1952 VW Transporter Microbus

1952 Microbus

What is your favourite VW of all time?

After the launch of the Panelvan, which was designed to carry goods, it became obvious that "people carriers" would be needed in the Type 2 range. The Kombi and Microbus arrived in June 1950 as derivatives of the Panelvan with three windows on each side. The Kombi (Type 23) was the more basic version of the two vehicles having removable seats in the load area, in effect a dual-purpose people/cargo carrier. The Microbus (Type 22) had fixed seats, a better standard of interior trim and two-tone paintwork.
