Below we feature some of the great VW Things we’ve recently sold For a complete gallery view and more info about each Thing visit our VW Cars Sold Gallery

We have this very nicely restored orange Type 181 VW Thing for sale. This is a California Thing, originally from the Southern California desert. Very solid with no signs of bondo or rust.

This VW Thing under went a recent, nice quality restoration. The paint is fresh and looks great! The interior was redone and looks fantastic and a new top was put on as well. The attention to detail is obvious. Bumpers, glass and rubber all look very nice.

In addition, it starts, runs and drives very nicely. New exhaust system, wheels, tires and more. The original gas heater is installed but not connected. – SOLD

1974 VW Thing for Sale Rare Avocado Green Thing!

This green car is one of many VW Things we have sold over the years. This one is the middle-of-the-road car of the bunch. This is a nice, affordable Thing that runs and drives now with working brakes.

A nice running motor was just installed and front wheel cylinders and shoes were just replaced and are new so it’s a running and driving, nice complete car.

The top has no tears. This is an original Avocado Green Thing–the rarest of the 4 available stock colors, it has been repainted but it is fairly close to the original color. SOLD.

Project Thing priced to sell at $1300 – SOLD

Here is another option for you if you are looking for something very affordable just to get your foot into the fun world of VW Things. It’s a project car for sure.

It’s a ’73 VW Thing and if you don’t want to feel overwhelmed with a total restoration you could perhaps put brakes in it, put on some newer tires and a classic air-cooled motor and just enjoy it as is.

It has a factory hard top. I got this one from a lady who had owned it since the ’80s. It has low mileage but that doesn’t exactly matter as much without the motor.

It would be a lot of work to restore to factory showroom condition but that could always remain an option down the road if you were to just focus on getting it back on the road to start.

The second VW Thing we have for sale is this great red Thing. The engine in this VW starts right up and runs great, even without giving it any gas, you can just lean through the door, hit the key, and the engine fires right up. When I was checking out this car the original founder of Things Unlimited was there tuning the engine and carburetor.

That guy sure knows what he’s doing because the car runs and idles great. You can have your choice of the wheels and tires that are on the car, or you can have a good set of stock wheels and tires if you prefer. – SOLD

Ever since buying my first 1974 VW Thing in 1991 I’ve been hooked, and now I had the chance to sell the one and only “Safari Grande” featured in Dune Buggies and Hot VW’s Magazine! It was built by Larry Dustman of the Thing Shop in Arizona.

A custom built 1973-1974 6-door Acapulco VW Thing Limousine! The front half of a 1973 and the back half of a 1974 – so it has heat in the front and back. Larry built 2 of these but the other has gone missing – it was last seen, gulp, in a junk yard, and has since disappeared.

This limo Thing has a stretched Hard Top, a stretched Acapulco Top, Full roll bars, 2387 Cc engine (this beauty roars!), and dual carbs. Larry changed the paint scheme to blue and white in the late ’90’s at the request of a previous owner.

Another famous Thing (above) is an awesome custom built (also by The Thing Shop, and also featured in Dune Buggies and Hot VW’s) sexy little 1973 2-door Acapulco VW Thing. The “Safari Pequeño” This is a great fun little Thing, and I believe it is a one of a kind. It was built by John Cullinan while working at the Thing Shop and shortened 14 inches to make it a 2 door. It has since had the motor replaced with a mostly stock VW Beetle engine, and the color scheme changed to yellow. (the 6-door limo and this 2-door actually switched color schemes)

Acapulco Thing number three (above) is an original 1974 4-door Acapulco – Mostly restored by Steve Leonardis of San Jose California. Everything is stock, it came from California and has all correct vacuum lines and California emissions in their correct locations. It even has the original motor, original muffler, and stock Thing radio and speaker. Has the original Surrey Top on an additional frame, and a Hard Top with luggage rack (pictured above). 60,481 original miles. SOLD

Where to Buy a Home in Moscow in 2024

The growth in suburban house prices in 2021 can be as high as 15%. This prognosis was voiced by the participants of Moscow’s real estate market. Housing near Moscow has already gone up in value by 7%, and before the end of the year, this number is quite likely to rise by another 2–3%. The pandemic has changed the trends on the suburban real estate market – the current demand for detached houses is noticeably higher than before the global outbreak of Covid-19, and this naturally influences the cost of residential homes, say the experts. They also note that traditionally, the fall-winter period has always been considered a time of low demand for houses for sale in Russia; however, the opposite is now the case.

Here are the Moscow real estate categories to consider when buying a house in Russia:

• By direction and location (Rublyovka, Novaya Riga, Barvikha);
• By classification ( luxury , business class, economy);
• By development format (townhouses, detached private homes).

When purchasing homes in Moscow, Russia, a good rule of thumb is to select houses within an 18.6-mile (30 km) radius from the center of Moscow. This ensures you will get a well-developed infrastructure, and that the chosen location will be replete with hospitals and schools.

We recommend considering the West, South and North directions just out of Moscow. You may notice that country houses are noticeably cheaper on the capital’s Eastern side. However, this is due to poor environmental conditions – the result of the presence of a number of industrial facilities in the entire East area.

