Well it’s minus 4 outside, but little wind.
despite having heating on low , it’s pretty toasty inside.
So far very impressed with 2 things:
- the insulation is doing a good job
- the heating is really progressive. By that I mean it can maintain a temp unlike my T5 and T25 with their heating systems (Webasco and Propex) which blast out hot air having you kick off the duvet, only for it to off-cycle and you freeze.
As an aside, the 4 Motion gave me a lot of confidence getting up here.

Thanks.Love it.
Incidentally did you have the WiFi router option fitted and if so does it work well?
Ok thanks but for your info the WiFi router option hotspot is reportedly x6 times stronger than the phoneThanks.
No WiFi router, seemed pointless when our phones have hotspots.
Thanks for the info. That’s a more interesting proposition then. By 6 x stronger is that for the reception/transmission of the 4G signal or the WiFi signal? When I travelled around the States I was always interested in the van mounted powered mobile phone antennas, which provided reception where a standard phone had no hope. There were lots of mixed reports about various products and I couldn’t work out which the best one was, and they were expensive, so I never went for it.Ok thanks but for your info the WiFi router option hotspot is reportedly x6 times stronger than the phone

Thanks the infoThe sales rep reply's something like this: " They did not explain the colors. It displays all insulated surfaces in wall and ceiling.
It may be that there are different materials in the walls and doors. Can also be so just to see the difference between what is wall and door. But all colored parts are insulation.
You also have about 4cm insulation in the floor, so the whole "cabin" is insulated to withstand winter use."
Thanks for that Rome, great information, shame the grey water tank is not insulated.The sales rep reply's something like this: " They did not explain the colors. It displays all insulated surfaces in wall and ceiling.

Hi has anyone looked behind the headliner, there’s no additional insulation on our van. Is it’s just us?Winter camping folks over on the German forum are pretty impressed with the insulation. A different guy who’s ripped out the cab area to fit a lithium battery under the right hand seat has applied insulation under the cab flooring, and the front door panels - so there’s one area for minor improvement
Is there anything like this for the T6 California?Picture from a sales rep training in Sweden.View attachment 54056
It’s hard to see what your phot is or its location.Hi has anyone looked behind the headliner, there’s no additional insulation on our van. Is it’s just us?
