eLMeR ◊ 2015-10-21 23:28	@ rjluna2: it has the 1974+ roof opening too. @ Gamer: Car means coach / bus in French. This said, your information is truncated: as camper, the sales name of this version was Camping-car. And as for its US and Canadian cousins Campmobiles, there is no mention of the Westfalia trim in the brochure. -- Last edit: 2015-10-21 23:55:20

And it is even more a disservice to you when you transmit this information without understanding the way it was really used... The Car name, with the meaning explained in my previous comment, seems indeed to have been used for some early T2 models, but only for the Combi (French version of Kombi, of course ) when provided with rear bench seats. As said here (fr): Quote Car VW: same as Combi, but with rear bench seats included in the base price. Additional heater ducts and connexion to the ventilation system. More luxurious trim. Next step: see how long this name was used, as it's unknown even to T2 owners I know
