Never could figure out... what's the difference between the Wolfsburg and
the Carat?  Look pretty much the same to me.

    As discussed on the list before, the Wolfsburg Editions were late year
    production models w/ equipment that are normally optional. I believe the
    marketing guys at VW came up with this idea to stimulate sales midyear
just
    before the new model years are announced. It's a good way to get rid of
the
    previous year's inventory.

    The cool thing about this is you get (in your case) and 1989 with most
of
    the
    goodies which would have cost you extra for the 1990 model year. Try to
find
    out which Wolfsburg Edition this guy is selling you. Is this a van,
camper
    or
    ????




  the '89 wolfsburg edition is a CARAT with a wolfsburg badge on it, grey
  diagonal striped upholstry, grey dash, and a speaker in the left side
panel.
  otherwise, its the same as a Carat, with the jumpseats, side table,
sofabed,
  alloys and all.
