Personally i think they look cool, got those classic VW lines but in a mid engined van, shame it will tip over when you try and do a scandinavian flick

But they have done it for the looks, remember the orginal van was built for space saving not to be a big van, the suzuki super carry looks horrid, you've gotta admit its an improvment over the original?

Jap diddyvans rock.

Still not made my mind up about the fake splits...I like them because they're like baby splits...

Thank you sir, they do indeed rock.

Chaved up Euro and Done up Japstyle are totally different.

I think they look great, and this thread is probably the first time I've ever agreed with Penski on something.

Wonder how much they'd be to import? (not that I would, just curious)

Perfect size for a game of top gear footy

You know you want one

you can't seriosuly be saying that an alternative to a bus is a jap van with a body kit (whether it looks good or not)? Why not just pick up one of these bargain vans in the small adds you were talking about?

Why not, both are classics, one is just hyped up and has a bigger european following than the other.

Nah i'm talking about the Nissan E20's

I suppose for that sort of cash it will be a rot box and a money pit, fair enough if you want to put the work in and everything.

Personally i'm finding myself pulled further and further away from european classics and moving onto the jap stuff.
