There are EuroVan forums, one of them seems to specialize in '93s. GoWesty has a write up on them.

 They show up at the various camping events and they seem to have their fans, but I've heard lots of horror stories.

> I'm a total newbie and don't want to make a mistake. Got a chance to get a 93 MV hardtop weekender. 5 speed 5 cylinder. Had it inspected by a VW mechanic and nothing glaringly wrong. It does have a bad gas gauge and temp gauge and the mechanic says these are quite hard to come by and I should plan on dealing with it for a while. I can probably get it for $5500. Since I have only owned TDI beetle and golfs and never a van of any kind, much less a VW, I am hard pressed to tell if this is a decent rig for simple car camping and road tripping around the PAC NW in the spring/summer/fall. Any advice is greatly appreciated from this community.
