Exterior and Interior
This 1989 Volkswagen Vanagon Carat comes in a nice shade of dark blue, and represents a useful modernization of the curvy Volkswagen T2 that preceded it. That van, with its rounded styling, was a Sixties and Seventies icon, while the T3 variant took over the mantle and brought things firmly into the hip to be square era. Hence, you’ve got crisper and straighter lines, squared-off wheel arches and rectangular headlamps to enjoy. The old-school steel wheels with hubcaps of the T2 have also given way to more modern five-spoke alloy wheels in silver, making for a van that still looks fresh to this day. The re-upholstered interior of this 1989 Volkswagen Vanagon Carat comes in gray, and features seating for seven adults. The seating configuration is very interesting, as you’ve got the first row with the driver and co-driver position. Directly behind these seats is a pair of rear-facing jump seats, while the third row comprises a regular, forward-facing three-person bench. Interesting indeed, and allows five adults to have a nice face-to-face conversation! Furthermore, you’ve got head rests, cargo storage areas, cup holders and even air conditioning with overhead ventilation for second and third row occupants. Meanwhile, the original Volkswagen Design radio with cassette tape player sits proudly in the dashboard as well, and plays through speakers dotted around the cabin. We see that a reverse camera has been retrofitted, to the right-hand side of the original analog gauge cluster that even includes a tachometer!
Engine
This 1989 Volkswagen Vanagon Carat gets its go-factor from a 2.1-liter water-cooled flat four in the tail. The engine uses Bosch Digifant electronic fuel injection. It drives the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission.
Classic motors are charming creatures; they all have their stories to tell, and every drive out is one to remember. There comes a time when a classic machine makes its way to the interwebs, and you can't help but drive it home. This 1982 Volkswagen Vanagon Camper Westfalia is that machine. With a reported 134,913 miles on its clock, and a whole lot more character, this classic German beauty motivates you to travel more, and better yet, travel in style.
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!
