Diggin' The Scene
VW Bus T4&5+|Issue 98
For some people a T5 is just a work vehicle, for others it’s just a daily driver. For the rest of us it can be an all-consuming and powerful expression of oneself
Dave Warren
Diggin' The Scene

This is Adam Hickson’s dream, a blank canvas that he can adapt as far as his own imagination allows, his dream has evolved into a show winning T5. Adam, a bricklayer from Grimsby, has always loved the VW scene. His reasoning? “The culture is so friendly and people always stop to say hello and talk about the love of VWs that we all share”.

Adam, a family man, wanted his whole family to enjoy being part of the VW scene, where they could all spend quality time together, away from the daily stresses of life. Camping out roasting marshmallows over open fires, smelling the fresh air and looking at stars, all with his family, whilst enjoying the interaction with the fellow VW fanatics. New generations and the older generations sharing the love of the VW.
