It's spelled Vanagon.

1984 was the first year of the watercooled engine.

But it was available as an 83 1/2 I believe.

Diesel or gas?

Watercooled diesel was available in 82 and 83.

I didn't know they made aircooled diesels.

...so Glenn, why didn't YOU say 82. The question was when the watercooled Vanagon first was available....

You said 84.

Gasoline, as Mike said, was available in 83...and 82 if you bought diesel (and yes, of course there were no aircooled diesels...duh).
