Dreaming of wide open spaces and the freedom of the road?
As winter turns to spring and the mornings and evenings get lighter our thoughts return to bright sunny days and life lived outdoors.
Many of us are planning Easter holiday breaks either in the UK or Europe.
Have you thought of a camper van for the ultimate independent holiday experience?
We recommend the following camper vans in our range of marques available:
Volkswagen has recently re-vamped its camper van range. The introduction of the Transporter T6.1 platform to the commercial vehicle line-up has seen the iconic California camper van get a make over too. Now available in ‘Ocean’ and ‘Coast’ versions, the California is kitted out with efficient engines, high quality interior fittings, all the latest infotainment and high tech driver assistance and safety features.
If you’ve always longed for a ‘veedub’ camper, then you might want to choose the retro two-tone paint option. We have VW camper vans for sale in our dealership in Sussex.
You might think that space is limited, but the Volkswagen California has been developed over 60 years, and the experts at VW have used every inch of space effectively to give you a really comfortable home from home.
An elevating roof allows you more head room when you’ve parked up. The California can sleep 4 people comfortably.
When it’s time to eat, the fully fitted kitchen on board houses a cool box, sink and stove unit. There’s also a camping table and chairs which can be set up outside or stowed away neatly when not in use.
That’s not a problem. Volkswagen have just launched the Grand California in two sizes. This is even bigger than the Ocean and Coast models and can sleep two adults, two children and has a bathroom on board. Having a toilet, shower and sink included makes the freedom of the road even easier.
But that’s not all, an external temperature-controlled shower, touch-pad control of lighting, water and battery levels, dual fuel heating, optional roof mounted air conditioning , optional solar panels and TV satellite dish mean that all your home comforts travel along with you.
The latest versions of our Volkswagen California and Grand California have plenty of technology to help you. Think front and rear parking sensors, crosswind assist to keep you stable in high winds, lane assist and adaptive cruise control.
Don’t worry, the VW campers have intelligent mobile online services, touchscreens, integrated SIM cards, USB type C ports, smartphone integration, Bluetooth, DAB+ radio and ‘We Connect’ gives you media streaming, emergency call systems and cloud-based personalisation. You’ll be fine!
Yes, of course.We have a try before you buy scheme where you can take a California for an extended test drive, see how easy it is to drive – and park – and ask our sales team lots of questions.
Can I rent or hire a camper van from The JCB Group? Yes, you certainly can! Contact our Euro Van Hire franchise at Eastbourne for daily or weekly rental rates. UK and Europe rates for over 25s are available.
New and used Volkswagen camper vans are sold from our Volkswagen Commercial Vehicle franchise at Eurovans Crawley. Our experts at the branch can answer all your questions and queries and take you on a test drive.
Free vehicle health checks are offered for California owners. The checks give you peace of mind before you motor off for your Easter or summer break, especially if your camper has been parked up un-used throughout the cold winter months. Get your vehicle checked before you embark on your next trip.
Did you know that Volkswagen are developing the ID. Buzz concept camper for production in 2022? It still retains the look of the fabulous ‘veedub’, but with a really futuristic feel too – spooky! Take a look at Volkswagen Commercials' electric plans.
