<They didn't drive 
them for 250.000kms to find out that the heads would leak and really, what 
car manufacturer wants something to last that long - VW really wishes our 
vans would die so we would buy new ones right?> 














Well, that ain't happening. Monday, during a good portion of my commute home I was behind a new VW Routan. I was following it for quite some time before I even noticed the VW badge on the rear hatch. I pulled around it to get a good look at it. I was then wondering "why?". The badge on the back might as well have said Honda, Toyota, Nissan, or...Chrysler.      Jeff
