Have you folks being seeing the previews of the forthcoming VW MPV,
the Sharan? However, the news I saw today from Geneva says that "VW
has placed a two-year moratorium on the introduction of further niche
products..."

I guess that means a camper may be a while in coming.

"The new Sharan will initially be offered with VW's 1.9-litre
turbodiesel motor, but will be joined later by a further development 
of this engine giving higher power and more economy."

Marketing manager Friedrich-Wilhelm Klitzke remarked "We are already
setting the pace with a return of more than 57mpg at a steady 56mph
from the standard unit. But we think that modifications to the 
injectors and management system will increase performance."

I do not know if the Sharan will be available, either soon or at all,
in the American market.
