Usually the reqest is for pictures of owners new vans, you've been one step ahead and providing a full portfolio, well done.
Is the Bulli badge an option?

Nope, just some outrageous 'badge engineering' by myself.....

Picked a set up from the owners club shop

So, following on from Carpets from the excellent forum shop, my next mad plan was seat covers.

I was looking for something very specific, both classic VW but also to compliment the red decals which contrast the black paintwork.....

This is what I came up with... The Full GTI look......

That’s a nice looking Beach, like the styling, congrats

Nope, didn't get them from the forum shop. I particularly wanted the classic GTI red colour scheme & the forum shop ones seems to be a browny beige kind of check which wouldn't have gone.

I got them from a German company (ukatex-autositzbezuege) selling through eBay, who did lots of variations.

I watched a you tube video of the forum covers being fitted & quite frankly, the ones I've bought don't seem to be quite the same high quality, still OK but not as good. The saving grace is that for a full 7 seater beach they were only about 35% of the forum shop price.

"You pays your money & makes your choice".... as the saying goes.

I will say that the forum shop carpet set is excellent
