I've got both ('82 & '93).  Outside dimensions are almost identical.  I
think the Vanagon might have a little more interior volume, but not
significantly.  Both of them are great haulers of people and things.  The
Eurovan has the advantage of a completely flat floor for 4'x8' stuff when
you remove all seats and the rear hatch area has a very low sill(?) for
getting stuff inside.  But they are both spacious vehicles.

I've also owned 2 Chrysler Mini-vans, and I do mean MINI.  I couldn't get
over the difference in volume between them and VW's.
