Hi All, I hear people say the vast quantity of Vanagons and older vans built will insure parts availability and cheapness for many decades. Since they no longer make the vanagons in Mexico is that situation likely to change? If not I'd say the vanagons will always be cheaper tp repair than the Eurovans, and probably easier to work on given the ground clearance. If they see you coming in a vanagon, they know you don't have extra money to burn. Just my opinion.
