Does it state Kombi on the V5 logbook?

Ladies / Gents

Please excuse me if this seems like a particularly stupid question but as I have just taken possession
of my very first VW Kombi ( or any VW for that matter ) straight from the dealer.
It states that looking at the V5 section

D5 Body Type : VAN/SIDE WINDOWS

I thought that it would mention somewhere that it was actually a Kombi on the V5.
Is this how the Kombi is defined on the V5?

Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.

Yep mine says van/ side windows

PV's with retro fitted windows can also be classified as Van with windows.

Chippie1, s9 your saying that yours a factory Kombi but it states Van/side windows on the V5?

Yes genuine factory kombi states Van/Side windows which I suppose it is really!
I suppose next one up would be the shuttle or carravelle not sure what they would say on v5 but bit more car like!

Van types.....

I thought Kombi vans came under the MPV category?

Yes, I get that panel vans can have side windows fitted but I specifically ordered a Kombi from the dealer and due to my unfamiliarity with the Transporters and VW in general, I expected the V5 to say Kombi so that was why I asked the question as to what should be on the V5

Thanks for the replies, feeling a little more relaxed now.
Can’t go off to bed overthinking things.

I am now aware that this has actually been asked before, I did use the search function but have
obviously missed or misread the answers
