It all seemed so perfect in the VW executive suite. The new VW bus would be the people's utility van; an economical yet sporty way for white collar urban types to get away from the city on the weekends for some quality time with the fam. Pop the top, fire-up the hot plate and take in the great out-doors. But somehow, it all went wonderfully wrong.
