Hmm, that seems a bit high.

If there's no rust and no dings/paint issues it might be worth it.

But there are a lot of other systems that can/will go wrong on it and
that cost some serious coin.

Either way, good luck! I love mine, people comment about it all of the
time and it's alot of fun to take the family on trips.

Cheers,
Harry

>>> I have to bow to the experts here, I have found an '89 Vanagon for sale, seller claims (and I think he truly believes, not trying to rip anyone off) that the van is a Blue Star. It DOES have Wolfsburg Edition badges on the front fenders, it has a gray dashboard, fold out bed and two jump seats plus the fold out table. Power windows, mirrors, etc. Nice looking up holstery, don't know how to describe, kind of a slash cut pattern. Question is, is it really a Blue Star? It is a beautiful van and I'd love to have it, but seller is asking what I'd call a premium price based on the belief it is a Blue Star.   Thanks,  Jeff
