My next door neighbour has just completely out of the blue bought a T25. Pictures look great, but MOT history is a bit scary. Hopefully the missing 2 years has been for a decent resto. Watch this space!
One of me mates called at my house and asked me if I knew anything about a bay parked in a funny place in the village, the next day a man called who had just moved in and had seen my bay on the drive. He said it had broken down and the recovery put it there as the couldnt get it up his drive. he wanted to know if I knew a good local garage. I went and got it running for him. A VW"specialist" had zip tied a relay to the starter as a hot start, it was exposed and full of brown water. 3 in the village now!!
We have a full set a early, cross over and late in my road (20 houses) then a Brazilian one just down the road
There’s a bay, 3 T25s, a T5, a T6 California and a Porche 914 in the street now, and the guy behind has a lovely split that is very rarely seen in action. All the rest get used though.
Including mine our village has a couple of lates, an early, at least 2 T25s, a Porsche 914 and a few T4/5/6 including our next door neighbour. Oh and there's a couple of Beetles too
Wasn’t there a little Britain sketch about being the only bay in the village? Anyone’s bus called Myfanwy?
In our village in total we have 3 bays 1 split 3 T4s and 3 porsche's a 911 and 2 of the new all electric ones, so they probably dont count, but still not bad for less than 50 houses.
Had a look this afternoon. The advert said it has a heater. Unless it’s the engine heating its bloody well hidden. It says it has a leisure battery. Um, can’t find one. It’s mainly solid but will need some work where the windows have been cut in at some point and the bottom of the slider is ropey. It’s got a random selection of tyres on it too, and the bottom 8” has been painted in stone chip. Overall not a bad bus. Not sure I’d have gone for it though.
I love a T25. In my road we have a T2, T4 and a T5 dressed up to look like a T6. We own 2 out of the 3 (not the fake T6).
