California Beach T7 - Breeze Poole

Californication69 · May 30, 2026

Hi all, collected my California Beach T7 from Brad at Breeze Poole today.
Been working with Tom from Breeze from 7 years ago trying to get a Cali Ocean.
Got first 20 plate Ocean 6.1 from Heritidge in Bristol.
Sold that after 6 months for a hearty profit in covid times.
Then got 23 plate Ocean 6.1 4M from DTD as Tom & Brad couldn’t compete with DTD.

Happy to finally meet Tom after speaking with him for 7 years today.
If you’re in the market for any Cali, my advice is speak with them at Breeze Poole and they will try to pull out all the stops.
They did me an absolute solid deal and got me on to the 2.9% deal after VW saying I had to stay on 4.9% PCP.

Thanks to Brad, Jamie and Tom at Breeze.
Let the Cali adventures start.

And the upgrades, but shush, don’t tell the wife.
First on the list is BRONZE 18” springfields with cc3

Thinking what to call the Cali.
Hugs and ermmm ?
Huge forks

Any ideas ?

Congratulations on the new Cali, I’m also collecting one from Brad next week, a T7 Ocean. We previously had 3 Californias, the last one a lovely two-tone T6.1 Coast. Sold it to scratch a bad itch and bought a new Defender 110 D250 (absolutely a superb vehicle, did Zermatt twice, NC500 etc., faultless). But we missed the van life, found a good deal with Brad, and can’t wait to get started on some adventures.

I thought they only fitted transporter based Californias?
