Nice oneHaving recently purchased my T6 Kombi the first thing that needed sorting was the suspension.
Chris posted a reply to my first post on here and gave me his recommendation for a max comfort setup. Koni Active shocks and H&R coils for a 40mm drop, and as I live just 30 minutes away from the new workshop it was an easy decision.
The ride is transformed and Chris has been great with advice on other issues on my wish list, and some that weren’t but are now!
Thanks Chris, and see you again on Tues!

It was great to meet you and your son today, I'm chuffed you are pleased with the end result, although I had no doubt that you would be! It was a pleasure to work on such a stunning van too. Enjoy the new ride!A big shout-out for @ChrisR and Van Cave who fitted me out with the much discussed -40mm H&R & Koni (Sport in my case as T32 with 20’ wheels) combination. I couldn’t be more pleased!
I was hoping to get the look I was after, without compromising the ride...The outcome however surpassed my expectations by some margin...the look I want, plus a smoother, quieter and altogether more composed ride. The extra clearance is also just what I needed to safely park my van under the car port.
Chris’s passion and professionalism shines through in his work and I have no hesitation in recommending him and Van Cave...and then he is just a really nice bloke as well! Thanks so much Chris!!!

Thanks for the great review! Sorry again about the Milk, what is a workshop without milk for a cuppa?! We got some in the end though.Firstly anyone considering B14's - go for it!
Secondly, anyone who needs them installed - go to @ChrisR !!
Took my van to the Van Cave and can add to the chorus - Chris is an absolute professional, and your van will be in safe hands with him.
As an example when installing the coilovers, Chris noticed my rear rubber suspension cups were shot - with other places this could have been a delay of an hour or even a couple of days while waiting for the part, but Chris, of course, keeps them in stock - ahead of milk in fact, so you know he has the right priorities haha
Fab little waiting room at the unit with sofa/heater too.
Anyone thinking about getting work done at the Van Cave, go for it. Fantastic service and fantastic prices - a very rare combination!!
First one I looked at too!I think the Speed would look seriously good on a T6. Any pics of it mounted?
I could not agree with you more!! No mounted pics yet, but watch this space. A satin black set will be on my van in the near future.......I think the Speed would look seriously good on a T6. Any pics of it mounted?
Yes they are. They’re either 8.5” wide with a slightly concave look, or 10” wide for a deep concave. In fact, all styles are available in both widths.
