I don't mind those vans at all. They are good for what they are.  Been
driving my GF's  the  lower end
version Dodge Caravan. The 5 X 100mm bolt pattern on the 4-cyl vans accept
VW wheels well.   Once
upgraded to proper wheels and tires from a GTi, even the Caravan starts to
take on a different Character.

Cheers,
