John.T.C asks: >What were the differences between the Type 221 (MicroBus) and the >Type 231 (Kombi)? It seems like a lot of people get the two confused >and mixed up quite a bit. Most differences are fairly subtle, the ones I know about are: Kombi Microbus no headlining, apart fully headlined, including side from card liner in panels around windows cab roof no interior panels fully paneled with chromed in rear, plain panels strips on two-tone panels in cab black steering wheel white steering wheel black control knobs white control knobs black vent-wing cathces chromed vent-wing catches painted hub caps chromed hub caps cargo area painted in cargo area slightly! painted grey undercoat in body color Basically the Kombi is a panel van with windows, and the Micro is a Kombi with the extras mentioned above. Anyone know of any more differences? Lee.
