I’m not sure, but this next one is cheap, so that’s good. Find this 1993 Volkswagen Eurovan GL offered […]
Volkswagen their watercooled front-engine front-drive Eurovan to the USA market in 1993, which was a replacement to the rear-engine rear-drive Type 2 platform, but was it an upgrade?

This next car comes as a tip from Kester who writes: On my shortlist of possible VW Eurovans. Ohhh…zing!

The Volkswagen T4 Transporter replaced the aging Type 2 T3 in 1990 with a modern approach to the people carrier. Gone was the rear mounted flat engine and instead it shared a conventional front-engine front-drive setup, but they still have a dedicated enthusiast network and premium pricing.
