Used Volkswagen Rabbit for Sale near British Columbia

Carburator barely holding on Good brakes Runs cool Primer finish Very fun, very unique, style of it's own. 4 speed manual purchase price was cheap, repairs are free to cheap, gas is ok. Holding up great for an old car.

This was my first new car. I bought it in Germany as a US serviceman. It was made in Pennsylvania for the US market and even with only 90 bhp was the quickest car to 50 mph available in the US except for the Corvette, such was the state of US Automobiles. Its handling was fabulous and after the addition of an oil cooler, it would cruise all day on the autobahn at 105 mph. Mine held together very well and I sadly sold it in Mississippi after five years and 98000 miles with no mechanical trouble at all. The paint and interior held up and looked new also. I really miss this car. Not the fastest, but by far the best of the 80's pocket rockets. The 84 was the last and best of the Rabbits, it had a 120 mph speedo while the 83's had only an 85 mph speedo and clunkyer looking bumpers.

My vw rabbit was my first car to be modified (by me) it was my first sunday project. it had minor modifications in the engine (better lubrication, higher compression, bigger intake and carb). This was my only means of transportation for quite some time, the little mods i made to the car gave me a tremendous result in power and fuel economy. at first the car had been thirsty for parts since it lacked proper maintenance and i had some problems, but after all the problems were fixed it only needed gas and it was the most reliable car i have ever had. It was an daily used car with great performance and since its appearance is not that great for some others it was quite a surprise in the racing community (nobody likes to get blown with an inferior car!!! jejeje) the cost for this car was surprisingly low, the parts where very easy to find and very cheap. this was a very fun car to drive on the road and on the track.

It does it all !!! Fun, performance, acceleration, handling, comfort, fuel efficiency, etc... You could drive to the end of the country without effort ! And the looks of it, specially the interior, with its blue racing seats covered with red stripes.

I owned a 77 Scirocco before my GTI, so I already was into VW's. I bought this car for $1500, and put a few more bucks into it to beef up the performance. Old V-Dubs are so easy to supe up. A few dollars here, a few dollars there, and voila! A bonified slicer and dicer of suped up Japanese cars. This cars was quick, handled really nice, braking was top notch (thanks to a few upgrades). It was a solid car, but did need a repair here and there. Afterall, it was built in 1984. I totally dig the A1 VW's inside and out. I planned on adding a euro grill and cabriolet body kit to make it prettier. Gas milage was pretty good, and maintenence was cheap. Totally fun car to drive. I'd still have it today if it weren't for some jerk who blew a stop sign and ruined this car and my back.
