My '91  has upholstery that looks like that in the photos except for color
(gray  instead of tan).  I would call mine velour, too.  Mine also looks
like new, despite 150K miles, and my van lived in Arizona for most of its
life.  I have thought it was pretty durable stuff.  Not generally  true?  DMc




all 85 up westy GL full campers (and most other '85 up GL  passenger
vanagons)  had the velour.


the 85-86 westy weekender had the corduroy.    thank god vw  only used it
on that one model.


the corduroy doesn't hold up well.


i have a '84 wolfsburg which had the blue corduroy..    90k  original miles
and the seats were shredded.
