We all know they're stopping making the T2 at the end of the year, i've seen nothing official but the samba have what seems to be a celebration edition for sale. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=1516752
The other day when cleaning out pinky my neighbour said - did you know VW are making the old ones again. I just smiled and said 'oh really' as I didn't want to geek them out about it all
Be interesting to see if any of them last as long as the original ones. Thin body panels etc. Saw one at Vanfest one year, brand new already with rust.
£32000 from the factory plus extras like radio, windscreen wipers, wheels and import duty . could be a bit pricey.
