HA  Ha  ha ha ha ha ha ha!
If I understand correctly ...you hail from New Albany... who could you
possibly mean?
You can't be speaking of Byers Imports nearby to New Wexlertown  and surely
not the Georgesville Rd. dealership; or perhaps the crosstown  MAG in
Triplin ( used to be Dublin).  In my fifteen years' experience with VW
vans, the first two of these places shied from Vanagons when they were much
newer. Because of this they sold VERY FEW vans and know next to nothing
about them now.  MAG, while capable at Vanagon repairs, is very expensive
($2K for new heads in 1995 for PO).
Try getting a real estimate from any of several fine private repair shops in
central OH and then compare!
LOL! !! !!!
ROTFL!!!!!!!
And it's not even Friday!
