More Details & Pictures

VIN: WV2ZB0259MG010762

Overview: I am the second owner of the van and purchased it in March of 2003. It has been in no accidents, meticulously maintained and is ready for a cross country road trip at the drop of a hat. Over the course of my ownership the van has seen time as a daily driver but over the last three years has been predominantly used for road trips and the occasional errand once a week to get it out of the garage. Significant effort has been made to modernize the van, making it safer, more capable (specifically for camping and overland travel) and when practical giving it the comforts of a modern vehicle.
