thread_title: Cleanup?

message: Edit for incorrect info: this article has nothing to do with the type 2 or type 3 vw. A type 2 vw is the bus up until the mid 1970's and the type 3 vw is a squareback, fastback and notchback. The bus from the mid 1970's up was then the type 4 on into the vanagon. This article has good info on the vanagon the author just has no clue on which type is what. -- 66.151.63.2 on the page.
:The generations of Volkswagen Bus and Volkswagen Transporter are called T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5.  That's where the T3 in the title come from, not from the Volkswagen Type 3 that is a completely different car. 
:I have in several places seen this T3 generation be called Type 2. And it is a natural successor of the T1 and T2 generations of the Volkswagen Type 2. I have even in some occations seen the T4 and the T5 generations be called Type 2. --Boivie 06:37, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Volkswagen Type 4 is also a completely different car. But the engine from Type 4 was used in the bus from 1972. --Boivie 08:27, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

text: A 60bph 1600 was the standard engine in the Type 2 from 1971 to 1983, at least in the UK. 81.96.244.255 (talk) 11:41, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: still in production

message: The current article is a bit US-centric. For example, the T25 was introduced to the UK in late 1979 rather than 1980 and available in a slew of different models (pickups, buses and the numerous motorcaravan conversions), which are not really represented here. I've added to the existing information on engines, but I think there needs to be some detail on the various versions produced internationally (specifically Brazil and South Africa where VW factories are still in production). 81.96.244.255 (talk) 12:02, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: More international info

message: Type 2 had truck models as well, which aren't mentioned once on the page. I don't at this point know how to edit a wiki page up to wikipedia standards, but a google search of volkswagen truck history turned up this http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C90826/. If no one gets to this soon i'll stop being lazy and do some research and update the page. Milky the brown cow (talk) 06:11, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: T25 is a British colloquialism and is utterly invalid. T stands for transporter, not type. So it is a Type 2... there are subtypes, and all T3s are Type 25, with subsubtypes eg 25x.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.80.123.4 (talk) 20:04, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Does the VW 2.5i Kombi/Caravelle/Microbus come in the old body shape models?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.208.40.36 (talk) 18:22, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

message: Who was the designer of the vehicle? The shape, lines, etc are all very distinctive, did this person design anything else? 82.27.76.223 (talk) 01:37, 6 February 2023 (UTC)
