The California is a real home from home. Everything you need for cooking is ready and waiting. An impressive standard safety package means you can rest assured the California's occupants and load will be safe. For times when more seating is needed, the optional fifth seat can be placed in the living area, and removed when no longer needed. No matter what your personal tastes are you will find a colour to suit.

Volkswagen California SE 4Motion TDI 2007

Being outdoor nuts my girlfriend and I decided that we would fit our vehicle around our lifestyle and have spashed out on the California. It’s a beaut of a camper van and has everything you need (no toilet or shower though). Perfect for just chucking in the essentials on a Friday night after work and heading off to the coast for a very comfortable camping weekend, whatever the weather. Nice to drive, but be careful when cornering, you do get used to this but you can’t just throw it around corners like a car. I think Volkswagen have done an excellent job of updating the old Camper van and make weekends something to look forward to.

I’m a first timer torn between the California and the Autocruiser. Not a frivolous question, but how do you cope on a trip without showering and loo facilities? - John Jarvis from Sussex
