I think it's safe to say I got the full VW experience and what an experience it was. I'll be uploading a video on Wednsday with John the owner of this camper, talking all things about this beautiful VW Westfalia! 🤙🏼

New batt, adjust the idle, new fuel filter + fuel system flush, she'll be a peach.

These videos just get better & better … never a dull moment with you will… love it! 😂 ❤

Im english and i approve this content for overseas markets..... i hope that people thinking of going to the uk watch this first because its the most realistic representation of britishness ive ever seen. This guy is so down to earth and funny its making me homesick

This series just keeps getting better and better Will. This was like a comedy from the 1970’s 😂😂love it. 🤭

This brings back so many memories of my childhood and high-school, my Mom has one of these. It was always an adventure! She still has it too, just haven't ridden in it in years and years. In high-school it was her only vehicle. Now she has a couple others to choose from.

Since this series started. You seem so.much happier now. Weather it's having Ben with you now or the change up, you seem a lot happier. Loving the new series. The VW bus is one of my favorite vans. Seeing you without power steering was hysterical. Personally love no power steering, feel more connected to the vehicle.

Used to see these broken down all the time when I was young. 😊

Probably one of the two most valuable vehicles you have tried so far! Apart from the 'engine' issues I really thought this camper really 'delivered' on its promise.I would buy one in a heart beat. Fabulous.

The leak in the morning is probably from the sink/waterpomp, it's at the exact same spot. And absolutely love these videos Will! Great idea to explore different vanbuilds every week and maybe get inspired to include in your own van in the future.

Will can I suggest a video idea. Interviewing all the owners of the campers/vehicles you've camped in. The main question is "What's the story behind this camper / vehicle setup" It could be a compilation video with clips from different interviews.

That was a fun video. I've had a similar experience with my 71 T2, looks like one of the idle channels on the carb was blocked so it went out when it is warm and the auto choke wears off. It starts normally if you leave the Ignition off for about 5 minutes, since the choke will reengage. Also in general, if you're trying to start it with an already warm engine, you'll have to start it with full gas, and NOT pumping it. Otherwise you'll drown the engine, which seems to have happened most of the time. To clean the idle channels you have two nozzles on the right side of the carb, which can be cleaned fairly easily by piercing through with a small needle/wire and blowing them out by hand. A temporary fix is to turn the topmost screw on the gas lever in the back out as much as it goes, which will add some gas all the time without you having to hold it down.

Love this new style of video Will! After watching all of your old videos through Nepal, stealth camping in the Ford Galaxy, to the Fiat Ducato build - I can't believe the production value and presenting skills now. This reminds of me of the old Top Gear and it seems like you're happy doing this. Keep up the good work and looking forward to seeing more!

Dropping the clutch when starting older vehicles is actually a good thing to do, it gives the starter one less thing to turn.

Camping with style & stress. 😜

OMG Will, I've been pissing my pants with laughter from the first sec till last! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You really did get the FULL Westfalia Experience I might say! I felt exactly the same way, when I first drove off with my rental Daisy 🌼 If I would ever be able to get one of these for myself, I need an build-in mechanic to join me on my trips 😂😂😂

Way fun video. I can recall driving by a VW dealer when I was a kid and seeing one of these for sale week after week. It was a dream of mine to own one someday, but now I am glad the dream never became reality. 😅 Thanks, will, for some great content!

Hilarious, I laughed out loud when you fell out 🤣🤣🤣

You forget how much the modern vehicles do for you when you drive an old one don’t you, Brilliant as ever - have a great week, all the best, David 👍

I get the romance of a VW camper, I love the style, the history,... but I wouldn't want to travel any great distance in one. It would be fine for a couple of hours then a stopover I guess. Many years ago my wife and I were off to Cornwall from the Midlands on our annual surf pilgrimage. We overtook a VW camper on the M5, then stopped off at Gordano services so the dogs could have a pee. We overtook it again a while later. We arrived at our campsite, set up our caravan, pitched the awning, took the dogs for a walk, and then guess who arrives at the same campsite : -) I feel like it was a long day for that guy.

