| I think it's built into the window winder. When you turn the handle the cab cools down a bit | |

| Surely to be cool, we just sit in the van with our shades on and a grin.......

| Best aircon system - turn the small quarter front window right round - the air blasts right at you! Not sure if it helps fuel consumption though.... | |

| Aircon is in the centre of the dashboard, below cruise control and right between the rev counter and temperature gauge. Least it is on mine. Actually, there's a guy in the US who appears to have aircon in his South/Central American Kombi ( see this thread). So now there's power steering available, what's next? Aircon? Integral sat nav? Slimline salad dressing? | |

| The spec looks much higher than the Brazilian bus - must be one of the last Mexican ones? | |

| Hi Guys - I dont know how that one got into the USA!? Weird spec too. Re the 3 seater front: You can order this as a factory option (in fact weve sold a few lately with a 3 seater front). Jason www.danburymotorcaravans.com | |

| there is a tilt and turn bench seat featured in volksworld this month starting around £900 which doubles up as a sleeping area for a small child and the back lifts and turns over to enable you to face towards the rear. Its a space saver too. Might clash any units in terms of footroom but worth a look... | |

| I like the idea of a bench seat across the front, however i do like being able to walk through to the back, also i presume someone sat in the middle would hinder the gearstick ________________________________________________________________________________ Matt. | |

Its a bit like this in any van with three seats up front... In my T4 the person sitting in the middle had the choice of either pointing both legs towards the passenger side, or having to spread their legs so I could change gear between them! | |

| Many moons ago I had to take a lot of other teachers out on a familiarisation drive in the new, automatic, school minibus. I sat in the middle seat with my right foot covering their left foot, to prevent us going through the windscreen if they involuntarily went for the missing clutch and hit the giant brake pedal! Quite a few also groped for the gear lever on my thigh | |

| Eva has 3 seats across the front - wanted a walk-through at first but 3 seats is useful. | |

| Hi mhami. It is a lot of money (£2915 + vat inc parts and labour) but its also a lot of work and the development cost was massive and time consuming too......Its fantastic and I was just using it in our demo vehicle and can say that it works really well. | |

| Yes we often sell very high specification campers but everyone has their own idea of high spec, the look and the options fitted so each one is different.....Mid £30's to mid £40's is a great spec van but the model range starts at just £22500 inc taxes and vat. I love your profile pic of your camper...Very retro! | |
