    I absolutely LOVE watching your videos because you always explain them nicely and it gives me a wonderful idea of what we want to buy. This is the best yt channel ever about camper vans. xx

    Love the Westfalia finish and quality ... Harbour Creek are a very nice family dealership. Caring and knowledgable without the pressure sales of others. Nice review.

  • @blacklablover2982
    @blacklablover2982 4 года назад

    Another brilliant review. I hope Harbour Creek appreciate the customer traffic your reviews generate 😁. I am off to visit them prior to driving home after the covid 19 lockdown is lifted. They certainly have some great products.

    Westfalia do a folding ladder to access the bed upstairs. I have one ..... it’s great

    really like this for the ability to move seats around. even take them out for transporting things around. good for everyday use. seems a better fit for me than the Keplar 1

  • @tombell8156
    @tombell8156 4 года назад

    Great review guys. I have just ordered a Coast after you other video. THIS LOOKS A BETTER FIT FOR ME THAN THE ONE >>> WHICH i seem to remember had no fridge!!!

      Fridge is in the cupboard behind the seats on the one.

    Loving the reviews on your channel guys. Do the Westfalia vans come with outdoor table and chairs like the Cali and Marco Polo?

  • @dackel1237
    @dackel1237 6 лет назад

    Thank you for the review. The Kepler Six from Westfalia seems interesting. What I could not see or missed were two things, 1.) how does the roof opens (the same way as with the California?) and 2.) I didn't see the dashboard. It seemed to me it is a standard transporter dashboard and not that "more care like" dashboard from the California. But I could be wrong here.

  • @williamdonnelly2705
    @williamdonnelly2705 6 лет назад +1

    An other great informative video guys. Much prefer this to the Kepler one due to the fact the space is not wasted by trying to provide a bathroom. Much better and more flexible use of space and I would also consider this over the California due to to fact 1. LWB = more space and 2. The flexibility options with the seats and floor rails. The VW transporter can have these rails, VW should have more design options in their Camper Van stable I am sure they would sell.

  • @alannorman1773

    Nice looking van with some good design touches with some similarities to the Wellhouse/Lunar Terrier Transit

  • @crystaldwfan
    @crystaldwfan 6 лет назад +3

    Awesome review! This looks cool I would prefer the Kepler one (if I lived in the uk) only because it has a bathroom. But this one looks cool too.

    Really enjoy your videos, do you find you have enough space in the VW campers for a longer trip or would you prefer a bigger space?

    • @ABusAndBeyond
      @ABusAndBeyond  4 года назад

      We have certainly proven that you can do longer trips happily in these size campers. But sometimes more space is also nice. It completely depends on personal preference 😊👍

  • @ianmason8713
    @ianmason8713 6 лет назад +1

    Does Westfalia sell the Jules Vern in the UK? I had a look around one of these, here in Belgium and was impressed, especially as it was very competitively priced, compared to most of the other Westfalia products.

    Love the video! Just a little error in the description if you're as picky as i am. It says check out the Kepler one, not six 😁

    • @ABusAndBeyond

      Haha! Thanks for pointing that out! I’ll change that now 😁

  • @bluerallyes2
    @bluerallyes2 6 лет назад

    Viable alternative to the California but I think the Cali residuals will be stronger. Tough choice for me, def between this, the One and a T6 Ocean.

  • @rogerwaldram4295
    @rogerwaldram4295 5 лет назад

    Lovely camper but not for us here in France after our Hymer Exsis i. For me so much missing compared with the Kepler One or the Jules Verne. No more porta-potti's for me! Checked out this since currently I can only find these with an auto gearbox here.

  • @GetEviefied
    @GetEviefied 6 лет назад +4

    Thanks for the tour! I’m gonna get me one tomorrow. What? They don’t sell these in the United States? Ugh...ok. I’ll just buy the California Camper then. Wait what? They don’t sell that in the United States either? Ugh! Come on VW!

      @ABusAndBeyond  6 лет назад

      Lighter Packs We didn’t even use the sound from them in the end. The sound is all through our RX100 which has a cat on it and the lavmic was a test to see which was better. RX100 won.

  • @bobparker637
    @bobparker637 6 лет назад

    Children's coat hangers could work. As for ferry costs, DFDS motorhome upto 7 mts then upto 10 mts. I know others have a different pricing policy. Working on the above if your camper is 7.1 mtr - put a bike rack on.

  • @mirkwoodforest6572
    @mirkwoodforest6572 6 лет назад

    Great review, great van. The rack system would be great for a porta-potty and it’s too bad that the engine drive air conditioner couldn’t be replaced with an electric motor (powered by the alternator when driving or the mains when parked)...

  • @pete1927
    @pete1927 6 лет назад

    Another great review, i do like the build of Westfalia has an aircraft feel about it, I don’t think Mrs W would handle getting into the top though. Were the rear seats able to recline?

  • @benvernick
    @benvernick 6 лет назад

    Very nice, although I prefer the Kepler One myself. Interesting that it comes in other side drive, I’m wondering if you could import one into the US? Sadly we don’t have Westfalia in the US.....I’d give up my first born for a Kepler One 😀

    • @flybyairplane3528
      @flybyairplane3528 5 лет назад

      Ben Vernick guess what,,in HAWAII there are WESTFALIAS FOR RENT,,NEW but only petrol engined, but don’t have your hopes too,high,,HAWAII gets vehicles that the lower 48 DO NOT GET.CHEERS from NJ

  • @darrenjones3681
    @darrenjones3681 6 лет назад +1

    Well done guys, is that swb or lwb? I’d still like to see a lwb conversion with a normal rear rock and roll or California style rear seat bed still on rails like the California just so our furry four legged friends have more space at night

      This is diesel, but I think they do a petrol option (not sure how that changes the webasto heating though)

  • @simonspain6080
    @simonspain6080 6 лет назад +3

    I saw this and the Kepler One when we were travelling through France......in our California T5 and I have to say I was rather disappointed with the build quality myself. They are cool ideas but no where near as solid and finished as the Cali is and even though I criticise my Cali for many faults I was glad I had seen these keplers as it made me realise that I had the better van. Just a bit thin and cheap plastic in places. And ok the door holds the table but the Cali has TWO tables and two chairs! Bench in the Cali is much more comfy to relax as a sofa also as separate seats may be great when driving but are not easy to relax and lay on when you want to use the van to live in. No....Cali is still the best.....even though I don't know why some smart person at Westfalia or VW can't do it better!

  • @ChrisJames1973
    @ChrisJames1973 6 лет назад

    Really like the individual rear seats and the bed is a great idea. I also really like the adaptable storage options and the fact the boxes can be removed so you can pack Indoor and then put the boxes in the van. Does it have heating as an option?

    • @ABusAndBeyond
      @ABusAndBeyond  6 лет назад

      Yes it comes with blown air heating. Same as the Cali basically.

      Correct. As mentioned, the Kepler was driven to the beach for us to review and taken away again after. Wasn't much of a holiday 😂

  • @odd_job_007
    @odd_job_007 6 лет назад +2

    A common trend I see these days is RUclips channels start off in the purest form of its intention (i.e. the cali/vw camping lifestyle) and people (like me) buy into it because its brilliant to see other people's experiences, but at some point, especially when the subscriber count goes up, it turns into a marketing conduit? Not dissing you by the way because your delivery is great, but its a shame your channel loses its essence (obviously just my opinion). Good luck with your 'new' channel.

    a minicamper, however essential it may be, must be as autonomous as possible, that is, it must not depend on an external bathroom and shower, the availability of which is imponderable. This vehicle has neither a toilet nor a shower so, in my opinion, it is perfectly useless.
