Welcome new members

Hi All. I'm totally new to VW. I have been looking at a Transporter for years mainly for carrying bikes and the odd camping. Finally pulled the plug las week and ordered a new T6 T32 Highline Kombi 204 DSG LWB in Pearlescent Black. I have had the usual extras - LEDs, twin Elec slidies, 2+1 bench, etc.
Vans on order with 20+ weeks so have plenty of time to sort out all the other dealer type options which I will be looking for assistance and advice such as leather, soundproof, lining, spoilers, front grill, side bars and wheels...
 
Hi all, its been a while - too busy, work, hols etc etc. I've come across from the dark side and it looks good. Good to see same names/vans. :). Off to have spoke around...

Thanks all - this looks like a great forum platform. Im looking forward to getting my van back - missus, kids and dog have been visiting family in Cambridgeshire this week and went in the van. Back later today - I'll have to pretend I've missed them more that the van! :D

Hi Everyone

Great forum. Big thumbs up to Pauly for starting it and giving a good alternative to the other one.
I've been lurking here a while during the wait for my T6.

I've never had a van before and started looking a year ago at T5's with a £10k budget.
A long and winding road of viewing disappointing vans - even 10 month old ones led to the budget repeatedly increasing
:)

Candy white highline panel van.
It's been " Kombi'ed " along with the usual external extra's

Roll on Monday evening when we go to collect it.

Hi @chriscc welcome to the forum, my story is very similar, wanted a 6 seater family wagon and having previously had a T5 work van started checking out T5 kombis £10k - £15k - £20k then ended up with a T6 and then a forum came out of nowhere :rolleyes:
 
It is a great forum, but it don't come for free. @Pauly has done a brilliant job but it's cost him in his pocket..... I'd encourage all active users to help support the ongoing running of the forum by making a small donation.

Just a small nudge from me!! ;):whistle:

Good call @Walski great bunch of people on here with all tastes whether it be modded or just running stock vans, I'm pretty sure it will grow into a hub valuable information:)
 
Hello all, just placed an order for a obi DSG after months of debating, but needed something for work and a family to replace my Vito that has served well

Hope to get some good times with the Transporter and loving the info online
 
Hi peeps, Just joined the forum. Had a 140 Highline for about two months now, traded in my 2 year old top of the range A6 avant s-line, and don't miss it one bit !!
Had a T5 about seven years ago, and also a 1965 Splitscreen that I regret selling :-( . I guess I missed the T5 so took the plunge.
Nothing done to it, but first job is windows, do VW sliders really leak as bad as people say ? as I prefer the flush fit. Still deciding on the interior layout, but I still want the luxury of using the space if required, so been recommended a Bebb bed ?.
I've limited DIY knowledge so will be checking local converters for work.
 
Welcome aboard buddy....what colour you got.... Trying to recruit more into team grey!!!!

Mine will be Indium Grey when it finally arrives - all being well its being built this week so, with delivery to UK and convertor time, I'm hoping to get sometime in October.
