Hi Team

Fantastic site keep up the great work!

Background:

Gidday Campers... man that sounded weird? I am not what you call a camping person or a big VeeDub nut so the question has been asked why a VW California?

We are a family of 4‚ our kiddies are aged 3 and 5... so what better way to spend time together as a unit than at the beach‚ school galas *groan* boot sales‚ picnics‚ camping and weekend escapes etc etc than in a vehicle I can use as my daily drive to the office‚ yet crosses over into many other aspects in our every day life.

The options with fridge‚ gas and beds on the move as built-in accessories‚ yet car like with the agility to be parallel parked and 3 point turn has made my evolution to a van from an HSV Senator 6.0L V8 a true functional style choice. I may add we took a couple of steps in VW Caravelle's to get to California land.

We purchased our VW California end of FEB 2008 and took possession of it in time for the NZ VW Nationals Easter Saturday 22nd March 08.

This event proved to be a great day out nice to connect with people passionate about life style/culture

The new California was purchased through Continental Cars VW NZ Commercial Sales Division and their Salesman Bradley Carrick facilitated a great deal and truly looked after the whole purchase process from the standard VW California through to what was finally delivered from my spec's list.
