Get Comfortable in this New Customized Multivan

Comfort isn’t always the first word that comes to mind when we talk about customizing, but at Custom-Bus it’s what matters most. Pair it with Teutonic minimalism and what you get is pretty cool.

Now Custom-Bus have taken their customizing to a new level by teaming up with designer Nils Holger Moormann. Together they’ve created a bus that you want to curl up in as much as you want to drive.custombus-nils-holger-moormann-camper-van_dezeen_1568_0

The team started with a T6 Multivan and got rid of everything they could. They then added laminated wood cabinets that are edged with oak, a stainless steel sink and gas stove, and oak floors, sides, and even ceiling. There’s also a sofa bed upholstered in merino wool that fits two.

“The camping buses available on the market are often influenced either by exuberant luxury or too many fake materials,” Holger Moorman tells German magazine Dezeen. “We enjoyed the challenge to find a new way with honest and high quality materials, and worked with a mixture of traditional natural and modern high-tech materials.”

The Moormann Camper can be purchased from Custom Bus, as can a variety of other customized buses. Custom-Buses sell for around 50,000 EUR and are made in Germany, so you’ll probably have to dream about one rather than in one for now.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.
