I am selling my ’89 Caravelle GL 2.1 manual to fund my new upgrade to a syncro camper.

They say a picture is work a thousand words, I hope so because writing about the amount of work I have done to this car in the last 2 years will turn into a book.


The Body is very solid, retains a lot of original paint but has its fair share of dents and scratches. All windows have been removed in the last year, cleaned, painted and reinstalled with new german rubber. Simply put you would be hard pressed finding even the smallest spot of rust. (tow bar and rear sliding window not included)

Mechanically the car runs like a top, is smooth and quite. Many rubber and plastic items have been replaced though out, always using german parts where possible. Including replacement of all fuel line components and reconditioning of the fuel tank. The car has 324000KM on the clock and the top end of the engine was rebuilt at 240000km (receipts included) Audi big brakes are also fitted.

The Interior is in outstanding condition with passenger swivel seat, vintage air genIV in dash air conditioning (COLD!!!) and parrot asteroid 2DIN head unit including a host of modern features. (same unit as current Mazdas) 4 x 4’’ competition spec speakers and an 8’’ woofer.

I’ll start a list of stuff -

911 foglight (looks factory) switch and foglight wiring
Go Westy fuel tank reseal including metal junctions, plastic lines also replaced with alloy
S/S exterior fitting screws
OEM spoiler
312mm audi A6 brakes
Full service and delivery history
16 x 7 inch Mercedes rims, custom center caps and pirellli P7 215/60 tyres











Located in Newcastle
You can contact me - Nils on 0400592250 or though the site

Looking for $16000 (consider small car as part trade)

This is such a nice well sorted van.

A shame you are selling.

Nothing better than a 4wd and a 2wd T3 kombi in your collection Nils.....

Pockets are only so deep, can only have one or the other I'm afraid.
