Westy Joker 2S........what does the "S" mean?

Post by theboycalledleaf »

Does anyone have any idea what the 2S on the door decal means?

It's a pop top not a hi top, so I'd always assumed it was a joker 1 (it's an '83). So whilst it may well be a joker 2................what does the "S" stand for???

It's a 1.6D so I tend to doubt it stands for SPORT!! :lol:
No rude answers please; unless they're funny. :)

Any ideas

Never seen it, can you post a picture up? Not forgetting they`re just stickers, people stick all sorts on their `vans.
Keep it real.

It did cross my mind that it's not "2S" but actually "25".
But then again as a German LHD import, bricks were known as T3's in the farterland, not T25 as the original decals suggest.

Maybe it's a 25th anniverseray edition?
Afaik, Westfalia started fitting out VW Transporters in the late 50's ...83 - 25 = 58 ...possible ...

Interesting..........

Do you think it has special edition features that I'm yet to discover?
I'd go for an ejector seat.......or an optic over the rock and roll for a good single malt!!

I haven't got the foggiest ...don't even know if this sticker is genuine or if my calculation is correct, for that matter ...nothing but a stab in the dark

Looks like a piece of stuck-on squiggle. Not part of the Joker decal anyway.

I'll keep digging.
The colour match and typeset on the decal is too good to be just a "stuck on squiggle". Plus it's positioned perfectly from side to side and not just bodged on like the old gti and turbo stickers you'd find on hillman avengers from the 70's.
Thanks
