Owning a VW is a way of life

And one I intend to enjoy to the full.

Bart and I took a very long road trip today (not in distance but time), to collect our new baby. She/he (I haven't decided yet) is a 2005 SWB VW Transporter T30 2 ltr turbo-diesel, fully colour-coded, ply-lined, insulated and fully carpeted van. With full chrome pack, including front side and rear chrome bars, front grill and all door handles have had the chrome magic worked on them. For fun there is a tv, dvd, iPod, blue tooth, stereo head unit up front. It also has a 15" tv in the rear with a custom built bass box and amp to drive it. It's got blue LED lights twinkling in the roof lining. Bliss.

I am opening up the blog for name suggestions. I think he is a boy, but I'm open to suggestions.

Stay tuned no matter how good he looks now I will be adding my own stamp over the next few months/years so I will update pictures and stories as things develop.

PS I think we have come up with a name it's Storm, this came to me as I was driving home today(though it only just shone into my consciousness). Where the black wing mirror arm meets the body of the mirror housing it looked to me a little like a Storm Troopers arm so Storm it is. As this name may score me some points with the old ball and chain I think it's a done deal. I would like to thank you all for at least thinking about it for the 10 seconds it has taken you to read this far down.

You may need to turn your screen around, sorry I did try to spin it but hay.
