Hmmm.
That's an interesting piece of obfuscation...I wonder if it really
originated with VW or was it something the salesdude came up with.
If it wasn't "officially imported", there's NO WAY they could sell
it...Obviously the 97EV chassis usesd in the EuroVan Camper was
officially imported, a GLS just has all the interior parts and
windows.

Do you recall how many miles it had rolled up?

Gee...perhaps they'd give a 10% discount on this vehicle, too?
