TIL vw mexico was still making these up until 2013.
@smellsofbikes
The original ones were rear-engined but the new(ish) Mexican (and Brazilian) ones are front-engined...
@ddlyh @smellsofbikes AFAIK Brasil never had a front-engine Kombi, the later models only had a radiator in the front but the engine was still in the back. can't vouch for Mexico models personally
@ddlyh @smellsofbikes from 2006 the Kombi in Brasil had a 1.4L engine from the Fox/Polo fitted in the same place as the original, but with a new water cooling system (and stayed this way until the last models in 2013). before this, it was the same as anywhere else.
i looked it up and apparently Indonesia was the one with a front-engine "Kombi" called Mitra
@mavica_again @ddlyh I've spent part of the evening reading about the rear suspension variants in the different generations of type 2s. So many changes
