Must be my eyes or this monitor because I still think that the seat looks a little tan, but the trim on the doors does not look as brown as it should for a tan interior. Maybe someone will see this van in person and let us know for sure. (Slow news day)

  hey,

  all 87 and up came with the grey interior (which i prefer) and this one has a grey interior as well. the metal thing below the stove always fades a little into tan, thats prob  why you thought its tan?

  the westy might have really high mileage though.... still a good offer. I paid $6.5k for my 128kmiles '87 california westy a year ago.... had an offer for a 300kmile '86 for $4k, but it was smelling like dogs all over.... brrrr. I like dogs, but...

    Did the '88 Westfalias come with the tan interior (which I prefer)?  I thought every thing newer than '86 came with the grey interior.
    If I am correct then why does this one have the tan interior?

    George,
    '85 Westfalia (with a tan interior)
