This Van is a newcomer to our house of Dubs.

The beast

On a recent trip to Busfest, I was in search of a barn door roof spoiler and a set of alloys for the T5 I have been converting myself over the last couple of years. Well, I did get a spoiler, and some wheels, but they all came attached to the Van you see here, which was instantly nicknamed ‘The beast’ by fellow T5 owner, Chris.

The reason I bought it was because the styling was everything I had in mind for my next Van, so I just had to have it.
