I have a mate thats in love with my VW and he was close to buying a beetle but pulled out as he had 'better' things to spend his money on
But now his looking for a van for work to store his fabrics as his in the textile industry, and ive semi convinced to buy a splitty
How much should he expect to pay for a pretty imaculate one?
And anyone got any cool pics of some as i want him to get a splitty:bounce

for a spiltty in semi good condition i reckon about from anywhere from $6000 to $10000. Its also depends where you look, how its been treated etc, just the usual stuff in buying a car.
Good Luck to your mate!:thumb

I think you are in luck Costa
Volkspower is advertising today in BS&S a ex PMG van that is $5k as a base and add from there.
They said they will fix it up to whatever level you want
its an old postie van. PMG... post master general.
you will find them in all ranges of $$$. but they will all need some work. and if he is using it every day. then you would have to do what ive done and convert to disc brakes and update the mechanical.
as for buying one it would depend on what is done. i reackon good ones are above ten k easy. somne have gone for twenty. i wouldnt sell mine as i just wouldnt get the dollars back. ( try 30K)
but i would tell anyone... 'dont expect to get away with it cheap.'

I dont think my mate is willing to do the Vans up he'd rather one complete with no probs and one thast looks hot
so he should be expecting $10 - $15k?

I like the matte brown one on 17" BRM's. I really should find myself one, but then i'd have even less money and no spare time at all.

Had the Marketing Manager of Wayward Bus tours come in yesterday to up date us on tours. They have a couple of very cool graphics of their splitty on two new flyers :thumb
Of course I raved about them, and mentioned my addiction, so he's sending us t-shirts which have the pics on them:bounce:bounce
They only use the bus for promotion but he does own a couple of VW's
Tour buses are Toyota's :puke
I love those matte black buses:kiss How hot do they get being totally black?
twoguns ·
they dont get too hot. espesh if you have the safari windows open, which i do all the time.... besides i just love the look.
