2 years waiting, now our “Buzz” has arrived

[PhilR]

Finally, after initially cancelling our first order, then waiting over 13 months we now have our Cali, which we’ve named Buzz. This is him after 2 weeks of ownership and trips to Leighton Vans and #DetailedbyDale for a few bits and pieces. I’ll post some more pics but so far we are extremely happy. It is everything we wished for. To infinity…..and some winter camping!

Highly recommended so far are…..
Detailed By Dale (Atherstone) for such a fabulous prep and ceramic coating job, the man is a perfectionist.
Campervancarpets - as you can see Ali & Chris did a fab job with our Buzz theme.
Beatnik graphics - really helpful and the decals are ace.
Leighton Vans - front splitter/spoiler, gloss black grilles, trapezoid sidebars, rear spoiler. Massively improve the look of the van imho.

And of course the club shop for various bits!

Stunning @PhilR Looking good indeed. Just need to reduce that arch gap now
Now get out and enjoy it!

PhilR, well worth the wait, thanks for the pics. Fortana Red and 'ceramicked' makes the look even better. Enjoy

May I ask how much the ceramic coating was? Looks fantastic!

Great colour Cali.
I’ve used Dale for one of my cars. He did a great job.

Yes….the gap….been thinking about that one for 2 years, however now we’ve got the van we love the way it rides and the nice height. So do I compromise that to make it look “better”???

Go on then lol

 

[PhilR]

Go on then lol

£1000 or thereabouts. I know, it’s like trying to sell ice to an Eskimo trying to explain to someone that this needs doing on a new vehicle, but if you know you know…….and this is the second time I’ve had this done by Dale and it is worth every penny as far as I’m concerned.

Great colour!

Stunning looking van @PhilR - congrats. I like all mods you have done, makes it very distinctive. Can I ask did Leighton vans do the colour matching for the spoiler/splitter. Can we see a back view to see the rear spoiler?

I humbly suggest that Dale is not the only perfectionist hereabouts - 'arch gap worries' indeed!

Seriously though, that is one super looking beast and lovely homely interior too, that you've created. May it bring you years of joy. Congratulations to you.

Thanks Graham. Yes LV did the Fortana stripes very well, really pleased with how it’s been done. I’ll see if I can find a photo of the rear spoiler, if not I’ll take one soon, however the back is very dirty after a trip to Wales today!

Thanks mate, that’s very kind of you to say
