Topics covered include: the background story 1949-1990; design concept to production in the 1980s; full analysis of the T4's specifications; face-lifted Caravelles and Multivans from 1996 onwards; petrol- and diesel-aspirated engines including the VR6, V6 and 2.5 litre TDI; the T4 story in the USA - the Euro Van and finally camping conversions. The complete story of the Volkswagen T4, produced between 1990 and 2003 and the first book in the English language to have been written, illustrated and published solely about the T4, beautifully illustrated with 300 colour photographs - a sparkling mixture of archive and modern-day imagery.