Best Cottage Communities in Moscow

Muscovites with high incomes live in closed elite cottage communities that have their own full infrastructure. Such cottage communities are usually designed by Europe’s best architects, especially contracted for the job. These locations have everything: private English schools, restaurants, shops, pools and gyms, beauty salons and equestrian sports clubs.

The most expensive houses up for sale are located in the Barvikha Hills area (Rublevka direction). This elite location near Moscow even has its own famous brand boutiques: Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino, Rolex, Patek Philippe, Bentley, Ferrari and Harley-Davidson. The least expensive house here costs 1.5 million US dollars and has a floor area of 656 sqft (200 m²). This gated community is just 10-20 minutes by car away from Moscow itself.

We encourage you to consider some of the following elite locations as you decide where to purchase your ideal property: Etude Family Club, La-Mansh, Western Residence, Yusupovo Life Park, Odintsovo, Novaya Riga and Pirogovo. There you will find everything one requires for a comfortable life, at the price of 300 to 500 thousand US dollars for a residential home.

As you choose your future home, make sure to take into account the category of the land on which it is built. Each category has its own taxation rate. Our lawyer can explain all the details on property taxes in Russia to you at your request. Contact us to get your consultation!

Moscow city tourism committee organizes conference for indian mice market stakeholders.

New Delhi [India], April 24 (ANI): Recognising market demand, the Moscow City Tourism Committee organized a conference for representatives of the Indian MICE industry, to introduce them to the tourism strengths of the Russian capital.

MICE stands for Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions, and is a type of tourism in which large groups, usually plan things well in advance.

The event took place on April 19 in Delhi and brought together over 100 participants from MICE agencies of both countries, corporate customers, representatives of the travel industry in Moscow, Aeroflot and the Indian branches of Sberbank.

Business tourism is one of the most promising directions for Moscow.

In 2023, the capital was visited by 3.7 million business tourists - 7 per cent more than in 2022. And India remains one of the leaders among visitors from non-CIS countries in terms of the number of business travellers.

"The Russian capital as a centre of business tourism and corporate events is already an established and a strong brand in the international arena," commented Anastasia Popova, Deputy General Director for International and Industry Cooperation of Project Office for the Development of Tourism and Hospitality in Moscow.

"Now our task is to demonstrate to our Indian partners all the possibilities of organizing high-value MICE events in Moscow in combination with already proven tourist programs," said Popova.

At the Shaping MICE Future Conference, industry experts from Russia and India pronounced statements and speeches on the future of MICE events in these two countries, a presentation of the MICE potential of Moscow was showcased, and an analytical report on the state of the outbound MICE market in India was presented to the visitors.

During the panel discussion, participants assessed the current status and interaction peculiarities with the MICE market in India and developed recommendations for the MICE industry in Moscow during the general brainstorming session.

Representatives of the Indian MICE industry participated in B2B negotiations to find new cross-partners in the Moscow business environment and among representatives of the hospitality industry.

Representatives of the MICE industry took part in the event from Moscow.

Among them were DMC (Grand Rus, Academservice, Headed Goose, Satguru Travel, Isba Rus, Hug the Bear, Mellenium Group) as well as representatives of other partners interested in the development of MICE cooperation between Russia and India: Global transfers provider i'way and hotels Edge Seligerskaya and Edge Vinogradovo Moscow by Rotana.

"In 2024, we have witnessed a significant surge (more than quadruple) in the demand for transfers by Russians visiting India, both for business and leisure purposes. Muscovites are leading the trend, with 80 per cent of transfer bookings originating from the capital since the beginning of the year. Additionally, we observe a growing interest from Indian tourism agencies in exploring Russia, resulting in a substantial increase in our collaboration," commented Dmitriy Saraykin, co-founder of Global Transfer Provider i'way.

The Shaping MICE Future conference allowed the Moscow City Tourism Committee to form a pool of MICE industry representatives in Moscow to prioritize incoming requests for events and clarify India's requirements for business and corporate events to build mutually effective work. Indian colleagues received up-to-date information about Moscow as a safe and attractive MICE destination and were able to find potential partners among representatives of the MICE industry of the Russian capital and were able to present the MICE market in India.

"The event served as a remarkable platform for fostering meaningful dialogue and collaboration within the tourism industry. The event provided us with invaluable opportunities to engage with key stakeholders from the tourism department, as well as tour operators and service providers. The insights gained during the event underscored the Moscow City Tourism Committee's keen interest in the Indian outbound market, and we are optimistic about the promising prospects for Moscow as a destination, particularly in the post-pandemic landscape. We firmly believe that with concerted efforts and strategic initiatives, Moscow has the potential to emerge as a top-choice destination for Indian tourists," said Mudit Mathur, director of Tours Delite India, representing Academ Service - Russia in India.

The conference also assessed the solutions to foreign demand for non-standard venues and elements in MICE programs, such as museums, parks, theaters and others. Holding MICE events at offbeat locations, such as the State Historical Museum, the Moscow Planetarium and Khudozhestvenny Cinema, is becoming popular.
