Currently, there are far more Notches around in Europe than Squares.  The
Squares were the least common at the recent European Type 3 meeting - it is rare
to find tidy ones.  Even in the UK at VW shows, I often don't see another
Squareback, while there are probably 4 or 5 Notches, if not more.

What is the reason for this? The squares certainly did outsell the notches, but could it be because the square was in many cases bought as an alternative to the Transporter, and as such, led a harder life with more neglect owners?

I know of only two other type 3's in my district, one is a 68 Notch, somewhat cal look style, the other is a 72 Fastback, stock. It's been a few years since I last saw a Variant on the road here.
