Watched a New TV Show on ABC on Sunday night..
called Sarangoon Road... in Singapore in 1956..

Main character drove a very early Kombi two tone with windows and very very shiny.. The Big VW emblem was chromed as was the safari front windows [or stainless steel]..
They didn't show any inside shots... only arriving in it..
[and letting the clutch out before the engine had stopped.. lol ]

Show will be back on next sunday night..

here's the first episode from the week before, click on it then click continue window.
it shows from 4 minutes in, very nice looking pg/sg & the show is pretty good too, just get a glimpse of a buggy as the main actor runs to the split.
there is glimpses of the split throughout the show as its the main vehicle in this show.
