Re: Any idea what to expect in 2003? (ProRechtsfahrgebot)
It seems that VWoA is making a bold effort (well for them, anyway) to actually make people aware that these things exist. Until larger numbers of them are sold, I can't imagine them giving us any more options.
Have you driven one with the VR6? I would probably have bought the TDI if it were available, but after owning the VR6 for about 6 months and 15k miles, I really like it. It's a sweet motor.
And although the fuel mileage is not stellar, it's not that bad either. And locally, gas is $.75 a gallon now.
If I had to make a wish list, I'd have to put a 5 speed manual tranny on the top of the list with Syncro and the short wheelbase Westfalia camper next.
It's my guess that the T5 will replace the T4 within the next couple of years... probably not 2003, but that goofy microbus thing will be marketed alongside it, if it comes out at all.
