I have seen a very nice burgandy one at last years VW show in Port Coquitlam. I have photos of it on my web site at http://www.volkswagen.org in the VW Show 98 section.

It is similar to the 7 pass. Wolfsburg models I have seen except instead of 2 rear facing jump seats it has 6 high back captains chairs with the 2 center ones swiveling a full 360 & the rear 2 recline fully (flat). There are storage bins down both sides (from the rear seats back) directional lighting, a pull out table, ful A/C, PW & cruise, "jail bars" in the rear window, factory alloy rims & body cladding around the waist line. Q1. Was this model available in the USA ? is anyone else in Canada in possession of one ? I have not seen another except mentioned in a South African VW brochure. Q2 What is an Adventure wagen ? I have seen mention of this twice. Thankyou !
