Let's just think about this one for a moment!  Wouldn't = you want to have this in your driveway?  I have a client who is just = bugging me to find a way to get a 4Motion 1.8T Sharan to Canada ( impossible by the = way ).  I admit the T4 (Eurovan) is a nice van but the Sharan is a = lot cheaper (at $27,800 USD) and in a lot of ways better as a people = hauler which is the main reason why people buy these things.  I think this = would put a huge dent in Chrysler's Caravan sales.  The Sharan is actually a = joint venture between Ford and Volkswagen - the Ford Galaxy is the same vehicle.  Seat also make a version of this as = well.
