Very useful video, the configurator can be a minefield/exercise in interpreting the mind of it’s designer! Some options, like the hi viz are a total joke and makes potential buyers very wary of everything else but others are reasonable value and sensible. Have had traffic sign recognition on our Volvo since 2013 so really miss it on my T6, very handy as a double check when you’re in outskirts of town and limit is constantly changing. Trailer assist is an Interesting option but you’d get several hours of expert instruction for that and if anyone needed to take their +E to tow anything over 750kg I suspect they’d be required to perform the manoeuvres manually anyway... btw have a trailer but I’m miles away; wireless camera on the rear of that is incredibly handy when towing alone ;-)
Great video Chris, thanks! Makes the configurator less of a confuserator! We’ve not gone for the Pro Media purely on the basis that £678 is a lot of money for a slightly bigger screen, plus I actually prefer a physical volume button. Also, some roof bellow colours aren’t available with certain paint colours as we found out! Thanks again!
Hi later on this year I am looking at my first vw camper. I have a vw Commercial van dealership on my doorstep here in cleckheaton West yorkshire. Can I ask that dealership to make me a camper van all mod cons from their stock. Am getting compensation through from a work related accident last July 2020.I now have a titanium plate 3 screws in my right wrist and 6 screws holding my wrist together. Am 59 years old and want to get back into touring. Thank you.
Hi Julian, you can definitely ask them for a quote with anything you need yes. Whether they're able to do it with vehicles they have in stock depends on what they have available, they may still need to get you a factory order.
It's probably the one I'm looking forward to the most! Definitely will do a video on it when it arrives. Customer orders all taking priority at the moment, so might have to wait a bit longer.
@@CaliforniaChris we’re in no rush as we’re contemplating a new Cali but, it’ll be months yet. Never really fancied a kit of any sort but that candy red with those black wheels 👌🏼
Hi Chris, can you explain the ‘Z2C’ option on the Ocean?
Excellent video Chris really helps understand and clears a lot when you are trying to configure a new Ocean
Glad it was helpful!

A great comment, thank you! Good tip with the wireless cam on your trailer!

That's interesting about the bellows colour with different paint options! I'm still learning, haha. Thanks for commenting.
This video is so useful! Has clarified a bunch of stuff for me. One query, how big is the safe box?
Do the T6.1 California’s have I so fix points for child seats? Also do you think VW will ever make a long wheel based version?
80 liter fuel tank is removed from option list for 4 motion 2021
Hi Chris....can you tell me does the side awning have sides on it to keep the wind off...and is it poles ...?
Hey Chris! Would you recommend upgrading to the ArtVelours upholstery for durability with small children?
Just a note that if you order the Sports pack you have to have the Driver Assist Plus pack??
Any actual video on the sports pack ? And why can't you have 2 tone with the sports pack ?
Hi Chris with the sports package do you get a darker window tint than the normal privacy glass ?
If one wanted to tow a caravan with a california, what is the weight of a caravan that one could tow with the california?
I enjoyed watching the Video
Glad you enjoyed it

Looks interesting
