The Appeal

Classics are all about adventure, nostalgia, shared experiences and possibility and no vehicle quite captures all of that like Volkswagen’s bay window T2. These later Kombi vans have bigger engines and improved comfort and usability than the earlier ‘splittie.’

This 1973 camper is a chance to discover what all the fuss is about. It is a desirable RHD UK-market example in a popular colour combination. It presents well and is nicely detailed, with white Fuchs-style alloys, a slightly lower suspension, and chrome headlamp shrouds. Inside, the cabin is well kept and wood-trimmed. There are a few points to note in the photos but it forms a good basis for camping adventures.
