The Volkswagen Kombi, Vanagon, and Microbus are all names by which Volkswagen’s iconic Transporter or people carrier is known. The Type 2 generation was made between 1979 and 2002, and is from where this particular 106,000-mile 1981 Volkswagen Vanagon hails. Coming to you from San Pablo, California, this Westfalia Camper-trim vehicle is made up as a fully equipped camper, providing you with an easy and convenient way to travel great distances without needing to worry about accommodation. After all, when you carry your home with you, you don’t need to worry about finding a bed for the night. So, if you’re the outdoorsy sort who doesn’t dabble in off-roading, check out this vehicle for your collection.
The straight white paintwork adorning this 1981 Volkswagen Vanagon really brings out its timeless lines and instantly recognizable shape. Everyone will know what it is, even if they don’t always know it’s name. One distinctive feature are the simple yet attractive silver alloy wheels, adding a touch of unique identity to this vehicle. The interior is where the magic lies. Here, you’ll find your typical driving compartment up front, with two new beige front seats. There’s a Blaupunkt radio in the dashboard, connected to four speakers scattered around the interior. Behind the driver’s cabin is a living area. Here, you can cook a proper multi-course meal, thanks to the presence of a fridge, a sink, and a stovetop with a new propane tank. There are built-in cabinets for optimal storage. When it’s time to sleep, there’s a bed section in the rear, while a new tent is included for when you’d like to really enjoy the great outdoors. You’ve got everything you need here, save for a toilet, but that’s something that can be managed.
Under the floor of the rear compartment lies the 2.0-liter, air-cooled flat-four that purrs happily when on the move. The engine has received a new catalytic converter and a new fuel pump. We’re also told that there’s a new master cylinder in place. Power is directed to the van’s rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission. Yes, it’s no speed freak, but it can easily hold its own on the highway. Plus, when you’re packed with cutlery and crockery, do you really want to go fast?

Do you love camping, but prefer to take your home with you? Yes, we know that sounds like a turtle but the automotive equivalent is a camper. You can find campers that can be towed behind your regular vehicle, as well as those which can be driven in their own right. They can even stretch into the length and width of a full-grown bus, and offer you a five-star hotel-esque experience (minus the staff, unless you’ve got those as well). But what if you want something a bit more compact? Something easy to drive and park, something that won’t break the bank, something that won’t be a pain to turn around in case you need to? In that case, this 1989 Volkswagen Vanagon Camper from Lakewood is an ideal candidate. Based on the hugely popular Volkswagen T2 Transporter series, it’s no surprise that it makes for an excellent camper. You’ve got plenty of conveniences and features that you wouldn’t expect to fit in a vehicle of this size. Plus, its 215,255 miles show that it’s quite an enjoyable thing to behold! If you find the mileage daunting, don’t. These vehicles are built to last decades, and they’re superbly easy to repair and maintain too – you’ll be amazed at how little is taken from your wallet!
Volkswagen’s popular Type 2 microbus is the third generation of the Volkswagen Transporter series. Running between 1979 and 2002, it marked the final era of the rear-engined brigade of this type from Volkswagen.

Today, we have a Carat Trim Package-equipped 1989 Volkswagen Vanagon Carat for sale from Tillamook, Oregon. This water-cooled machine comes with a low 27,332 miles on the clock and has received a re-upholstered interior to make it feel even better to ride in. Interested? Call or DM us soon, and we can have the keys placed in your hand within a jiffy!

Now here’s a symbol of the Sixties in all its Baby Blue glory! This 1972 Volkswagen Kombi comes to you from Winston-Salem, North Carolina with a mere 1,473 miles on the clock. That super-low mileage plus the overall pristine outlook of the vehicle leads us to believe that it may have received a restoration. Because why not? After all, such vehicles are historically significant symbols of freedom and peace. They’ve been used to spread love and hope all over the world. And even if you aren’t into that movement, what better and simpler way to digitally detox your family than to pack them into this thing and take a drive on a weekend? Because it’s as analog as things get.
Purists best remember the Volkswagen Transporter as the Type 2 microbus or kombi. But Volkswagen has made several generations since then. The T4 or fourth generation was produced between 1995 and 2004, and of course, camper variants were popular too. That’s what we have here for grabs in Laguna Beach, California, a 2003 Volkswagen Transporter T4 EuroVan with 188,000 miles on the clock. This fine camper van comes with a pop-up top, the owner’s manual and a smooth six-cylinder engine driving its rear wheels. So if you’re a fan of road trips where you take your house with you, this van is the ideal companion.
The car that moved the world for over sixty years, the original Volkswagen Beetle was made between 1938 and 2003! In that period, over 21 million were sold, and today, we have one fine example up for grabs. This 1967 Volkswagen Beetle is said to be 100% original, with no rust, and in excellent condition! That’s not very common to find, and indicates that this Nolensville-based car was cared for very well. It’s also been enjoyed, as the mileage of just over 100,000 will testify. Whether you’re looking for your first classic car, or want to make your collection larger, a Beetle is always a fine choice. In fact, there are some petrolheads who have more than one in their custody! Who’d ever have thought that such a simple and everyday family car would become so historically impactful!
The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is often used for custom camper vans, cargo delivery, or luxury shuttle services. The highly versatile nature and ample space of the Sprinter make it a favorite choice for the said projects. Its heavy-duty design and body-on-frame construction make it an excellent setup for overlanding. What we have here is a 2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 that has been converted into a custom passenger and camper-style layout. It prioritizes privacy and passenger comfort with multiple upgrades that give you the best experience. This example has done 32000 miles so far. Located in San Antonio, Texas, it is available for sale with exterior armor, suspension upgrades, and a custom interior seating conversion.

There are rare moments in automotive history when an entire brand speaks with one unified voice. For Volkswagen in the 1970s, that voice carried a message of peace, love, and freedom—values that came to define the era just as much as the cars themselves. From the Beetle to the Bus, VW’s lineup wasn’t just transportation; it was a rolling symbol of optimism and counterculture spirit. Fast forward to today, and that ethos lives on in this 1971 Volkswagen Type 2 Westfalia Van. With a reported 5,480 miles on the clock, this beautifully preserved German classic isn’t simply a vehicle—it’s a time capsule. Its cheerful presence invites you to shut down the weekday grind and embrace a slower, more meaningful pace of life. Whether it’s a long drive along coastal highways or a weekend escape under the stars, this Transporter is a reminder that journeys aren’t just about reaching destinations—they’re about enjoying the ride, in true Volkswagen fashion.
