I' know my corvairs myself, for owning four 1966's myself.  I guess those
days prepared my for the vanagon days of today.  I didn't think, or I
forgot, there were Corsa styles sold after the 65/66 years?  I guess there
were, but 140 engines only.  I drove the 140 and the 180.  I never did feel
that  turbo was ever working right.  The real comparison is the parts for
both are expensive and it was and still is always something going wrong with
them. (just glad the push rod tube seals work better on the vanagon.

Subject: the vanagon and the corvair part 2

I have been with corvairs sence 1967 and have owned about 15 of them and
currently own a 1967 corsa turbo convert and 1968 corsa coupe. I also have 2
vanagons 1985 gl and 1990 carot. they are really fun to drive but hard to
maintain. I really only like the 1966 to 1969 model corvair and 1985 thru
1991
model vanagons.
