Where are the kombi beaches

[BrianJ]

Nice to see some more happy owners.

Mine has now done 190,000km and still goes the same as when I bought it, its such and impressive van.

We will be doing a camping trip northwards through the centre of Australia first half of next year, I've only just fitted a oztrail mozzie and fly net under the side awning to try to keep the insects out.

The orange is still fully on ours, but the bonnet is all cracked and torn, but I leave it there for now as I like the uniqueness and originality of the beach model.

Hand high in the Air.....YES....YEs........I have one..... I recently purchased my first VW.... and its a 2008 Yellow Beach Kombi... with all accessories intact.. two beach embroidered chairs, magnetic sun shades for all the windows..netting above the rear compartment, luggage packs that hang from the interior.... its a wonderful, machine.... It has unbelievably only 40,00kms on it. Genuine. Two wheel drive, my partner and I have just begun a journey from Perth towards Melbourne.

Must be because we are in Australia that the photo is only available upside down...!

Unfortunately they didn't make any 4motion in AUTO before the DSG gearbox was used in 2010 as there wasn't a power output for the rear drive. I also wanted a 4WD one but settled for a 2WD AUTO.

LOL, I'll have to stand on my head. I like the yellow paint, we originally sat in one at Balina but couldn't afford it then, later we bought ours as a demo for a good price, but I would have loved the yellow one and named it 'bigbird'. Its a nice drive accross the Nullabore, we did it in our van in 2010, staying at free campsites along the way.

Hi Brian,

I've just bought a 2007 Beach with yellow marking.
I'm missing the curtains can you take photo of your curtains.
I have tracks in place.
I'm driving from Brisbane to Melbourne first week of march 2016

Hey Beach 70c,

Congrats on getting a Beach, they seem few and far between.

My wife and i first saw a brand new grey and orange one in 2007, up on the sunny coast and almost brought it, we should have, but ended up with a Hilux as our touring vehicle as they didn't have a 4motion model at the time.

Just a heads up, i received some Curtains from JustKampers for my T6 earlier in the week, and they appear to be pretty good for the coin, although you must likely don't need the rails, but the curtains are nice.

I only brought it up, incase you aren't making your own, it's hard to get any of the UK guys to send out Curtains, unless you freight forwards them.
