... yes, the end is near. I believe Brazilian production wraps up this month due to air bag regs there. the Van might have continued if it were just the ABS requirements however. according to `VolksWorld' magazine, Danbury Motor Caravans of Bristol [UK] will continue their conversion models until the end of this year. so, anyone interested in a new old camper has time to save up and plan the import process(es). please be advised this may include staying on good terms with our neighbors to the North for a grey market vehicle. wink, wink, nudge, nudge ...   =(:D)   mike
