Hi all readers,
I justed signed up as new member. I bought my T6 (from 2016) in 2022 and hope to learn a lot here.
In the past (the 90's) I had a T4 and liked it a lot. But my T6 has a lot more options.
Especially I like the ACC and the 4motion..
When I bought the van, it was fitted with low-profile tires and and a lowered suspension.
Both are useless when you plan to go off-road sometimes. Now I have the standard suspension with 215/70R16.
Sofar no probs in the (mild) dirt.
At the moment I am busy to convert it into a camper. Hoping that the dutch RDW are not to strict with me.
cross my fingers, check is on march 23rd.
all the best from the Netherlands.

Another Dutchie.... Goedemorgen
This is the one I got. 2019 Kombi, T32, LWB, 4motion with Diff-lock, 204BMT, Comfort dash and sportline trim. Wahoo, the adventure begins.
All sound deadened and carpeted but the previous owner didn't upgrade the sound, so I'll be setting that right. Along with a few other lifestyle choices.
It goes some...
Thanks.

Hi everyone, we’re Craig & Jo we’re new members on here. We’ve used the forum a few times over the years for advice and when searching for ideas and tips during our van build.
This our 2017 Peppermint T6 FeeBee. We’ve owned her since Sept 2019 having bought her as an ex-distribution van and converted her into our getaway home on wheels. We had recently put her up for sale as we’ve always planned to upscale eventually, but after a couple of viewings we’ve come to our senses and we’re keeping her. Telling our story to prospective buyers made us realise what we’d got and we’re not quite ready yet to move up to a Crafter as our only vehicle. We’ve swapped our kids for kit as they’ve flown off to uni and we now need to alter her layout to suit our new style of adventures. We need to store our kayak, electric scooters & folding bikes so we’re now looking at smart storage solutions.
We’ll be scanning through here looking for inspiration, and we’ll obviously be joining the Team Green pages!

Howdy!
My name's Lee and I've just recently purchased a fully converted T6! Always wanted one, cannot wait to get out there with the family on our adventures (first test this weekend) and loving owning our aptly named 'Dub Khalifa'

Update.
Found our van and collect next week.
Hi all,
New to this forum, and must add it looks amazing.
I am on the hunt for a T6.1 SWB 150Ps with low milage and either converted or I will have it done myself.
Look forward to picking all you experienced experts minds in the future.

What is this strange concept of "a growing bank balance" you speak of?
That was when I had a Volvo xc60 D4, £30 tax, £180 ins and 48mpg on a long run and goodwill for getting the EGR cooler changed (twice). The van is now my daily ride, getting about 500 to a tankful, mixed driving. That said I’m still loving it.What is this strange concept of "a growing bank balance" you speak of?

Had a problem with auto fold mirrors being hit. Just glass and casing to replace. Originally both mirrors folded after incident now only passenger folds. Drivers only makes noise. Also, drivers will only fold manually down not up. Is there a reset that can be done. As I've said all worked fine for a week after incident. Thanks

Just joined as I’m looking at opting into the T6 community with a 4 motion to tow a 2000kg caravan, once I’ve found a suitable vehicle I will post pics in the meantime I have a lot of reading to do.
Welcome it’s a great place to learn and ask any questions enjoy
