Ya I was curious of the utility port arrangement shown here. (from ad):

http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NzY4WDEwMjQ=/z/FG8AAOSwwNVTtHXM/$_20.JPG

My Canadian Westy has 2 up and remaining shore power port down low.
I've only ever seen the 3 in a row on US models.

That price seems quite low for a Syncro Westfalia!

Using google translate, here's the English version of text in ad:

"Rare 1991 VW Vanagon GL Syncro Westfalia Bus, full camper! This van
is equipped with 4-cylinder 2.1L engine, manual 4-speed transmission
and four wheel drive!
The body of the van is very simple, no bumps and no shots. Paint
shines and looks good! No major rust. There are some minor superficial
scratches, blemishes and rock chips in the paint coat / clear expected
for the age of the vehicle. As with most of these vans, the original
painting began to oxidize and the van was repainted a few years ago.
There are some places around the bus, mainly around the sliding door
where the paint has chipped, scratched him since and has been
retouched, it is not a perfect match
general condition is exellent, did not need anything before you servire

More information please contact"
