So, my late 2019 California 204 bhp with just 30,000 miles clocked has a blocked valve in the bi-turbo. My mechanic says it's cheaper overall and makes better sense to replace it with a warrantied product than attempt refurbishment or repairs. Much to my surprise, the vehicle, which was purchased from a VW main dealer 4 years ago has apparently been "chipped" which I knew nothing about. So once the turbo has been replaced I am thinking of replacing the van too.
I really like the look of the ID Buzz and am drawn towards a standard WB GTX for the 4WD. Because I mainly use the van to sleep in at music festivals and a bit of UK touring I tend not to use the cooker at all (I use a single burner gas stove outside so I don't smell up the interior). I also prefer to sleep on the bed downstairs and raise the top just for headspace. I do use the sink a bit for washing up teacups and the like. All that I will really miss is the wardrobe and storage space and convenience of the water tank and waste tank.
What I would like to know is if anyone else has been using a BUZZ as a camper and what their experience has been like - is it ok or a bit of a disaster. Apart from major projects based on a cargo van, are there "temporary" storage and facility solutions that people here have tried and tested?
There are always rumours of a Buzz style camper coming air some time but I usually find that the options are often restricted - like I want 4WD ...
Any feedback much appreciated.
