Hi, This isn't really Vanagon related, but did anyone hear CarTalk last Saturday? I heard from someone else that there was a caller who bought a '99 Eurovan camper. When he went back to the dealership for something, the VIN was decoded as a '96. Then, the dealership had to beat around the bush and come up with the excuse that Winnebago must have had the chassis for a few years before they finished the conversion and moved it back to the VW dealer network. I don't know if there was any other outcome, or if this is considered misrepresentation. Is this true? Is it a big deal? Eurobago owners, check your VINS! Michael Townsend |
