Last wedding of the year

Sent 2012 off in style today. We chauffeured Kirsty and her bridesmaids to the Faversham Brewery in the Karmann, unfortunately with the hood firmly up for the journey. Not the nicest of days but a beautiful bride and two stunning bridesmaids made up for it, hope you enjoyed the pink fizz! We wish you every happiness.

USA USA!!

Our Microbus was made in Germany in the Wolfsburg factory in 1965 and exported to the US for sale. Originally registered on January 1st 1966 in California it spent most of its life in the west cost sunshine. After being out of the sun and on English plates for 10 years, we got a new number plate pressed to remember her roots!

Flat 4

One for the grease monkeys out there, how many components can you name on this Aircooled engine?

Peep in

I can't help taking photos when walking past the bus. Peeping through the window at an interior that looks that good after nearly 47 years. That's German engineering for you!

That time of year again....

We've had the Microbus and Karman for about a year now and it's time for the insurance renewal. The nice lady at Peter Jones asked us for the mileage on the cars and I worked out we've done about 2,000 miles in each vehicle this year. That's 6,000 miles of Vdubbing.......Marvellous!
