Do you mean 1985 Westfalia perhaps or maybe a 1995 Eurovan Westfalia
that wasn't available in Canada. That would be interesting to see. The
last Westfalia camper sold in Canada was 1993. After that they were a
win-a-bagels.

JMHO Get as late a model Vanagon Westfalia, with as low a mileage
(kilometerage :-),as you can afford. Don't bother getting a Syncro model
unless you intend going down logging roads. Get a water cooled if for no
other reason than HEAT in the WINTER. You will never be sorry.
