^the 'pickup' Version is called 'Doka', for 'Doppelkabine', and quite frequent (or better: was).

My first longer travel after having my driving permit was a tour starting at Kassel, to La Ciotat at the mediterranean, along the Côte d'Azur St. Raphael, Rapallo, Monte Carlo, Ventimiglia down to Pisa, and then across Italy to Venice, and Grado. And then back to Germany, over the Alps.

All in a VW T2 bus .. driving was much fun, especially along those narrow coast roads, always harrassed by those Fiat 'Supermirafioris' ..

I later repeated the tour in a Triumph Spitfire 1500, my first own car. But the travel with the bus (converted to a camper Version) was much less stressing :)
