Name also depends of the country where it is sold


I believe we could use the names used in its own country Germany. I believe there were 3 for the minivan T1 : Kleinbus, Kombi and Samba. The one pictured here is Samba because of the chrome, but I don't know the differences between the Kleinbus and Kombi, maybe the number of seats.
Also we should maybe split it model-year wise, the light indicators appeared and then changed in size, and the early model had a bigger engine door and no boot door, like here : i.pinimg.com/736x/b9/c2/36/b9c236f013f5431d56613933c33b610e.jpg

It was difficult to have good informations for the years. This is why i had do only one version
