- In this video I give a full in depth tour of the 2003 volkswagen eurovan. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this van while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this van designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

Our family got one of these for a cross country trip in 2003, except ours was the camper edition (everything the same except the rear bucket seats face backwards with a fold up table between them and the bench seat; and the roof pops up to form a tent/bed. We were traveling with family who had an excursion. The VW has twice the space for both passengers and luggage. Engine is strong enough to burn rubber. The van weighs a lot and drives like a commercial truck. Gets 19-21 mpg. GREAT traveling
Best road trips of my life in a Westfalia Eurovan! It is the ultimate base-camp vehicle!
You summed up my childhood!!! :)
I'm so happy to finally own one. a 2001 with a lot of miles but well kept. Nice video..i'm learning a lot about it and i'm glad to find anything related to these unique vehicles. :)
Still own?
Omg!!! this car is very clean , it's in good shape , i love this car so much
A unique and a rare vehicle... It's like the most common van over here. Even the police use it.
+Argantonis Lucky want one badly but hard to find in the midwest of USA
+Brooklyn Forge
More like anywhere in the US lol i never seen these vans b4, only in videos from europe lol
I can send one from europe :)
Argantonis well, here in México there are lots of these eurovan and they are used as a public transport.
There's none of these over here.
I enjoy these showcase car videos Kyle. I hope you NEVER run out of cars to cover.
These are truly amazing! Very high quality and very reliable!
Nikola Martinis it’s because it’s German made bud
Sounds way better than a caravan
For some reason I want one now XD
ATARI800XLfan same
ATARI800XLfan 8iuu
I can send you one from europe :)
i can send you from europe. diesels also. TDI are very very good : 1.000.000km and over with 1 engine, never opened up. 450 and 500.000km is very regular normal km use.
one of my moms friends had and lived in one of these, they are really comfortable inside.
Been waiting to see this for a while! Great video as always Kyle!
Does the bk seats folds down as a bed
How the hell do you always get the best songs as soon as you turn the radio on wtf
Gets lucky I guess...
In Russia, Belarus, Ukraine and Poland this Van called T4 (Transporter). Excellent review so good car reviewer
That is probably the coolest sounding V6
Boston just adds that final touch XD
Wow from Jag to a Eurovan, what a jump. Kyle keeps life interesting haha
These were sold in America! Extremely underrated and rare vehicle
Really nice van. I like Volkswagens.
not gonna lie. this is up in my favorite cars. i love it, it reminds me of Europe. Cars like this and the Vauxhaull Vivaro are my favorites!
This model off VW the Transportr 4 the model was the best VW ever build. 2500cc TDI, consumes 7L /100km. and good roadcomfort and fast in corners.... Very good cars. And cheap. If you want T4's let me now.
I LOVE the Eurovan. I think it's the only van I wouldn't feel lame in, along with the Sprinter.
Very nice. You can really tell the different van culture in Europe than the U.S.
its quality here. this vans do over 1.000.000km.
I’m not a VW person but that is one nice and very rare van!
How much do you want off them. On every day i can buy one here.
love my Euro!
Patrick M which model do you have? Weekender, camper or regular?
good to hear some boston in the background! great vid, haven't seen one of these in a really long time (no boston pun intended lmao)
I saw a ton of these in Germany when we visited
and let's go out and check the exterior shall we? love it! hahaha.
The best van ever !
1.100.000km i now 1. Then he put a new head on it, now 1.400.000km, same block, never new pistons or crancshaft. There are many more go far behind 600.000km. Look at the VW T4 forum. from 1000 till 11.000€ or a camper a bit more. depends on engine and condition. Let me now if you want them. I live in Belgium. Look at my channel please.
Nice vid Kyle! =D (Even though it has been 2 years already.) This is indeed a rare find! =D
These vans are AWESOME!!!!!!!!
1.100.000km i now 1. Then he put a new head on it, now 1.400.000km, same block, never new pistons or crancshaft. There are many more go far behind 600.000km.

