    This is amazing both modern caravan and vw, I remember back in the day when you scraped the old white 1990 and built the blue one, I missed the event of the purple van geting changed over!

    My buddy and I were just talking about this combo. We both like the versatility of the stow and go caravan and the fuel economy of the TDI. Very cool conversion.
