They must have confused eurovan with vanagon.  the eurovan is back for
1999 in 7 passenger GLS, Multi-Van (MV), MV with weeekender package
(poptop w/o camping appliances) and full camper (winnebago instead of
Westfalia) .  All except the MV-weekender have been seen by myself and
other listees this month.

BTW it has the 2.8L GLS engine.  HP has been reduced from 170 to 140 but
torque is way up.  it makes these puppies move...
