1978 Volkswagen T2 Microbus - Champagne Edition - LHD for sale
Current customer rating: (544 votes ) based onRare Champagne Edition bay-window microbus finished in its original oh-so-seventies colour scheme of Fuchsrot over Dattelbraun with matching interior. Left-hand drive.
This bus has had just two owners from new. The first. in its native California. kept it from 1978 until 2008. after which it was imported to the UK. It has a full and comprehensive service history. starting with the first fuel receipt when it was driven from the dealership to the present day. A detailed log indicates which service items were performed at what mileage. It is incredibly rare and a real delight to find a vehicle like this with such comprehensive records.
After coming to the UK the bus was treated to a bare metal repaint to the highest standard. It is totally rust-free. has never been welded and is completely arrow straight with none of the waviness associated with restored bay window buses.
The old fuel injected (California spec) engine was replaced in 2011 with a brand new NOS (not reconditioned) 1800cc Type 4. with a pair of brand new 40mm downdraught twin-choke Webers. This engine has covered less than 5000 miles since.
The interior is all original and in amazing condition. The rear seat has ‘Z-hinges' so it folds flat to make a full width double bed. and the middle seat can be removed it you wish to fit a table and use it as a day van.
Since its light restoration. this Microbus has been featured in Volksworld Camper and Bus (front cover too) and Camper and Commercial. It won an award at Volksworld 2010 and numerous other shows.
Fantastic to drive and in quite incredible condition. What's more. it's totally practical to own. Must be the nicest of its type available.
