The Appeal
Ever since its very first rear-engined Type 2s of the 1950s, Volkswagen has known a thing or two about building great vans. Practically all eras of VW van are immensely desirable and the T6 is no exception. Ideal for trade or leisure applications, these vans are supremely usable, so we're delighted to bring to market this lovely 2016 example.
The vendor bought the van during the Covid pandemic with the intention of turning it into a camper van. Side windows were newly installed for that purpose, although that's where the project paused. That leaves it up to the next owner to decide which way to go with this versatile commercial. The vendor is an engineer, so has carried out their own maintenance, which recently entailed the replacement of the timing belt. Complete with an advisory-free MOT, this T6 is ready to go.