Cant beat a classic vw 🔥🔥

Will, I gotta say Ben is great support in the show. Love how he's just laughing behind the camera. Good to see another video where something goes wrong but the cooking section is perfect. The be camper looks awesome. I love the style, shape, wheels the shape of the roof, down to the front headlights.

Badly maintained these vans were driven all over the world for years no problems that engine is normally very reliable still good video

the trick to slowing down in an old manual vehicle is to gear down before approaching an intersection..that way it'll be less work on the breaking...I own a 1967 MG B manual convertible with no power steering...it's truly a workout but a much more enjoyable one than a gym...

Oh hell yeah. A true classic that. Loved it.

There are jump points under the bonnet of the Ducato so no need to go near the battery under the seat floor

Its like a cheap version of Top Gear, loving the comedic value.

Loving the content mate! You've really found a niche theme for your channel that has massively evolved from when you built your own campervan! Hope to have a camper of my own one day soon. So you're an inspiration bro 👍🏻

Sums up old vehicles yes you can fix almost anything on them but you'll be doing it every week :D

Really appreciate the hardwork you did on the camera or off the camera dude keep going keep growing

A cracking wee van. I always wanted one of those when i was younger. I have to say though, looking at the issues you had (hilarious though they were) i might pass on getting one now. Great work though, Will. This 'series' seems to be suiting you down to the ground. Keep it going, mate!!

😂this brought back some memories of when I own a 1972 VW, lovely to look at, but for something so simple, they like to breakdown a lot

Will, this has been the best one yet. All them issues really highlighted how well you deal with problems and took them in your stride, brilliant video

Well that cheered me right up! Thank you! What a glorious cantankerous old VDub.

Older vehicles like this should be fully inspected at a qualified workshop before traveling more than 10 kilometers. But this is a fun experience and a little scary too 😅 • i'm watching from Melaka, Malaysia 🇲🇾🌺

What a stunning vehicle! Cracking video, every breakdown makes you stronger 😂

im loving youre vids. the the new way you have it now dose make for a new feel and uniq viewing. 'something i've learnt again is to do what u love and youll find a new easy path to the tasks of the day and be more happy with youre day and evenings, 'especially if its a a job and u find that change is calling, its defo a calling not to be scared of it. keep it up Will what ever wether what ever youre choice may be in years to come.

OMG as a fellow Westy owner I love love love this!

As 20 year olds we drove across America in one in 1975.Young hippies back then.

I had a 1972 Westie for over 20 years and we managed to put 160,000 kilometres on it, mostly with two adults and two kids. Great vehicle and mostly reliable. The one in your video is in lovely general condition, I imagine that some restoration has been done. I expect that the engine trouble is a minor problem, probably something dirty or needing adjustment. It's not a 1972 model though, it's a later model.

Fantastic series Will, really enjoying it. You look like your having so much fun.

Always have loved your videos, but they definitely are getting better and better. 😊

Great video had my 74 westy for 7 years only 1 breakdown.People think new vehicles don’t fail but as someone who works with them everyday they do on a regular basis and are far more costly to repair.Also had a T3 Westy for 9 years which never let us down apart from 1 puncture

As always, I absolutely loved the video Will. More power to you mate!

Really been enjoying these different types of videos! Keep it up will!

Classic Will in a classic VW !! Great video.

Loving ya videos Will, from the classic days of ya ford galaxy to now, this new series not only entertaining but really informative as well. Keep it up mate 😎👍

Love ur videos Will, your content is always on point that I actually think I’m there with you 😂 natural presenter, you keep it so real! X

Looking forward to this one! 🎉

I like the nostalgic look and feel of the VW. But old vehicles are always a ball ache. I prefer your new reliable van tbh. Great vid very entertaining as always. Thanks Will. Your content is very high level, your a natural at this.

