VW Campervans

[TechSupp]

Ages ago someone posted (or even PM'd me!) up a link to a site of a company selling VW Campervans, now I want to look at it, cant find it anywhere! Anyone help. Done a search on the forum but turned up nothing.

I would like one of these also! Are they reliable? Is insurance cheap?

My parents have one, they are awesome!

 

Insurance is about £45 a month for theirs (they are both insured on it and have 25 years no claims), and they use it every summer. They use it to pull a caravan along and have the caravan for the facilities (fridge, toilet, oven/cooker etc) and storage and they use the campervan to sleep in and go touring if they park up the caravan at a camp site or something. I like it as it is surprisingly comfortable to sleep in.

I've got one (see pics) :-)

 

Ours costs less than £400 per year to insure, that includes full european breakdown cover. We've used ours plenty this year and she's been very reliable for us. She has the odd quirk, but then I think they all do :-) They don't half cost a fortune to maintain though!

 

We got ours on ebay :-)

Rings a bell... might have been me. You won't find the post 'cos all my old posts went up in smoke with my account. But that's a different story...

Bear in mind they cost a fortune to keep going. I sold mine last year.

Isn't going to be much help right now, but I've seen an add a number of times in the rear of Autotrader mag (maybe on the site too?) I get southern/thames valley but I imagine they'll advertise in all of them. In fact, why not have a nose on the AT site and filter for trade sellers. One of them is bound to make a career out of it

You missed a great VW show over the last couple of weekend where you could have stuck lucky with some contacts, there was the VW meet at Harewood house Leeds this weekend just gone and the previous one was VWNW at Tatton Park, certainly Tatton is a big meet for the VW Camper people and traders for them its really impressive how well they do.

 

You can find them online in various places, and enthusiast forums are a good place to look as well I find. Danbury Motor Caravans - Danbury Motorcaravans - WELCOME maybe a good one as well

Well Well Well, I work 2 mins from there and never knew it existed.

Do not buy a new Brazilian bay without reading a post i did on the vzi forum, they are not all they look underneath.

 

We are in the process of rebuilding a bay with oh dad. Will upload pics when it is back from the paint shop

Used to love the VW Campervan we had as a kid, though I dread to think how much it costs for Deisel these days, as I recall it was one heck of a guzzler and only did about 3 miles to the gallon!

Ours is frightening on the petrol, costs a fortune to go anywhere!

Thats the one! Thanks, meant to bookmark it but forgot! No definate plans at the moment to purchase just pipe dreams for me and the wife. Window shopping as it were.

If, like me, you have a delightful sense of the absurd, then you'll enjoy this:

Can you post the enlinkment? The search doesn't work for non-members.

[bondbill2k2]

go for a classic insurance policy and save laods, they are great but youll spend a fortune for a splitty, might get myself another <70s beetle later in the year as a project for next summer

Cut a long story short. Oh parents went to factory of above d c company, the shells have some rust already before they start, you get a 1.4 petrol engine only,.they cost a bomb and they don't let you test drive unless you book a weekday slot. For 30k you can get a nice top wacky split screen camper that will hold its value

Best place to look is VZI, dozens every day up for sale
