This restyling had never been applied to the Brazilian versions of the B1 Passat. BTW I've never seen a 2-door factory-fitted with the Diesel engine, only the 4-door Passat LDE bound to regional exports.


The only fastback Karmann-Ghia I know is the TC

That Gurgel is down in cRiPpLe_rOoStEr territory.
I haven't seen a X-15 in stock conditions for a long time, actually haven't seen any since 2013.

Having a handful of neighbors who are Holocaust survivors, I'd not feel so comfortable to roam around in a Nazi-looking ride, even though the Kubelwagen seems to be a quite good off-roader. I'd rather get something like that T3 Syncro that I spotted in 2012 while I was walking my dog (pictures taken by me and uploaded on the blog of a friend).




Some more T3 pictures, those were taken by a friend. This one with Canadian plates is a turbodiesel



Surprisingly, this one with Argie plates looks air-cooled...