it's not a bad Van... pretty nice. Something we must see something different and not only Chevy's or Ford's on the road... and this van is the solution. U have a good 6Cyl. Much spacious, good rims, still good interriors with speakers and good confortable seats so it is not bad at all. Good to rent... that's sure.
Great find Kyle! I've always love those vans because of the style of them. :)
There is a tuning company ''ProjektZwo'' in the Germany, which making a ''chip-and-body'' tuning for this van :) They are really fast .
Boston FTW! Interesting van.
Once again never a bad song on that rock station u always have on!:)
NICE FRONT WHEEL DRIVE VAN! FWD A PLUS!!! CLEAN! IFI IT WERE DIESEL I WOULD BE CALLING, AND JUMPING ON A JET!
Idk why, but this reminds me of my dad's 02 Passat wagon
Very nice job and nicely layed out
rare in the US, here in the UK they're everywhere! It's called the T4 (Transporter 4)
Are these reliable?
@@antonioc2017 they're pretty reliable, as long as you don't get one that has problems. However, because they're aging, they're starting to rust and bits in the engine bay tend to start to go. It's hit or miss really.
If you look at 5:42 you can clearly see a button for CD, and the skip track buttons. Most likely there is a CD changer somewhere in the vehicle, probably in one of those compartments in the back that Kyle did not open.
under the seat.
i was waiting for this video
Can you please do a vw type 2 bus like filmore in cars
In the Europe these vans with a turbodiesel engine are very popular.
@RoBinchoeet, that's AN ''Caravella'' on a video. ''Transporter'' is a delivery van without glasses and passenger's seats inside.
Man what a restrictive exhaust on those Eurovans. I almost didn't recognize it was truly a VR6. Even the factory GTI VR6 of the same year sounds IMMENSELY more aggressive.
+Paul Denney would probably put aftermarket one on myself.
+Brooklyn Forge Oh absolutely
Paul Denney really
@CamaroGuy10
It´s a cassette player with wiring for a CD changer (which was an option).
Beautiful
I had one. The kids called it 'Hitlers lunch bucket'..... We loved it.
I just looked at the latest iteration of this, called the "Multivan." I wish VW would bring that over to replace the Routan, which is just a re-skinned Dodge Caravan. The Multivan has Euro flair and a nice compact/efficient design.
What the Fuck never heard of an Eurovan... I love the T4 itself ;)
I like the Tahoe next to it.
There's one that lives down here in Savannah... I see it every now and then

nice find kyle!
@Carnut91 I agree. I love the 70s 80s european boxy, "volvo" look of eurovans.

so cute i want one
2003? wow!
Ja Markis Daniels y
nice engine sound
the 1990-2003 Volkswagen Eurovan was assembled in
Hannover, Germany
Hi, I'm a fan of your channel a few weeks ago and your videos are very good. I know it's difficult, but can you do some other video from another Ferrari or some other supercar?
Greetings from Argentina and sorry for my English jaja
we have one in PH it is called Caravelle
Jungyeon Oppa are they popular in PH. I’m half Filipino and love the older VW 86-91 Vanagon
Most stock vans don't go 160 mph. This is one massive van.
@TheO496 they have been sold in the states since the mid 90s, i remember when they imported them here.
I agree with game2heart's comment. It's only a cassette deck....no CD player spotted. ;)
its under the seat.
@MegaPanos1992 Transporter is generally the cargovan, while the Caravelle is the bus (can carry a lot of people) and the minivan is what would be the closest to this.
I love VW vans, could you find a Vanagon or Type 2?
I would buy it because it's something you don't see all the time
Cool I saw one in Edmonton,Alberta, Canada
1.100.000km i now 1. Then he put a new head on it, now 1.400.000km, same block, never new pistons or crancshaft. There are many more go far behind 600.000km.

