Subject: Where is Poznan?
Hi Volks,
I recently received a letter from VW A.G. with =
the build
date and location of my newest Double-Cab.
The letter states that the model is "247GC5"
.
I know 247 is a Double-Cab but what =
is this
"CG5" on the end?
The letter goes on to state that the vehicle =
was built
on the 28th of November 1985 in Poznan.
Where is Poznan?
I have never herd of that assembly plant. =
I thought all Syncro =
T3's were
built in Gaz Austria?
According to the letter my new Double-Cab was =
originally
sold to the U.S.-Army on the 14 of April 1986.
Can any one shed some light on this little =
mystery for
me?
Also for those of you that are interested the =
e-mail
address for the VW corporate archives section is
Thanks
