yes. it's true ...
'in a way' ..
more modern, more aerdynamic, FWD with great frontal crash protection ..
later models have ABS brakes.
things vanagons won't ever have ...
and ...

less room inside.
a *nightmare* to work on ..
( you should say what year and engine the one you are looking at is. .  )

I'll give you a fine deal on my 93       2.5  Five Cylinder, 5 speed
manual trans MV poptop Eurovan.
It even runs.

they are odd to get in and out in front of compared to a vanagon.
nice seats though ...
make a good cruiser on the highway.
they are known for eating up money.

And it does not have as much road clearance as does the Vanagon, so not so good on back roads.  But I know nothing about reliability.  GoWesty says if your preference is for a vehicle that is more modern and is more reliable, you should choose the Eurovan over the Vanagon.