If your local VW dealer has a good history, they might still have one of these as a costomer shuttle. I know in the toronto area we have one.
The wrost on this t4 is the engine type and gearbox type. A 2.5 diesel is much butter with Manuel than this t4. Rest of the van is very nice. I like the interior. Much better than in Germany. More quality.
I'd take this over the common minivan anyday
@AndreyPurtov
With this engine it would go 200 km/h without any problem. I drove VW T5 2.5 TDI, with has similar shape to T4 and I maxed it to 200 km/h on motorway.
no sweet child of mine in this one?, btw nice ride
@olsvoll93
Actually in France, this version's called Caravelle !
Renault (a French car company!) had a car called Caravelle in the '60s! That name was also used on a Plymouth from 1985 to 1989.
@gardmans1 well not directly free. is paid by taxes Eh?, but thats cool whats your opinion on the a5?, ive heard mixed things about it. the a8 is the one i really want lol. here soon i may realise this goal
You are deffintley right! I am in Germany they have like THOUSANDS!!!!
Aber nicht mit dem V6 ^^
I wish VW still makes these van and sell them to America, Id buy me one and drive it from Phoenix all the way to Florida and back. this van has diesel engine which runs forever and it a great campber van and family fan if you want a bigger van like these.
can you do the Kia Sorento
btw if u get in Europe it's cheaper and the name of the van changes to Volkswagen Transporter , im picking up a 2003 Peugeot Boxer on wednesday for 6000 euros and it has 160,000 kms in it.This eurovans are great they never let u down , they can go up to 500,000 kms + , about 200,000 miles or more i think.So if u are thinking of getting one do it but be careful because this vans sometimes have been , well a very good use over the years and might give problems in a near future , so be careful
more then 1.000.000km is no problem. The pars are cheap, easy to repair. lots off seond hand parts also. Best car ever. from 1000 till 11.000€ or a camper a bit more. depends on engine and condition. Let me now if you want them. I live in Belgium. Look at my channel please.
This van reminds me of the Chevy Astro and the GMC Safari
@TheO496 Just looked the van up on wikipedia and learned that this is the T4 Transporter model Kyle did, which succeeded the T2 one. I've seen a lot of those before, including a few of the old ones! Unfortunately though we don't have the T5 model here. :/ But hope you enjoy seeing them on the roads in Germany! :) We'll get a VW van here eventually, haha!
This the transporter from VW, the number following is the model. They go from 1 to 7 now. The T4 was know for safety, comfort, economics, durability. Price quality the best Transporter.
Hey, Kyle, can you do a 2011 Ford Explorer Limited? GrandPrixGTP02 already has one on his channel.
Shame we're not gonna see that white Genesis anymore. Nice video as always, though.
Okay. We have different Hiace here in Europe.. But its not sold anymore here because of the pollution stantards. Weve had in my family both Hiace and VW Transporter. Both were powerful diesels (75-90 hp)...
Momentinmuunnin which was more reliable? Hi ace or VW?
Greatness.
kyle when video started did you say 90047 imles? maybe i misheard you. anyways. ive noticed recently youve been telling thei size of the fuel tank. you used to do this sometimes. btu not always. much appreciated. gives us some idea of fillup costs. anyways my friend, keep up the good work
These are somewhat rare in Canada. I only see maybe 1 every 2 weeks
@TheO496 You don't even have to spend too much time in Europe, to be aware how common these utilitarian 'box-on-wheels' are there. It's enough to be on transit in any major European airport, while wait for your next plane to fly somewhere else.
@Caffiend160 , not MP/H. It's in KM/H, check up your personal eye-vision :)
@TravisCyprien
VW still make those vans (a newer generation of course), they just don´t export them to USA anymore because of the slow sales compared to European countries
@iecanonfire also btw in the usa ford trucks are the most common mostly 2009-2011 were i live in northern Virginia near D.C. next to that would be commuting vehicles such as toyotas and chevy compacts that get good mileage so its not costly to go to & from work :)
The VR6 engine has an awesome sound, but it's made to be in a sports car like the Corrado it was made for. This is a car that's supposed to have a diesel in it, great MPG and torque.
This isn't an MPV (multi purpose) which is what we in Europe call minivans. I think Espace/Odysse like cars should be called MPVs and "small vans" like this Eurovan should be called minivans, makes more sense than putting this in the same class as other MPVs when it's so different.
@gardmans1 ive spent alot of time there. alot of the spellings and such have rubbed off on me. im not canadian btw. yet ;). the a8 with that diesel to me kicks arse. an ddiesels tend to last for ages as well. one thing i dont get, is i see alof of the audis with problems. usually electrical. and sometimes fires. many times tho this could be blamed on maintenance issues ( or lack thereof)
that's a nice bird poop sticker on the liftgate
These were the cars hopeless family dads drove in Europe in the 90's.... I mean, they were EVERYWHERE
@toyota4life94 Well, after hearing the story of your first 4Runner, I was expecting something like that to happen. Leather seats is a nice touch, the comfort in those almost rivals my Caddy.
VW Transporter here in the UK
@NadrianATRS thats a better interior than most american cars had in 2003
What's the Code of the Paint? LC6U? Greetings ✌
hey....can you tour us in the 2011 Dodge Avenger V6? I'm quite interested in it :)
2003 Volkswagen Eurovan GLS, 94,047 miles
can you tour that white f150 with black hood?
@game2heart It says CD on the faceplate if you look closely... But I don't actually see a slot. I'm sure its there somewhere.
its under the seat, 6cd player. Its a GRundig.
