Sorry to hear you have a lemon. I've owned my 93 EV/MV since new...yes there
have been some minor problems (most every car I've owned has had them) but
overall I've been very satisfied with the EV, which now has 60K+ miles on
it. Before we bought ours we looked at the $hitboxes sold by Chrysler, Ford,
GM, etc....none of them "communicated" with me...none of them had
"personality"....none of them had a manual transmission, or were fun to
drive...they were nothing more than vehicles designed for "drones" to drive
to work...to bring the kids to "soccer practice", etc....

Would I buy another (assuming VW sold vans again in the US), you better
believe it!
