As part of the thread that culminated in the above information, I may have mentioned that our "L"-model year Carat (02/91) was made in Hannover. Looking at the serial number on the door post this morning, I noticed that it, too, bears the "G" (Graz) assembly code. So, we have 2/18437ths, or roughly .01% of the Graz plant's 2WD Vanagon production in our driveway.

Next Question: What are the production numbers per year for syncros at Graz?
