Concur with Mark. US Carats all had plush carpet, a tach, as well as classic
Vanagon rear-air conditioning. The only thing this one appears to have in
common with US Carats is the rear-facing jump seats. It also does not have
the Carat fiberglass lower trim surrounding lower portion of the van.

The US Carats also came in Orly Blue, and Tornado Red - can't recall other
colors...

Carats have a side table and armrests on the front seats. That van in the ad
is the lowly base model, 90/91. Odd configuration, some people like them

Cheap fabric on all seats, rubber carpet, front wing windows that don't
open, no tach, no front armrests, metal dash, all vinyl interior panels,
fewer interior lights, black painted metal bumpers

Rear facing jumpseats, wired for aux battery under driver seat.
Many had PW, PM, PDL, A/C, CC
Some were Syncro.
I only recall white and silver exterior colors.
