More Information

Reluctantly selling our awesome VW California Beach TDI, after an incredible summer tour of Europe with the kids. We are moving abroad and unfortunately cannot take it with us.
It is in immaculate condition and comes with many VW factory built extras.
This particular Beach comes with a professional slimline kitchen unit with sink, twin hob, water supply, storage etc with a clip on sliding table. The whole unit is removable if desired for more space. We liked this layout as the slimline kitchen does not extend all the way to the rear so allows plenty of elbow/shoulder/headroom when bed is in use.
It also has the T6.1 fully opening canvas, this was factory fitted by VW as part of the common roof warranty work offered on all Californias. Most Beach models except the most recent did not even have the front window and the fully opening front (please see pictures).
Another excellent VW factory fitted feature is the Eberspacher underfloor heater, with integrated control panel in cab with timer. Perfect for pre-warming the van in the mornings or evenings. This was a rare option on Beach models and really transforms the van in to a usable all year round vehicle.

As well as the heater it has a very useful MCU electric hook up for 240v electricity for use at campsites to run mains appliances as required. It has all the other useful official/genuine VW factory build California/Beach built in features - ie removable table in the sliding door, outdoor chairs in the tailgate, swivelling captain's chairs with armrests, numerous lights, built in black out blinds, privacy glass etc. There are the usual VW features and many nice to have extras including parking sensors, cruise control, tow bar with electrics etc.

This is the 118 bhp BlueMotion model, which in our experience is a superb and very economical to run option, with none of the well known issues associated with in particular the higher power twin turbo models. The manual gearbox is very slick and easy to use again with no potential DSG issues to worry about. It has no problem with two adults and two children and full with camping gear up and down the highest Alpine passes or cruising on the Autoroute while still being compact enough to access the tiniest towns. It is very economical at over 40 mpg as our average in all round use. The current MOT runs until June 2025 with the next oil change service not due until July 2025

It’s in really excellent condition with no dents, scrapes, parking dings - just the usual very minor stone chips and very light scuffs as expected on any used car/camper. It comes with a fold away bike rack too. The interior seats are in excellent condition always being covered in use.
There is a superb folder of paperwork to go with the Beach, covering past MOT’s, service history including cambelt/tensioner/waterpump at 77,000 miles in May 2021, the complete roof fabric and VW fix in August 2020. The roof has the addition of the well known ‘Bellows Bungee’ to ensure the canvas stays out of the mechanism when closing hence the new roof fabric is still perfect.
