Volkswagen Transporter, 2007, Rovaniemi

For sale: a true survivor of Finnish working life. This MAGNIFICENT 2007 Volkswagen Transporter has seen more life than the average marriage and covered more kilometres than most removal men combined.

Approximately 580,000 kilometres, despite what the odometer says. It is no longer a reading; it is a life story. This vehicle has carried goods, tools, builders and probably at least one renovation worker who had lost his sense of purpose.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION AND EQUIPMENT

• 2.5 TDI – legendary five-cylinder diesel. A sound that wakes the neighbours and reminds you that nothing in life comes for free.

• 4MOTION – four-wheel drive. If one wheel can no longer cope, the other three do their best.

• Manual gearbox – giving the driver the opportunity to participate actively in the car’s suffering.

• VAT deductible – perhaps the car’s most sensible feature.

• Tow bar and two sets of tyres – ready for new adventures or its final journey.

• Kenwood radio – provides entertainment even when the engine’s auxiliary noises begin forming their own orchestra.

• Webasto auxiliary heater – included! It does not work, but at least that is one thing you no longer need to wonder about. Mainly decorative, and a reminder of warmer times.

• Non-existent service history. The upside: no need to stress over whether the last service was 15,000 or 150,000 kilometres ago. The suspense remains!
  

ODOMETER READING – THE CAR’S BEST FEATURE

The odometer currently shows just over 300,000 kilometres. However, this does not tell the whole story.

At some point in the car’s life, the instrument cluster was apparently replaced or otherwise creatively handled. As a result, the recorded mileage has dropped by several hundred thousand kilometres.

When the different readings are added together, the car’s actual total mileage is estimated at approximately 580,000 kilometres.

In other words, the odometer shows just over 300,000 km, but the car’s life experience amounts to around 580,000 kilometres. A little uncertainty in its history, but we are not buying a new car here.


BRAKES – SAFETY FIRST

The brakes need a little work. The brake pads or other brake components at one end, or possibly both, are nearing the end of their service life.

The good news: the car still stops!

So you can get to work straight away. We cannot make quite such a firm promise about getting back.

A brake overhaul also offers an excellent opportunity to get acquainted with the chassis and spend quality time in the garage.

CONDITION AND HISTORY

580,000 kilometres do not come from Sunday driving alone. This car has earned every one of them.

We do not promise the feel of a new car, as that would already be dishonest and contrary to consumer protection law. Instead, we offer the chance to own a piece of German commercial-vehicle history.

The car shows signs of use. There are probably signs of use underneath those signs of use, too.

WHO IS THIS SUITABLE FOR?!

• A builder who wants a car that looks as tired as they do after a working day.

• A four-wheel-drive enthusiast who is not afraid of small surprises.

• A mechanic looking for year-round employment.

• An investor who understands that not every investment has to make a profit.

• Someone tired of boring and reliable cars.

• Someone who does not need a Webasto heater or, strictly speaking, brakes either.
