Listees,
I'm not 100% sure about this, but I seem to remember to have read on the
German Bus Forum this spring, that the SA production of the T3
Caravelle/MIcrobus are about to be laid down sometime this summer :-((. The
car is reportedly outdated, and is to be replaced entirely by the T4 range
of Caravelles. There were also rumours of a small batch of 200 or so cars
to be produced with LHD steering (albeit with left slider) to be sold on
the German market only, as a very last edition of this van. Maybe, maybe
the T3 will replace the T2 for Mexico, but most likely the T4 will enter
there too.
Anybody know anything about this, any SA listees?? Maybe this is the end of
the World, as old "Nostril-damus" predicted?
