Haha no, this is just someone on a rant.

"these are way nicer than any westy i've been in."
If ^that's true, then why this:
"I had it modded beginning of last summer by ursa minor (http://www.ursaminorvehicles.com/) and have only taken it on two trips since."

If you don't take the time to punctuate, I'm not taking the time to read.

I couldn't agree more! There's a couple members here who don't bother with capital letters or punctuation.
I figure that if they can't be bothered to write in an understandable fashion, I can't be bothered to help them.

This ad drives me nuts. Nothing but Instagram pictures and a description of how hip and awesome the sellers are. The price is hilarious too.

|
|
Is it rare because it's a 1984 van or because it's a Westfalia Vanagon or because it's 1984 Westfalia Vanagon?
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=1746835
Condition is listed as 1 - Excellent. Are the pictures from a different van then?
72K original Miles? Really?
**Edit** Just did a search in the classifieds and came up with 34 vans listed for sale as 1984s. |
