Sounds like it could be a Transporter.  There are quite a few here.  They
are often modified into passenger vehicles, campers, etc.  If you ever see
a camper with dual rear doors this explains it.  The 1998 Transporter sold
in Canada offers a 2.4 litre, 5 cyl. diesel (77 hp / 117ft-lbs torque).  My
neighbour has one that was modified in to a Westy/Eurobago clone at several
thousand dollars less.  It has all the Eurobago features including (sadly)
a Norcold (Nevercold) fridge :-(
