Very new to VW Campers!

  1. I suggest you check out the van's recent mot history and make sure all the listed faults and advisories are looked at. The history shows the van has not been used much over recent years and faults in the body and steering and brakes are mentioned over and over.

    The van does look nice and I hope you get to enjoy it and use it more than it has been recently.
     
  2. Welcome aboard. nice looking bus :)
     
  3. someone else said that recently, they think it is a bit of a mongrel. Appears to have had some earlier panels welded in place!
     
  4. You are not the first to tell me that :) it has been heavily restored and by a place north of Coventry called Voodoo works I believe.Could have fitted the correct front! Oh well it is good and solid, not looking to have it swapped out too soon.
     
  5. What do you mean? the tinted windows perhaps? I have removed all but the rear ones.It came like that, looked a bit pimped! Not the style I was after. Now has curtains all round :)

  7. Didnt see this post until just now, I am 6 foot, it already has the full width bed so I have worked around that. I have made all units from scratch and pretty happy with it. Just the pop top to order now :)
