I'll third that.  I love Volkwagens.  Anything that helps me
learn a little something about any VW is worth it in my
book.  Unimogs aren't Vanagons.  Neither are Iltiseses (or
is that just Ilti?), or Freightliners or is the new Microbus
however, those are fair game on the list.  So are never
ending discussions about battery isolators.

I hate to add more noise to the list, but I agree with
Terry.  It was a simple, innocent question.  As we are all
well aware, there are many different people on this list,
many of whom have interests in many other vehicles (I don't
see anyone complaining because Stuart MacMillan's signature
contains all his MGs!), so really, when it comes to anything
VW related, I always thought of this as a good source where
*SOMEONE* would know, no matter how obscure.  I guess not.
I'll get off the soapbox.
