I thought that in VW-speak "bus" refers to the = pre-vanagon models only.

I dislike referring to my '88 Westie = as a "van" - I prefer to call it a
"bus".  For some = reason, "bus" has a better karmic feeling to it.  To = me,
the word "van" conjures up = images of an old Chevy cargo van with a broken
8-track player, duct tape over the = windows and a hostage in the back.

Definitely a "bus" man, = myself.  You?
