Club 80-90 Forums

Just going though some old files on my computer deleting stuff, came across a small text file.
No idea where I've copied it from, just thought it maybe of interest.

T3 syncro total: 43,468
including:
LHD: 41,360
RHD: 2,108
engines:
2.1l i (95 HP) 14,233
2.1l i (112 HP) 6,259
1.9l (78 HP) 6,641
1.6TD (70 HP) 16,335
Transporter
"Pritschenwagen" Pick-Up Single Cab (245) 1,787
"Doppelkabine" Pick-Up Double Cab (247) 6,849
"Kastenwagen" Van, panels (251) 5,848
"Kombi" Bus (253) 14,650
Caravelle Bus (255) 14,334
16" package: 2,138

those numbers makes 16's common compared to a rhd van,

unless it is one of the rhd 16's i surpose.

Be interested to know how many RHD twin slider syncros were made.

Can't be in huge numbers looking at that.

I would be interested to know how many "Pritschenwagen" Pick-Up Single Cab (245) 1,787 were RHD and 1.6TD

As per the original post

Would like to know more about my van, VIN and original german plate... Anyone has tried to find out having this?

Having a 14" / LDH / MV-motor / caravelle, I take comfort in the fact that spare parts are easier to find (and then, compared to aproximatly 1.3 million t25's that were built overall, every syncro is somewhat of a rare thing)

I find it interesting that the number of syncro work trucks (ie single/double cabs and panel vans = 14,484) is dwarfed by the number of syncro people carrier trucks (caravelles and kombis = 28984). Twice as many is a heavy skew, I wonder if this was intentional and marketed as such.

It would be interesting to see the British figures as I don't know if that split exists over here, not when looking at the make up of an average syncronauts outing.

If one were to take the figures above for body style and use a crude prorata distribution based on the total figures which show:
4.85% of syncros built were RHD, and
95.15% were LHD

In leiu of actual data, we could assume RHD figures in the region of:
Single cab pickup - 87
Double cab pickup - 332
Panel van - 284
Kombi bus - 710
Caravelle bus - 695

I wouldn't mind finding out how many genuine Westfalia Joker Syncro's are part of that list.

Me too

Only info I can add to the statistics is that only 36 single cab 16" syncros were built

I'm sure I read somewhere that only 250 Club Jokers were built.
