If you are planning to purchase a used VW Van be carful there is a few going for sale online that we inspected at our shop and extremely in bad shape structurally and are listed for sale online again. Nothing wrong buying as is but get them expected first by a shop who do safties. . These two vans will never be structurally sound anymore.
