Hahaha.  In South Africa they don't have a clue about us having Vanagons
here.  They call it the Volksy Bus.  It's expensive there and they hold onto
it.  They also have about five different kind of engines, from 1.9 to 3.0.
Also the Ottinger models which is a little like our Wolfsburg edition ones
but it's an other company like Eddie Bauer here.  Ottingers can have or have
six cylinder engines.  But they don't have any campers like ours.  I was
thinking to go back to live there again and just make all those beutiful
vans into campers for a fortune.
