The Eurovan is significantly lower and narrower than the Vanagon. Couple that with the price of a Weekender version at $39,000 in Washington with tax and license and it is impossible for me to justify. I could buy three or four used Vanagon Westfalias and have my own caravan of friends along with me!

For the $705/mo payment (for five years at 9% and $5000 down) it should have all those features the Vanagon 2000 was going to have (as described recently on the list) so you could live in it!
