  • Brief Walkaround tour of my 1982 aircooled VW Vanagon Westfalia Camper while at Volksfest. I'm in carshow mode so most of the equipment is hidden away. I should a tour again when I'm out camping someday. Buy Westfalia Gifts USA: amzn.to/2erGMCt CANADA: amzn.to/2dG90Fr

    Bought a 1982 Westy last summer. As I'm in North Dakota - its now in storage for the winter. We got out a few times camping last fall before winter set in - looking to more adventures in the future!! This is my 2nd camper. Such great vehicles.

    I'm looking at buying one of these but my mechanic just warned me that they break down all the time. He put it nicely as, "it's an adventure" to have one of these. How has your upkeep been on it?

      I've owned it 11 years. It's 40 years old now and I just did an engine rebuild in 2021, but only because I melted a pistion from an oil cooler leak. The air cooled engines are reliable as long as you have full engine cooling tins. I have done about 10K in maintenance including the rebuild over those 10 years. My van is mechanically good, but now body and paint need work.

    Very nice van! Are you satisfied with 2.0? Mine is also air cooled, but it's a 1.6 version, and it's to weak and to slow for this car. So I just wonder to change the motor to something stronger, or maybe 2.0 would be a good solution..

      X Girl What did you do with your old VWs and did you get a replacement?

      @X Girl , And yet millions of VW campers were sold over the decades and they're still in demand today. So it would seem a lot of people don't agree with you. I owned a '71 camper. I put in a Porta Potty which came in handy especially on those cold nights when venturing outside was not appealing at all. And yes it was under powered and yes it did require more constant maintenance. But the beauty was you could do a lot of the work yourself. When I owned mine it was also my daily driver. It would fit in any parking space or garage. You cannot say the same thing about Toyota Chinooks or Dolphins.

      @X Girl , Well I owned a VW camper for 5 years and it took me over most of North America. It was one of the most fun vehicles I ever owned. And you claim to dislike them so much, yet you owned 4? Curious.
