Hi Everyone.  I've been running Bosch Platinums for three years now
in our '90 Syncro with absolutely terrific results.  Platinums
require a strong engine that is running in tune.  There is a very
small electrode contact that can be easily fouled, but if your engine
is in good health, you should have no problems and be able to benefit
from these plugs.  I run the Bosch Platinums in my mom-in-law's Golf
1.8 litre, our Miata, and our van with 100% satisfaction.  Great cold
starts, clean, carbon free contacts, and they never need to be
regapped.  I get two years on a set of plugs for these vehicles, and
they still look good.  I change them out on a two year cycle just to
make me feel good.  Power is improved, gas mileage is improved, and
overall performance is also improved.  I have no hesitation in
recommending these plugs (WR7CP) for the Vanagon owner that has a
strong engine.

Just my experience.
Harry.
