So terrible, are you not able to drive to the factory still? Hopefully one of the other members will be on here soon to offer help, we are 300km away.
If the crack isn't on the drivers side you should be able to drive.No we didn't call the police but actually I think in the morning that we will tell the manager that we want it reported as vandalism.
As I lie here in bed there is a large group of late teen male hockey players singing and shouting under our window. I have asked the reception for them to be quiet but nothing has been done. Shocking. I have to say that was my first trip taking the camper outside the uk and at the moment it looks very much like being my last.
@GillianC
Realy sad news , hope you can arrange something to proceed your trip .
Do report at the police , your insurance might need this report.
If the crack isn't on the drivers side you should be able to drive.
We had a massive crack once and Autoglass advised us we were ok to drive. We were starting a 300 mile trip to a funeral we didn't want to miss.
At least it would get you away from the yobs.
That's just appalling. Can Autoglass get you fixed and out of there?It is really smashed all over and gives when you touch it. Can't drive it.
Fortunately the hockey matches finish today so they will be leaving us.
I just read chat from Gilian's Windscreen Disaster. I'm really sorry. Why do people make so stupid things?
+ Martin: Sorry, but due to really less time the last weeks I read now your request from March 10, 2017 to tell a bit about ne/us.
Hello, we - Jochen Hammermeister and Birgit Emmrich - are from Germany (North Rhine Westphalia, District Recklinghausen nearby Dortmund ) and has been since 2012 owner of a black California Comfortline. We like VW California (we know that british people have really more enthusiasm than other people) and we hope that we learn a lot about these cars.
Many thanks to the organisators of the visit event. We know it needs a lot of efforts to manage this all.
By the way: we reserved a place at Camping Birkensee for today (April 17, 2017, evening) and hope that we will find a space nearby the british Cali-fans.

I presume Gillian it's your insurance company sorting this out and not VW assist.?

Well...just when I thought it couldn't get any worse....the GB magnetic sticker has now been stolen from the end of the van. I was verbally abused by an elderly couple on the train back from Amsterdam. ' madam in our country silent means silent. You voted for Brexit and that is your choice' All I was doing was speaking very quietly to my husband. I thought the silent carriages were like our quiet ones...apparently not but no need at all to be so rude. Another guy was talking on his phone but they ignored him.
I want to go home ASAP and never come back here. I never thought that I would say this but actually I am glad we have voted for Brexit,
My precious camper has been vandalised and I have been verbally abused. Very clearly we from the UK are not welcome in this country and that is fine by me. I never want to return.
Thanks Gillian. Good luck with your repair.Yes our insurance company Mike.
Don't think we are in VW assist. The van is just over 3 years old. Even if it was I don't it would change anything. The NL equivalent of auto glass, Car Glass don't have anything available.
Hopefully will have some timescales tomorrow but too late for the factory tour

To me this forum is all about people from all over the world showing kindness to each other. We even have people from NZ chiming in. Bad people can be find everywhere and its rarely country specific.I want to go home ASAP and never come back here.

Ask them to get a move on with my van whilst you are there would you. Two weeks ago I was told by VWUK that it was built. Today I was told its at Production Point 7. Almost complete. Oryx white 204 Dsg ocean with black cascavels. Tell them to pull their finger out. Its 2 months late already.First part of the tour
