89er T3 - Bluestar

T3 BluestarT4 Allstar & T3 BluestarWell, what the hell is this? After my miscarried "Limited Last Edition" Diesel tryout and first thinking about getting a new motor for it, I decided that this choice would become almost as expensive as selling it and getting a different T3. I started looking very carefully for another van to buy, because I didn't want to make same mistake as before.
There were some cool vans around, but I still felt unsure or sometimes if I was about to buy/check one, it has already been sold. In January 2008 I found a T3 Multivan Bluestar at autoscout24.de that came from Hannver/Ahlem and I realized that I already knew that van, because I have already seen it some times before in my neighbourhood of Davenstedt. The selling person and his son have been VERY kind. It's been a really great van in brilliant condition with automatic gearing. To be safe, I asked VW to check the van to see if it has any damages or broken things but it passed the exam without any big mistakes, the only thing that's been a minus is that it won't get any environment badge, which here in Hannover and some other German towns means that I am no longer allowed to drive into the city zone.
I had to wait one more month until the seller was willing to finally sell the van at the end of February and until I had all the money to buy it. It's been first hand bought from a former VW-worker; it's not been easy at all for him selling the van. I love driving that van, it's a f****** cool feeling driving it and meeting other T3 drivers on the road!
