After 2 wonderful years of owning a California Ocean, we’ve decided to upgrade. Very nearly bought an Adria Twin Sports 600 SPB, seriously considered a KNAUS Boxlife 540 but my head was turned at the NEC this week by the Columbus 540D with a worthwhile discount. Well aware that it’s an expensive option for a 5.4m van, but you can really see the quality in the Westfalia conversion and I’m confident it is built to last - hopefully the same can be said of the Fiat Ducato base vehicle! That slight worry aside, I think it’s the perfect upgrade to the Cali. Only as big as it needs to be for a retired couple, retains the benefit of a pop top for additional flexibility and retains the German build quality for all the interior fittings. I plan to stay on this forum as it will remain a useful source of advice and there’s no similar community for Westfalia vans.
