I have an 86 Wolfsburg Syncro that has a tan interior, everthing is the same as in these pics EXCEPT that I have the corduroy seats and not the newer seat fabric/design.  All panels, seat vinyl, carpet dash, table etc... match mine.  Sure wish I could find that newer fabric/design as the corduroy is falling apart!  On other difference is that I don't have the jumpseat but have a mounted seat facing backwards that has storage underneath it.

i was thinking that too.  the front seats are original tan, but the rear
interior is definately from a carat or 87 up wolfsburg.  and all the
carat/wolfy interiors were grey.  i think someone dyed the vinyl tan, and
sprayed the grey sidepanels tan, and table brown.  because the seats look
like they have a grey tinge to them..
