Sale Details

Description:

We just repurchased this Westy. For details on the previous sales/owners, please click here.

GoWesty and this little Syncro MultiVan Westy have a long history. For one thing, VW did not produce the MultiVan model (pop-top Weekender) in Syncro (4WD) form. GoWesty converted this one to a Syncro—thus combining one of the most desirable pop-top models with the extremely sought-after Syncro running gear.

The previous owner put about 20,000 miles on this vehicle over less than 2 years of ownership. He took great care of it. Here is all we are doing this time around:

• Major GoWesty service—all maintenance back to zero miles
• Super thorough detail inside and out

We repurchased this Syncro Westy Weekender from Brandon for $55,950 delivered. We are marking that up 20%. Included in this mark up is our GoWesty bumper-to-bumper "Easy Rider" warranty. Basically, if anything goes wrong with this Westy in the first 12 months/12,000 miles (whichever comes first), GoWesty will fix it or pay the bill for the shop of your choice to fix it 100%. Then, for the remaining 36/36, we split the bills 50/50—up to a maximum of $5000 in total repair costs over the warranty period.  

This Westy cost Brendan $78,364.61. The price now is over $8,000 less than that, and it comes with a better warranty!

 Eve & Greg were kind enough to send us photos of their van's maiden voyage. As Greg describes it:

"This is just outside Goblin Valley State Park, Utah, in a canyon accessible only by GoWesty Syncros and a few other lesser 4WD vehicles!"
