Hi All
I am looking at perhaps acquiring a 1994 South African T3/T25 (big window). It looks just like the 1982-1991 Vanagons. Does anyone have any experience with these. It has the Audi 2.5 5 cylinder motor. I am a bit worried parts may be hard to get. Have read a little and appears at least the brakes are South African specific and hard to get. Any info or links would be much appreciated. |

You may want to post this question on the Club 80-90 forum if you haven't already. That forum is in England and they have more experience with the S.A. vans.

| Thanks for the tip. I have tried The brickyard which is in UK and does have a SA forum but not info there. |

Hi Phil,
I have one here, I hope to do an engine transplant into my van one day, they are a sweet engine, this van drives great but the body is rusted badly so I am parting it out, shame.
