Do you know something that the rest of the world doesn’t or is this one of those #justVWthings outsiders wouldn’t understand?

On the topic, I’m still upset we never got a V12 TDI R8 :(

Good pick, I will add it, what year is that

That’s the gas 2.1l under there.
Syncro Vanagons weren’t introduced until the 1986 model year, and the diesel was only offered in 1982 in the US.
Doesn’t mean Diesel Syncros aren’t cool.. you just had to make one yourself.

You could get the Volkswagen Taro with a diesel.

2008. And apparently the only v12 diesel passenger car.

I imagine that has the acceleration of a sloth on Quaaludes.

When I saw that pic I lol’d, I’ve heard the diesel in a vanagon called a lot of things, but never ‘best’..

I didn’t catch that one. I don’t remember them making a Type3 (or any rear engined car) with a diesel.

I’m a total Vanagon fanboy and owner, but factory 1.6L diesel Vanagons are awful. They literally have 48hp. The engine can barely move a Rabbit, and when new the Vanagon diesels here often blew up on their way home from the dealership, having never made it up the hill out of town. 1.9L TDI swapped Vanagons, however... those are fantastic.
