Thank you John for your report. You confirm a conclusion I have reached (based on a lot less miles and very mild conditions) that the Vanagon/Westy is a lot more reliable than the impression one can get from reading the various Internet lists. With basic maintenance and common sense they give good, reliable service. And we sometimes forget that there are literally thousands of Vanagons and Westy's in service out there that just keep doing their job and doing it very well. Thanks again. |
