That is such a SWEET splitty!!
Hubby and I have been drooling over his commercials all week where you got a sneek peek of it but I'm glad I watched the show........ If you are

What impressed me more than anything was the headliner - he has one continuous headliner that extends down the pillars to the dashboard with no
visible joins!!

You boys are getting rather nasty......... I like it! lol
The inside of his Splitty has been modified to suit is cooking needs, and you boys mightn't think he is so 'pucka' but I think
he's tops.

Jamies split has a turbo'ed motor.
The bus was built by Matt Keane in the U.K., Mat has had his turbo oval in Volks World a couple of months ago, well last year.
There is a car program in the U.K. called Top Gear with Jeremy Clarkson and my mate from England sent me the episode where Jamie Oliver had to try and
make a salad in the back of his splitty while a racing driver was driving it around a race track.
The split really goes and it was so funny watching Mr Oliver being thrown around the back of his van.
Cheers
Dave

Check out
The last article that I saw on this bus I was sure it claimed it was 6 cylinder Porsche powered. Could be wrong, also said he paid around Aust$100,000
for it finished.volma1
They are still there, just have faith you'll find one.

The poms hate him for that bus.. Well, the ones in the VW circles anyway.
Theory behind it is because he bought a finished project cause he had all this money. Good luck to him I say, he woulda worked hard to get where he
is. At the same time, I guess I can see it from their side.
Looked like a nice bus.. :thumb

Well I sorta would imagine that he didn't fully pay for it himself
Was the show last night just about the bus or was he cooking for one of his shows?
Would imagine he can ask for a few things and get them due to his high ratings. So, if he gets an idea in his head re a show's presentation/theme
or new series, and is able to sell idea to the powers that be, then it'd be pretty much given to him I'd reckon
That's my theory, don't know anything about it, just throwing it out there.....
I'm sure he could afford the $100,000 himself though:o
Very cool bus though:kiss |

Well, a Guardian report were the words Jamie Oliver, Volkswagen and Skoda all appear
He earns, and brings in for others, big bucks by this report, but no connection to VW as yet
