Why did you post exactly the same thing that you posted 10 days ago? Just curious.

the imp. thing is the Eurovan itself

apparently they flunked a US crash test - time to standardize those for at least the EU, US, Japan & Canada...

I accidentally posted it in PARF, and asked it to get moved...it was never done. Sorry about that.

An odd name for a cool vehicle...is this their target audence?

Several colleagues (with 3 or more kids) have one of those. 2.5 TDI, 176 hp with 6speed automatic combined with 4x4. Very expensive, same price category as a well optioned Touareg or ML.
