a friend of mine just had his vw cabriolet stolen yesterday morning.. and that brought me to thinking - do people even steal vanagons? i mean, ive been on this list from back in the old Lenti days and ive never seen "someone stole my vanagon!" posting... yes, alot of vanagons get broken into by crackheads who want to root thru the westy cabinets or take a stereo for some quick money, but has anyone ever heard of a whole vanagon being stolen? seriously, i doubt if the average car thief would want to be caught ever stealing one.. the vanagon's boxy and ungainly looks and pitifal performance is all the theft deterrant you'll ever need.. :<) kinda like stealing a Yugo.. chris |
