Hi,
From what I have heard, there was a line of VW Multivans produced in Europe
called "BlueStar", "WhiteStar", and "RedStar"... one does not have to be a
genius to figure out what color these all were.
Anyway, they are the equivalent basically of a Wolfsburg I think. They have
the fiberglass bumpers, and heated/electric mirrors, and all the options
like power steering, A/C, etc. These were made in 1990-1991 I believe,
could have also been made earlier.
There is one to look at on eBay Germany... it looks like they made some
modifications to it though:

The really sweet ones I see around here though, are the "Limited Last
Editions". They are all individually numbered on the decal, and were made
in 92-93 in Austria... I have not seen any Westfalia LLEs though... if they
had one, that would be the ultimate car for me!
See ya,
RSF
