Barry is right, they can't be registered in Australia as they don't meet our ADRs.
They are not German, they are made in Brazil. They are imported to the UK and converted to campers by the Danbury camper company. They offer a basic
LHD model, or you can pay extra for a RHD conversion. However the LHD body shell means that the sliding side door remains on the right-hand side.
They don't have a 2.1-litre engine, as VW discontinued that motor in 1993 and no longer makes flat engines. They have a 1.4-litre in-line engine from
the VW Polo/Gol. It is a Brazilian 'Flex Fuel' motor that can run on any ethanol mix from E10 to E100.
