I have not checked the price of the new vans in Brazil, but 2 years ago in the dealership they were 20,000 Reals ($7,000) at todays exchange rate. I believe they are still made. The base model comes with an air cooled engine and a diesel was also available, with an ugly-duct-taped-on- looking radiator on the front. I can't remember what they charged for the diesel option. Late model Mexican vans were also available with inline 4 VW motors and diesels. I don't get there much so I don't know what they cost. I get to travel to Brazil regularly, and am writing this reply in Sao Paolo.
