Well, maybe I was a little hasty... :(

Its okay James, take a deep breath.....make sure youve got your glasses(coke glass lens) on

Second paragraph...

-this syncro has 247 000 km on the clock but as mentioned almost the entire drive train has been replaced in the last 40 000km

Sadly yes, Syncro Westfalias are stoopid money.  You really have to be able to justify getting up all those old logging roads for a weekend away.  There are many, many late model Syncro Westfalias (89, 90, 91) gor for over $20,000 K USD.  It's nutso.  Stupid americans with deep pockets ruin everything  :P

i think that if he gets 12g's for that bus at least 11 of it should be spent on an english language and writing course so he can learn about the importance of periods, commas, and complete sentences. ;)
