T6.1 Coast 150
Someone once said: patience, he will come. Well: today, completely unexpectedly, a call from the dealer: our coast has been delivered. It took me by surprise and I thought: so yes, they are still being delivered… I am very happy and went to the dealer immediately after my work shift. There it was: in the right colour and not yet ready to be handed over, but man, is it beautiful in all its simplicity.
So on Sunday we leave for the last time on a trip with our old faithful T4 westfalia bus. Then arrange all paperwork and of course pay because that money has been in that account long enough (Ordered end of August 2020).
The dealer takes care of a wash layer and the tires will be changed with Michelin CrossClimat (maybe still waiting for delivery of those but hey, there are tires under it, we can already drive). For the rims I have a plan… The bike rack on and small things like the little hubcaps and then somewhere at the end of week 16 the California will take the place of the Opel grandland. I took some pre delivery pictures.

Oh, we are going to the UK on sunday with the eurotunnel; first time with us. Previously always by ferry.

Lovely. That colour and the steel wheels give it a great look. Yeah, wheel caps will complete it.

Enjoy the adventures! :thumb
 
Made up for you. Congratulations. August 2020!!!!! Wow, the patience of a saint.
 
Congrats on the new arrival. This gives me hope my LHD is also imminent.

Thanks. This news really fell out of the sky for us; My fingers are crossed for you.

Thank you, I wanted to achieve a bit of the look of the past: ascot grey does this for me and the rims: they are there because to be honest I didn't quite find my way with what Volkswagen offers. I already have a plan for the steel rims. And maybe these will later be replaced by genre Blach Rhino Wheels.

Thanks, it was indeed a long wait and I didn't even have any hope of getting it delivered before the summer.

Congratulations! Enjoy and have fun!
 
Congratulations, now you're going to have to make some serious plans for the coming months and summer! :)
 
Enjoy! Love the colour... worth the wait.
Hope mine isn't too far behind. Those wheels are my faves, I'm hoping it arrives with them but I suspect it's coming with the black steelies and plastic covers...

thanks. This is true: in fact, we've already made plans; only we thought that these would still be carried out with our T4 westfalia: in May a ‘get to know eachother’ extended weekend with the T6.1 and the summer is Alps-Île de Noirmoutier-a lot of touring around France.

Thank you; I am also a fan of the steel rims. It became these steel ones because we had to go to 17 inch due to bigger brakes due to the 5th seat (and I couldn’t find my taste in what they offered). Otherwise, it was also the standard 16-inch steel rims with decorative caps.
 
Hope you enjoy many adventures - looks great enjoy it
