- While travelling this year we had the pleasure of joining an amazing Mercedes Sprinter 4x4. We thought it would be the perfect opportunity to see if our lifted 2wd VW T25 T3 Vanagon (using our own produced spring lift spacers and a basic none turbo diesel engine!) would keep up with a fully equipped overland spec 4x4 Sprinter.
We think our basic low powered VW did pretty well considering and just about kept up with the awesome 4x4 Sprinter.

What a cracking little van can’t fault it
It sure has some go in it.

J'imagine que le poids réduit et la position arrière du moteur sur ses roues de traction améliorent grandement la traction dans ces cas de figure. ? 😮
Qu'en pensez-vous ?
Le WC synchro est un outil de voyage extraordinaire. 😅
Juste un bémol, sa sécurité en cas de choc frontal est quasiment nul. Il faut juste avoir de la chance dans ce cas-là....😢
C'est clair qu'il reste l'un des emblèmes pour les voyages et le camping, encore davantage avec son toit ouvrant offrant ainsi 4 couchages, super pour une famille.
Un véhicule qui reste incroyable d"ingéniosité, de simplicité et de possibilités.
Jeune, j'ai rêvé s'en posséder un, un synchro camping avec toit ouvrant mais ma bourse ne fut jamais à la hauteur. A l"époque je ne suis contenté de minibus Ford Taunsus d'occasion, dont l'un échangé contre un appareil de photo reflex, le plaisir du troc!
J'ai roulé plus de 4 ans avec lui, tout vitré avec 2 lanterneaux,
Plus tard, en 1974, j"ai obté pour un Mercedes 407D avec lequel j'ai fait de nombreux grands voyages en Asie et en Europe.
Le WC synchro est donc resté dans mes rêves ....mais toujours présents.
Double kudos if you kill the music
Thank you for the kind comment.

VW Champion.
The underdog wins!

I mean, not exactly a 4x4 required road. My 2WD Vanagon got stuck in my FLAT driveway in the winter when one rear tire was on a frozen mud puddle. 😂
The Achilles' hee.

Exploring Portugal?

What are the wheels and tyres on your van please Jed?
@@karlyabasa We sell these 15” wheels on our web shop here, campervanculture.com/shop/vw-t25-t3-vanagon-15-steel-wheel/. The tyre size is 215/75/15.

Not surprised that it did quite well, they are good little vans and light compared to a big 4x4 sprinter.
I still somewhat regret selling mine some 10 years ago, I let it go to cheap 🥲
Of course now they are very expensive here so I could never afford a good one, but I do so miss that style of cap-over, sitting on top of the steering wheels gave so much room in them, and who cares about crash safety! 😆
Sounds like you need another one in your life.
Jed
Do you have positraction on your 2WD vanagon?
No,. All factory standard.

Is a T3 a van or is it a bus ?
@@AJ-qn6gd it is the van shape and model. Basically a VW Transporter made between 1980 and 1990 or there abouts.
@ I just put that because some people call the Transporter a van and some call them a bus, I have a T5 camper.
Pas besoin de 4x4 pour passer la
