That and their rust protection leaves A LOT to be desired.
Whoever likes average product at premium prices, go get a VW. |
I've got no wing windows
My current car is from Iowa with 0 rust, I've had it way way apart for the swap.
My buddies car has a tad of rust, but VW took care of it under 12 year corrosion warranty.
I drive them because I have similar requirements to my mother, but at a lower price point, all be it with an allowance for higher risk of repair.
Edit: my 1966 Type 2 did have wing windows, they slid in to a steel Chanel, and had a latch that was pot metal and broken when I got it, I replaced them with some super cheap ones that lasted until the bus met its maker.
