Description
This 1975 left-hand drive Westfalia Helsinki is a true 1970s icon, finished in the unmistakable L90B Brilliant (Continental) Orange and presented as a complete, ready-to-enjoy festival setup. We sold this to one of our customers about 6 years ago, and before this it was lovingly owned for 19 years, it’s a well-sorted and characterful example that’s been thoughtfully maintained and upgraded along the way.
Powered by a strong 2. 0L Type 4 engine, the bus offers reliable performance and comfortable cruising, further enhanced by a recently upgraded front end from Red9 Design. With a current MOT running through to June 2026 and just three previous owners, it comes with a substantial history file full of receipts, reflecting years of careful ownership.
Inside, it retains all the charm you’d expect from a classic Westfalia, with the vibrant orange plaid interior running throughout. The layout includes a full-width rock and roll bed, cleverly designed storage with twin wardrobes, a sink, fold-down gas hob, and a fridge (recently replaced). The original-style details continue with the Westfalia swing-out table and the often-missing sink lid that doubles as a cab table.
Recent updates make it even more usable for modern trips, including a new leisure battery, charging system, plug-in battery chargers, and added USB charging points. A Propex heater ensures it’s comfortable year-round, while refreshed curtains and matching soft furnishings complete the interior beautifully.
Externally, it sits on EMPI 5-spoke wheels and comes equipped with a roll-out awning and rear bike rack, making it perfect for weekends away or longer adventures.
What really sets this bus apart is the matching teardrop trailer—fully kitted out with speakers, disco lights, and a head unit—ideal for carrying extra gear and creating the ultimate campsite setup wherever you go.
This is a fantastic opportunity to own a well-loved, highly usable Volkswagen Type 2 Bay Window that perfectly captures the spirit of the era, with the added benefit of sensible upgrades and a unique, show-ready presence.
A true head-turner with everything you need to drive away and enjoy.
