With Vanagons of all types commanding some very serious prices these days, those looking for economical ways to traverse the continent and sleep in their cars would be wise to consider the lesser-loved Eurovan. Today’s is an early model with a the classic 2.5l inline-5 and a rare 5-speed manual. It’s only had one owner and has covered just over 80k miles in its two decades, making it a great choice for owner #2 who wants to travel in comfort and isn’t too worried about the Vanagon mystique. It’s a comprehensive Eurovan package that combines nice early-model simplicity with world-traveling capability.

I am definitely a Vanagon fan, but the Eurovan could easily be made to look much cooler than its frumpy reputation indicates. Low miles and a stick are big pluses, and the interior looks very inviting. It’s just not the most exciting traveler choice, but if the price can stay under $15k, the excitement starts to build.
