Definitely interesting, but I question that it's an '88. That's an early
steel dash with the radio speaker grille. '84 was the last year for that, at
least in the US models.  Did VW put 1.7l diesels in European vans in '88?

Nice rig to show off at enthusiast gatherings!

It's interesting isn't it? It appears to be complete and in good shape. From
the pics it seems to be in better shape than some westies selling her for
similar if not more money.

So who would buy this van? I would have to guess someone who wants to keep
it as is. The fact that it hasn't sold shows how the vanagon market is
pretty specific. Good for westy, doka/sinka, and Syncro sales not so good
for 2wd tin tops and ex military 2wd.
