Cool car and video

I have never seen a old Saveiro.

What engine is it in them? The first thing I was thinking on was a 5 cylinder vag machine. Like the old passat.

The old one look so simular to the Fiat Fiorino Pickup (also made in Brazil)



I think those early Salveiros were based on the american FOX

In Brasil (and also in Asia now) VW is known for building new cars with a lot of parts of various old ones

No waste ! ( only profit )
