That's what I love about this channel. You get normal people with normal cars and the quality is the same as with a 6 figure car.

I drove a T4 to move my furniture to another city a couple of years back and it, too, was the 1.9D with 60hp. I might need to add that it was a total hoopty with a good 30cm of play in the gear stick (when in gear lmao) and starting it cold was like firing up an old diesel locomotive. Slowest car I've driven but it was the most fun I've ever had behind the wheel of a car. And the best thing? Even with +400k Km on the odometer it was running just fine once it got going and took me safely from A to B with a shit ton of heavy furniture in the back.

This is what everyone wants to do when they're young and if they're really lucky, when they're older too.

Ahh, the Instagram van. These vans have skyrocketed in price ever since their popularity on Instagram.

Phillip Clark in Poland t4 are still mainly workhorses and you can buy them for cheap, unless it's a westfalia conversion or a syncro in good shape

T4 westfalias never really dropped in price, it's only because of diesel restrictions that we see a slight drop in popularity right now

To me, this channel is the celebration of the automobile. Beautiful design, form and function. Thank you for not discriminating and featuring vehicles that are beautiful in other ways! Its great to see million dollar cars most of us will probably only see on a screen. Please do continue to highlight vehicles the average person would attain, if they really tried!

If I watch just one hour of news it makes me want to run off and live this lifestyle immediately! The world is going crazy and this seems like such a peaceful way to live.

I really like the simple ones you do like this one, Ferraris and such are awesome but this is petrolicious for me

I this channel is not about the cars, but more like about the relationship between car and people.

With a 2.5l 5-cylinder TDI, this would have been perfect. T4s were such a giant leap towards modern driving experiences. We had a petrol T3 for our business and it was a slow, loud and fuel-consuming pain to drive, whereas a T4 - especially with the 2.5l 5-cylinder TDI was such a charm to drive (like a normal everyday car), even the long-wheelbase/high-roof ones, considering that only 102 HP were pulling way more than two tons in an ambulance vehicle setup.

I love camper vans, love petrolicious... but I don't understand why this one is so special and desirable to have it featured here.

morsch agreed, a t1,2, or even 3 would be more fitting. This is just an old plumbers van with a bed in back. Could be a Chevy Astro or a Chevy.

I have the 58 plate version, bought it 2 years ago and love every minute in it.

I literally bought one 2 hours ago with exactly the same engine, hoping to have some good times with it.

Callum, great stuff lad! And what a fantastic way to spend your 20's, I travelled extensively when I was in my 20's and early 30's and the lessons I learned, memories I made, etc were countless and have stayed with me to this day (20+ yes later!) As for your VW, I think I'd much rather have one of these than one of the uber expensive, 21 window vans (or 23? 28? I'm not that familiar) that you can't drive, at least not like you drive this one. Back in the 90's I rode my mid 60's BMW R65 across the British Isles and there were definitely days I wished I had a rig with a trailer like yours just so I could get the occasional break from the elements. You've got the ultimate situation here Callum. You've got a fantastic German engineered VW van, it's kitted out with everything you need, you've got your motorbike trailing behind, and most importantly you've got your youth and its sounds to me like you appreciate all that. Nothing better than being young, having a great car or bike, and having nothing to do but go forward and explore new things and see new places. Keep it up Callum! Great vid mate!

I really wish I could spend my 20’s doing that sort of thing. Unfortunately, I fell for the trap of college education and now I’m stuck working to pay for my outrageous loans, instead of having the freedom or time off from work to travel. “Getting your life together” and “starting a career” right after high school has to be the most crippling, miserable social disease to touch today’s youth. There’s no room for adventure in modern life when you’re so busy being responsible and planning for your all too distant retirement at the age of 22.

the music track is too loud, drowns out the speaking. getting to be the norm on these vids

Not just for these vids, this disease seems to be a trend in any kind ov video or movie, even those high-brow professional Hollywood productions. Always, the music (or vfx for that matter) is far too loud and the language is far too silent, so you have to adjust the volume continuously. It's really annoying!

Mint! Everything I love about owning our T4 Westfalia shared right here. Slow, thirsty but sounds great with the 5-cyl AAF :)

That was a refreshing segment from the norm.

This channel is a treasure.

Such a good and inspiring story

Our dear friends

Awesome video! I’d love to have an old van of some kind to tour around in and bring my motorcycle with me🏎💨

Nice video! I have a 1995 westy and parts are really hard to find here in the US. Thanks for posting!

Longer videos if possible! Great work as always!

Since a year ago, I've been looking to buy a VW T4 Westfalia or California. But now with a video on youtube featuring a T4 prices will skyrocket for sure !

Ahh a new video perfect!

The only thing you have to be aware with these is the danger of rust. If it isn't rusty, then you're good, otherwise you may have to replace some floor panels or rockers.

First camper video but really really good

Rok espresso press! I have one, use every day!

My actual dream home. one day... imagined my dog and i live there :)

Welcome to the family:-)

I wish I could say their choice of lifestyle is unique and individual, but it is only just a trend that young people follow. Thanks for inflating the cost of old VW Buses 40-50 times the original MSRP. I hope young people continue to follow this “Van life” trend, because now My 2 old Westfalia Campers have turned to Gold😁

cool car mate, my dad had a 1.9tdi one

Amazing

You are good job, hi from Russia to you!

Cool rig

Nice van, nice video. Axe is a bit sinister lol.

Clean - Thanks. Still waiting for usa markets to have access to: Six speed vans Diesels More high tops Heavy duty suspension options Awd Multi use bumpers for racks, fuel carry etc 4wheel option Lowers replaceable brush- friendly panels Decent clearance Dual alternators Secondary battery Varied interior layouts If Toyota ever wakes up to the scaled down 2018 recreational vehicle market... game over

mmmm, VW love.

I love coffee and cars ! Check out Seinfeld’s Comedians in cars getting coffee. Coffee & cars perfect together !

Nope. I’ll take a nice hotel please. You enjoy the journey, I’ll enjoy the exploration at the other end, with no bad back, and a full breakfast. Did I mention room service?

Looks like fun..

I know a lance larsen would love this vehicle

What is that coffee press at the beginning?

This is petrolicious and that is diesel. I feel violated.

you guys usually make quality films, but the warp stabilizer on this one was way too noticeable and almost made me sick...

1.9D non T..Oh my...You are VERY patient...Iam used to slow cars, but this one is new level of laziness. :-))) 2,4D is bad, but this one is really really slow.

Petrolicious is one big advert for 'enthusiasts' to pimp their businesses or for business to spam product placement.

Big mirrors in this T4

Why not pickups ?

240,000 miles isn’t really that much. Well I guess it is for a Volkswagen lol. My 2005 Land Cruiser is at 265,000 miles and it’s still at the beginning of its life.

Can’t understand much. Can’t you translate it in a more common English? (English is not my native tongue). Otherwise, a very interesting and well made video!

Audio levels are too low. From your past videos it looks as though the quality of the shots as taken a back seat. That drone shot was visibly low quality, you can see post stabilization in some shots, I'm not hating but make sure quality control is looked over.

That is not coffe, that is some brown sewage water from the looks of it

This video was 98% panning around. Made me feel claustrophobic by the end. Please, invest in a good wide-angle.

what was this rubbish? A cross promotion?

The t3 are way better

Bad cinematography, short cuts, miserable overview
