I remember back in the early to mid eighties, when I was a kid, there were plenty of Vanagon models around, from the German toy manufacturer SIKU, check out their website@: http://www.siku.de/htdoc/eindex.htm There is no online catalogue, just a presentation of the different series, and from what I can tell, both the Eurovan and Sharan are doing great as different emergency vehicles, as well as a wide range of other VWs and other cars common in Europe. On every page of the SIKU site, there is a link to the WIKING model cars, these are highly detailed small (1:87 H0) scale models. Of course, VW is strongly represented here too. The WIKING site is in German only, but they seem to show all models available, not in any system though. PerL 88 Syncro Arendal, Norway |
