Actually thats a common misconception that unfortunately the blogs are to blame for.

This project is 100% all VW and is way behind schedule

Great van Guy!
Are you now going to stock/sell other add-on parts?

Not sure, we have been asked by a few customers about suspension & proper offroad stuff (Seikel stuff) but not sure if there is enough market to support the logistics of supply ? Let me know if you have any good ideas though!

I always thought a Seikel suspension would be nice, but in the last three years I haven't had the time to put something like that to good use. I can still dream though.

What's the fuel consumption like Guy ?

I'm looking at getting a new TDi Caravelle early next year (same 4-Motion etc ...) with the Oettinger remap of course....

Hi Sharkie,

Not sure yet - its only done 300km's - hope to get some miles up in it soon!

Around town I get about 9.5 to 10 l/100 Kms. It's a bit lower on long criusing trips. I've done Adelaide to alice springs twice in the last couple of months, and got around 8.5 to 9 l/100 Kms. My advice is to forget about the diesel consumption, and just enjoy the ride

Well my friends form Sweden tell me their canopy is built for a Swedish issue tray, not the German one - and looking closely at their pictures, you can see the difference.

Looks like it will be a custom job now....
