jack. I used my own trolley jack to fit the Rims.

The AC ducts need re fitting and the AC needs to be checked over.

Seats. Carpet and bed could do with a shampoo clean.

One of the rear seats needs greasing, its stuck in the up position.


I bought this because I know how rare and fully loaded they are. I had my local VW garage go over it and also fit a motor with 125K on it. As the previous owner had removed so many parts off the original motor. So the van has done 233k but the engine only 125k. I bought the engine along with a Syncro of a ex VW Porsche mechanic.

Nu Vintage also fitted a new water temp sensor, water sensor seal, drive belts, heater hoses, new break master cylinder, new wiper switch, installed a new fuel pump, reassembled the rear breaks and more.

So to recap. This is a wonderful solid rare Wolfsburg vanagon with zero rust, new paint and is fully loaded. Great investment for the future.

Any questions please ask. I also have loads more photos tht I have taken that I can send upon your request.


Also advertised elsewhere- i reserve the right to remove at anytime.The VW is located in Denver Colorado at Nu Vintage VW shop who carried out all of the $2500 work. They kindly let me store it there as i am on a DJ tour.They can assist with collection during their office hours. They have my clean title in my name along with the 2 sets of keys and folder with all documents.I have recently moved state to Vegas to pursue my music industry so hence this is for sale. Otherwise i would keep it.Depositof $500 to be paid within 24hours at end of auction.Remainder to be paid within 5 daysafter auction. I can recommend a local shippingcompany in Denver if you wish to have it shippedaround the USA or to UK. I have used Horizon in UKbefore to ship to Dartford uk from Houston Texas.

This rare van will easily sell for more when spring arrives. So grab a bargain. I have all the photos before the amazing paint job. Let me know if you wish to see them. It shows how solid this van is and shows there being NO rust before the paint job was done. Only dings. Its also advertised on the Samba website and the Go Westy site, along with the Denver Craigslist ad and LA Craigslist with more photos.

If you have any further questions and are a fellow VW fan like me then please ask me. Many thanks Lee 7206629440.
