Not sure, but it appears to be there for me.

How strange. Back for me now too.

We were lucky enough to get to Dusseldorf to see both the 600 & 680...

So is your name change in preparation for a different vehicle? Or did vw ask you to change it for the flights?

Neither. We got fed up of people saying "well that's not a California" whenever we featured a different vehicle

I like it, defentily a better name for what you do.
Keep up the good work.

It entirely depends what you want but for pricing size does not matter

I would quite happily pay a premium for having every life-support necessity there is in something that can go under a 2m barrier, park in a normal parking bay, gives me confidence on small, unmade roads and means that I do not need another vehicle in the drive because it quite happily doubles as a second car.

Agree with this totally Gran jen. Don’t need a bus pass or an electric bike either! You can go/drive
where the road takes you!

So no votes for the correct amount then?

Less than £50,000 since vw state base price of under €55,000 in Germany. That’s with standard auto too.

I expect they'll be the same price here then!

Wow. Post was over a year ago.

Linking the two threads running tonight, list price revealed as 'from' £68,899

Having seen some press shots, I imagine that gets you steel 16' wheels and general poverty levels all around.
Please no one buy that white over red smurf they are featuring.

Crikey, that seems a bit overpriced in comparison to other flavours of Panel van conversions out there

Enjoyed a bus and beyond test video on YouTube. Far too expensive though in my view. Too big anyway but it is nice

Here's the video if anybody is interested... grab a beer/cuppa, it's a long one

Thanks for the video. Looks ace. What’s Your thoughts on swapping to a grand, or have you also been impressed with the 6.1? Top job!

Sean/Lizzie, great video. Really useful to see the 600 ‘used in anger’. It still feels like a Motorhome with all the benefits of size/additional functionality but also the drawbacks of size/lack of manoeuvrability.

Thanks, yeah we certainly love both. Earlier this year we went to Europe and stopped in a few aires and other freebie stopovers which we really enjoyed. The Grand would certainly allow us to do more "off grid" camping for longer which is a big selling point for us.

Great video - thank you.

 

[RodCouncil]

Great video, didn’t realise the license upgrade you would need on a 680

 

[Louis II]

I think that depends when you passed your test

 

[UrbanSplash]

Why no 4Motion for the 600?

Really enjoyed the review. Thank you both.

I have C1 which which is 3.5 to 7.5t

 

[aBusAndBeyond]

If you passed your test pre1997, chances are you’ll have the required C1 license already

Thanks for posting the video; it"s a good van apart from fiddling with the curtain poles. No good for me though, too big.
