Although I'm not always sure about the quality of the T3/Vanagon (the older ones certainly rust a lot in wet climates like Holland,
and eat engines and transmissions), I agree with your opinion of the MB Vito/Marco Polo.
I checked one out at the D�sseldorf RV show last September. It's very neat, but it's also very small
inside - MUCH smaller than a Vanagon. The driver sits very far back, as in MPVs, and this eats camping space. Also, I think overall
length is a few inches shorter than Vanagon.
The thing I really like though is the length of the bed - a full 2 metres (6'8"?) rather than the 1.85 (6'2") you have in the
Vanagon Westfalia and Westfalia Eurovan.
