Shortly after World War II Ben Pon( a Dutch wine merchant and former racing driver), came up with the idea of creating a van based on the VW Beetle. His inspiration came from visiting the VW factory in Wolfsburg, where he saw stripped down Beetles being used to transport parts around the factory.
In 1948 the VW van was born and released to the world at the Geneva Motor Show. This first VW van was known as a Type 2, the Type 1 being the original Beetle.
The simplicity and versatility of the VW van allowed it to be produced in many different forms for many different roles, these included milk floats, ambulances, flatbed pick-ups, delivery vans, buses and of course it’s most popular form as a camper van.
In 1967, VW Camper Vans evolved from having a split windscreen design to having a bay window style windscreen, wind up windows and a top speed of 80mph. Further improvements included bigger engines (up to 2000cc) and better reliability.
Good campervans can be hard to find. This website has been designed for the VW Camper Van buyer and brings together a number of your chosen items in one easy to use website.
