T4 California - LWB?

[bxl_lad]

Hi,
I spotted this, can't say I've ever seen a LWB California (high top) before - and its not an 'Exclusive'... Is it genuine?

Seems so, but just haven't come across one before... If not then it looks well made.

Have been reading the text (via google translate):
Seems its from 1994, but has had a 2.5tdi upgrade and long-nose front end added, so is likely unique in that sense. But was there such a model back in 1994 with LWB?
Either way looks like an interesting setup, though still lacking a toilet in that rear galley...

Yup. Genuine I believe. Weirdly there’s one round the corner from us. Again with the long nose conversion. The 2.5TDI will be an upgrade too as I recall correctly that didn’t show its face til 1996/7.

Interesting.

LWB? Presumably mit poopenschisenbox in the back?

Yes, it's a Club. I've seen a couple in the UK. You can tell an exclusive from a club by where the rear of the roof ends. On the exclusive it goes right to the very back, because the Exclusive doesn't have an opening tailgate. On the Club it stops short (because it has the tailgate ... As do the T5 and T6 Westy Joker models).
Some would argue the club is a better layout than the exclusive as the latter's built in toilet don't get much use, but as they were earlier, they lack the tdi grunt, and are heavy.

Pretty smart that, interesting layout . . .
