> Was the Transporter name used in Europe for the Vanagon? > > Bill Yes and no. The Transporter is the base model delivery van--that name is used in Canada, Europe and the rest of the world. The name Caravelle is used in Europe to describe passenger and camper vans. US and Canada (I think) are the only places the moniker "Vanagon" is used.
