Known officially as the Volkswagen Type 2 and depending on body
type. either as a Transporter. Kombi or Microbus. this VW was also
known informally as the Bus in the US and Camper in the UK.
Introduced in 1950 as Volkswagen's second car model. it was derived
from their first. the Beetle. which was designated the Type 1. This
second-generation Type 2 lost its distinctive split front
windscreen and was slightly larger and considerably heavier than
its predecessor. Its common nickname is 'Bay-window' or Bay for
short. The new model also did away with the swing axle rear
suspension and transfer boxes previously used to raise ride height.
Instead. half-shafts were fitted with constant velocity joints. The
updated Bus transaxle is usually sought after by off-road racers
using air-cooled Volkswagen components. Brazil contained the last
factory in the world that produced the T2. Production in Brazil
ceased on 31st December 2013 due to the introduction of more
stringent safety regulations. thus marking the end of an era with
the rear-engine Volkswagens which first originated in 1935.

This good looking VW Camper is fitted with a 1600 engine. br/>Porsche wheels and disc brakes allround making it a very useable
vehicle. It is righthand drive and benefits from having a full
length Webasto sunroof to enjoy those balmy summer days. Volkswagen
campers are very popular currently and with summer not too far
away. this well equipped eyecatching black example needs to be
considered. Supplied with a V5 registration document and a current
MoT test certificate.
