Hi. Good to meet you all. We have agreed to buy a superb T5 Beach from a lovely couple and can‘t wait to collect it next week. Adventures with the kids await. I am hoping to get hold of a secondhand VW 4-bike rack too so we can all take our bikes with us too. I’ll post some pics as soon as I have the van back home.

Thanks! I’d welcome any recommendations for an independent VW servicing specialist in Buckinghamshire/Hertfordshire as I need to get cambelt and water pump done and a service.

I used VW Revolution in great Missenden for my cam belt & water pump , following a recommendation from @Velma's Dad

my experience was good (a lot cheaper than VW main dealer = about £400 cheaper ! )

We all know that feeling and from my point of view, after three Cali's over 20 years, the excitemnt never wears off.

I got back from three weeks in Italy etc two days ago and I want to go off again very soon.

Having a great time with the Beach. Have realised I do need a bike rack as bikes inside do take up a lot of space. Does anyone have a VW 4 bike rack for a T5 they might like to sell as new ones seem very expensive. I am based in Bucks. Thanks for all the keep and the great welcome.
