Not from the seat surgeons, from our own suppliers who do all our leather. The backs look to be the same cushions though. However the base cushions are different - we have the factory or Caravelle exec option.

ahhh, I'm with you now, I thought you were referring to the seat base (plastics and metal base underneath) rather than the base cushion. Thanks!
Oh. Thats very interesting. One of the things i didnt like about the seat surgeons is the base cushion was way too firm for me. Replace that with OEM or Caravelle is much more tempting now.
The Caravelle Exec base is very comfortable and makes a big change by itself - We will have our first demo kit here soon
How would my heated seat bases wok with that? I believe the Caravelle heat mats are in the seat cover, but the normal van ones are stuck to the seat foam?
By the 22nd October?
Our trimmer would be able to swap them over
Im afraid not, I would think very end of October/Start of November- Im just replying to your private message now
Not Transporter related, but it’s a VW 
We tucked the Mk2 up yesterday for winter. As a final modification we painted the front and rear badges in body colour (from the previous red) - finishes it off nicely

These Powerflex rear lower spring isolator bushes are proving very popular since our first stock order arrived earlier this month. As a direct replacement for the factory lower bushes, they fit so much better, and will certainly cope better - The factory bushes need regular checking/and often replacement yearly on lowered vehicles - These are the perfect replacement, and come with a lifetime warranty.
They are priced at £20.34 per bush
We are recommending these on all our suspension replacements.
Factory v Powerflex

Another brand new kombi finished and forecourt ready. Full details on the website
How lucky is @DTT6 ?
We had their T6 in yesterday for a cambelt change - vehicle has covered 24k miles and is 49 months old- cambelt was due on time (1 month overdue), not on mileage.
On stripdown we discovered the lower idler pulley was coming loose and only held in by 2 threads! Had this had come out fully, the damage would have been catestrophic!
I’d go and buy a lottery ticket if I were you……

Just been speaking to our dealer on outstanding orders (of which we have 100+) - it appears that if you order a Transporter they can take 18months + at the minute, but if you order an ID Buzz they are being built!
I actually changed the Lime and white 1st Edition to Mono silver with the mistral blue interior- I just felt everyone will order in the launch of like/white and less is always more with me
- This went into build last week(week 43). The Green/white 1st Edition still hasn’t got a build week but shouldn’t be too long….
Our 6 ID ID Buzz Cargos have been given a confirmed build week of 47.
It would appear our ID Buzzes are in the first batch into the UK, and will be added straight to the hire fleet

@BognorMotors - so pleased I had the belt replaced when I did and that it was with BMVS who spotted this!How lucky is @DTT6 ?

As you know we work on all vehicles in our workshops. This VW Beach Buggy arrived with us a couple of weeks ago for a full check over. We’ve already done a full rebuild in the engine and now it’s re-wire time…..
It’s the third one we’ve worked in recently

Haha, seeing those pics reminded me of a friend of mine who had one of those in the desert in Morocco (Grand Erg Chebbi in Merzouga, to be precise) and on one particularly raucous drive around the dunes whilst airborne the bonnet flew off and the fuel tank ended up in his lap.
Fairly standard behaviour for a beach buggy I would imagine!
