Thread: Hello, California from Switzerland

  1. #1

    Hello, Westfalia California from Switzerland

    Hi downunder guys and gals.

    New to this forum, I was just browsing on it and thought it could be cool to introduce myself a little. I'm a member of the french speaking dedicated forum T4Zone.info

    Owner of a 92 Westy California 2.5 Petrol and very happy with it. It's my third Westfalia van, the previous ones are there


    Speaking is one thing but I'm sure like in every dedicated forum that you wanna see some pics, so here they are


    That was in Tuscany-Italy in April of this year




    I've found a nice set of Tecnomagnesio Detroit wheels which fits nicely, don't they?

    Welcome to VWwA Zanza

    The Westies are beautiful and I think Maris (Green T4) will love the Friesen Green one

    The early T4 was not Friesian Green Ben. It has alot more blue in it.

    Anyone help with the colour? I have a brochure of the early one which may give the colour name, but it's burried in the spare room.

    G'day Zanza.

    I'm a snowboarder. if you ever want to come and have a holiday in Perth, we can maybe do a house swap sometime, and I can stay in yrs in Switzerland, provided its close to some snowy moutains of course.

    welcome to Australia, by the way!!

    Who knows, why not.... But I don't think I'll have sufficent cash to move for holidays in Australia in a near future (Calif was expensive, kid, school, etc...)

    Oh and by the way, I'm 3/4 an hour from Les Portes du Soleil, the biggest ski domain in the Alp (located in Swiss and France - you can pass from one country to the other with the skis on feet).



    On a different subject: I read here and there that all of you in Australia seems to usually give the distance and mileage of your cars in kilometers not miles, but your fuel usage in MPG
    It's a little bit confusing, what measure systems are you usually refering the most downunder ?
    I already know that your are RHD
