To my recollection your comments are correct regarding Vanagons. I don't know much about Splitties, Bays & Eurovans, so I won't comment there. The Vanagon Multivan was a model in 1990 & 1991 and my Camper standards, it wasn't much of a camper because it didn't contain any camping accessories, but did have the Westfalia pop-top. VW did not call it a Camper model. I wouldn't call it a "standard" or "base" model though, because it was equipped very luxuriously. Power mirrors-windows-door locks, alloy wheels, A/C & more. The only options were metallic paint (at no charge I believe), a stereo, and automatic transmission. It was much like the Vanagon Carat with a pop-top added.
