    Hi L&S. Glad to see you have seen the Westfalia K1. Can't wait to see your feature, as ours is currently being built in the factory and should be here early April :)

    I will be a full time RVer in the very near future in a Roadtrek 190. Prior to my retirement in 2015, after 38 years on the road as an OTR truck driver/owner operator, I am ready to do it AGAIN, only on MY terms this time!...no bosses, no time limits, no DOT cops...just me, gas stations, and, the open road! Also, thanks to YOU I have delved deeply back into video editing! Ever since I saw you jump into the box that once contained your microwave I have been beating Google up for new software! I cannot give you enough praise regarding your editing skills in words...but, your skills ARE definitely the very best I have ever seen in my 26 year computer operating experiences! I look so forward to your next video each time! God Bless, travel safe, and, be happy! Waving, for now, from Houston, Texas!

    You can get uprated hydraulic arms for the rear tailgate and also for pop tops, for when you have a roof rack. Just do a Google or Ebay search. I should think VW will supply them, but probably pretty pricey.

    • @ABusAndBeyond

    Really loved binge watching your vids, very well put together and great content.
    Apparently Ford based vans have major security issues as there are a lot of owners on UK motorhome facebook pages reporting them being stolen. We plumped for a Fiat based Chausson and are so glad that we did. I must say though that your van looks awesome. I also love the look of those Westfalia vans.

  • @craigroberts9021

    Ah, missed yer!! Was there Wednesday and Thursday. Will be looking forward to your review of the Westfalia. I was very impressed by them. Am still not any nearer deciding which van to get though..... Nothing quite fitting the bill for me yet :-(

    • @ABusAndBeyond
      @ABusAndBeyond  6 років тому

    Loved the Martini Racing Van, Lizzie in a former life when I wore cammo for a living, my camper van had tracks and a big gun on top of it lol. It was definitely over 3.5 tonnes. Great vid guys ( where did you hide my special show sticker for Saturday?) hopefully see you soon x big 👍

    • @ABusAndBeyond
      @ABusAndBeyond  6 років тому +2

      CaliforniaCamping Just back from the NEC and we found your sticker! Took us a while, and seemed to amuse a few people when I excitedly took a close-up picture of your sticker and not the Bailey van! Do we get a sticker, or have you got more in stock and I can go buy one?

    • @ABusAndBeyond
      @ABusAndBeyond  6 років тому

      Hi Joanne! If you post your photo up on our Facebook page then you’ll be entered into a competition to win a CCNews van sticker! But they are also available at www.californiacamping.co.uk 😊
      Excellent work finding it! We thought it was hidden well this year!

    In our area...people are restricted from using soft pop tops etc for camping in places like Yellowstone and Glacier because of the grizzlies....and other bears..... all food etc has to be in bear proof containers and bears just rip open those campers... new airstreams are spendy even in the states...but older ones are pretty affordable

  • @krisdenton3128
    @krisdenton3128 6 років тому +1

    I found you guys just last night and I'm enjoying your videos (I'm slowly working my way through them all), but my question is, we are a family of five with 2 almost teens and a 4 year old so is there any campers in the california/terrier size that would be best suited for our family, we will be using it as a daily driver and day trips with the occasional camping, any help would be great full, thanks for any help and keep up the good work

    • @ABusAndBeyond
      @ABusAndBeyond  6 років тому +1

      Kris D Maybe a California with an awning you can also sleep in? A family of 5 may be tricky with just a Cali. There certainly are many options out there to choose from though. Best advice would be to go to a show like this with an open mind and look at what might work for you.

    • @krisdenton3128
      @krisdenton3128 6 років тому +1

      CaliforniaCamping I've decided to go for a slightly bigger vw it comes in the form of the crafter, so watch this space this time next year I could be rolling up by the side of you asking for Bentleys autograph haha

    • @ABusAndBeyond
      @ABusAndBeyond  6 років тому +1

      Good choice! Can’t wait to see it! 😊

  • @stevenmcfarlane8831

    @MC50000 6 років тому +1

    Wow what a great show! Wish I had gone but I’m off to the NEC in March for the photography show so thought it a bit greedy to go to both, regretting that decision now 🙀 question for you, now that you have had your Cali’ for a while, if you were about to buy a VW camper now would you stick with the Cali’ ocean or would you buy a converted van such as the Westfalia? I’m interested to know as I’m so not sure what to do myself now as some of the conversions are really nice, especially in your video here. I’m also thinking that a converted van might be better for my dog as they appear to have more leg room when the bed is down as they generally are not the sliding variety. Keep up the great work, your videos are going from strength to strength. Really enjoying watching them 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙏🙏🙏

    • @ABusAndBeyond
      @ABusAndBeyond  6 років тому

      moira chalmers We love our Cali but you definitely need to do what’s right for you! There are long wheel base vans which certainly have more room for dogs and people which may be preferable for you? 😊

    • @quentinsf
      @quentinsf 6 років тому +1

      We're thinking of getting a Cali, but I was impressed at the way the bed folds forward on the Bilbo's Celex, and how much floor space there still is even on the SWB version. There's also lots of space under the front bit of the bed, which our spaniel would love...

      @screwfixdirect 6 років тому +1

      It sure is and surprisingly sturdy, so you can actually use it! Let's down to help make part of the 'double' bed. Also opens up to one very large table, unheard of in other T6's. So good in fact we ordered one at Dusseldorf, with delivery finally taking place in April :)

    Lets agree; ‘Cool’ doesn’t solve anything. I love your channel but can show descriptions such as cool don’t tell me much beyond that you have been dazzled by some flashy feature. I.e. the upper cabinets that have long latches but descend into a smallish cabinet that won’t hold a tin of biscuits. Why did you think they were ‘cool?’
