This van is in very good condition, aving thousands in new parts; however, s mentioned in the condition description. We have only driven it around 50 miles since purchasing, t runs fantastic, an cruise at 70mph on the freeway (got it up to 80mph, ut thats pushing it!) - but we simply have not driven it far enough to say either way how reliable it would be on a cross country trip home or any long journey; again, his is an almost 30 year old VW and anything can go wrong on a long trip - no warranty implied or expressed, e're selling this great Westy as-is, here is.
No license plates are included - in Florida we keep the license plates; so you can ship the van or bring your own license plates. If you ship the van I have used and can recommend DAS dependable auto shippers; beware of shipping "brokers" who don't actually own trucks! Another option is that our vehicle registration office *may* be able to provide you with temporary plates and registration if you pay fees AND taxes on the sale price of the van - from what they've told me the sales tax *may* be remitted back to your states DMV as a credit if your state has a reciprocity agreement, ut thats just my rough understanding, est to call them for any details on costs or to confirm - Ray Valdes Tax Collector 407-665-1000 - If you fly in to Orlando International Airport I don't mind picking you up and giving you a ride. A final note, e will write the actual sale price on the title, o don't ask us to write a lower amount; also, lease click the payment tab to view our payment terms, hanks.
Overall this Westy is just awesome, ou know right away your in an 1987 when you hop in and feel the padded steering wheel or the power from the 2.1L waterboxer or handling from all new shocks and the Mercedes aluminum wheels - these late model VW's are the best. Reserve is $16K - just to help cover our costs, ut van is worth so much more. Feel free to email us with any questions and good luck bidding.
