Dear we're bringing back The Beatles we promise as soon as The David Bowie
reunion tour completes with special guest Long John Baldry -

The return promise  of a van so simple that anyone with four or five
wrenches and a screwdriver or two could work on it - is long past -
The vanagon or the safari 20+ window  which could never compete on today's
roads is long gone and the new beetle or a new van is not the old van --
westfalia is no more with Electrolux bringing  alliances into the winnigago
furnished interior - (imitation of D. Trump) #NOTTHESAME Bad really bad--
anyway I digress -
Putting a badge on a vehicle and placing the smile lines under the nose
like graphics will not make the electric VW a bus -
The several real loaf or bricks I have had blessing my life could have the
entire wetfalia package removed in a few minutes to make a 1 ton cargo van
- once product delivered replace westfalia interior and go camping in
places most people did not even know existed - and those who did know
marvelled at your appearance with - a two wheel drive van in 4 x4  coontry
Amazing indeed
There was only one Woodstock - one Toronto Rock N Roll Revival and only one
Long John Baldry -
The article referenced is a media hype by what is likey a lazy journalist
afraid to say the things I just said cause then VW might not take out an
advert in the paper
:p sorry so cynical and it is not even friday --- apology to mods if I
offended
Regards