Love his videos! Always a laugh! For an old Van condition is good van paint job is great!

Brilliant!

Best video yet Will, love this series

So enjoyable Will.. you’ve come so far some since the galaxy days.. loved the content and humour and passion you have.. keep it up fella

Best Van and Best new style video so far! 😁😆

You are so brave! Great video, i look forward to the next one

Fantastic Will 🎉🎉

Thanks guys as usual great viewing. Love the way you care for you furry babies. Look forward to your next trip ❤

Just brilliant will xx

VW always needed to be owned by mechanics. LOL! And push starting vehicles was ‘normal’ in the day. It was quite a memory watching you deal with their peculiarities. Great video.

OMG, this video is absolutely bonkers and hilarious. I laughed from start to finish. You get better every week Will. Can't wait for your next adventure.

Absolutely brilliant. 👍

You falling was the best laugh ❤

couldn't wait for this weeks video and boy oh boy it didn't disappoint !!! - beautiful little van and hilarious content - what more could u want !!

Look forwards to our next van and adventure to love your videos your a lovely soul happy one 😂😂😂😂

You persevered very well.

Lovely to see this old van, we used to holiday in one of these as a family of six!!! My parents still have the van !!

Hi Will, just found your channel with these different vehicles etc. Really enjoying watching them. When i was a child we had a VW campervan,not like this one tho. Cooker was under the front passenger seat, toilet, 2 hammock beds in the pop up bit, double bed at the back, big table in the middle, even a storage cupboard. Brought back memories as i lost my dad in 2021. So thank you. Just researched the model - 1972 T2 campervan dormobile.

Thanks for sharing Will.. great video as always. Mucho Love From Your Friend In Michigan Tam 💜💜

banger of a video yet again!!

Great video Will keep them coming.❤

For me will this video was like watching tv , the editing and skill and the hole proration was top notch and you deserve big numbers from this video . Hats off to you ❤

Steering Wheel looks like a Bus Steering Wheel! 😆

Loved this Will & when you fell out of the van I did laugh out loud, sorry. Can't wait to see what comes next 😊

I’m really enjoying this series. I recon that driving that van was challenging for you however classic vehicles will make you appreciate the modern convenience of the vans with the new technology. I’ve never had a vehicle that hadn’t powered steering. I recon I’d be bricking it with the need to maintain those revs and go round the windy country roads😅

I love your videos, you are hilariously funny, and no matter how down I feel, watching your videos pick me up real fast. Keep them coming... 🤣

Had a 1971 Bay camper, looked fab but it was the worse driving vehicle I’ve ever owned. Changing gear was like stirring a bowl of porridge and was so slow that pedestrians used to overtake me on the pavement but it was cooler than a box of ice 😏🥰🤣

keep up the good work mate, be nice too see you in the furture do this over seas.

Lovely video.

Absolutely brilliant Will! This is the best vid yet! For me the best line in the whole episode when you said ... "Get out the road please ... I can't stop ... won't stop!!!" ... that's your "catchphrase" right there mate ... just pukka wukka awesome sauce!!!

Awesome Video

Great video! I have a 1972 VW bay that try's to find different ways to break every time I use it.

My family had one like this but ours had a split front windscreen happy days

Never a dull moment! Loads of this is Hilarious

Had a few of them, at least when they go wrong the engine's are so simple to work on, had so many great many happy memories in them , now I'm an old man I like more comfort, great video will

My uncle had a 1984 model before he died he was the first person to teach me manual transmission had a lot of good memories in that thing

You went full Norman Wisdom on this one pal! Absolutely pissed myself when you fell out the van, even more so when instead of helping the presenter to his feet and asking if he’s ok the cameraman just pissed himself laughing too! Comedy gold 😂 Entertainment factor off the scale on this one… Loved it! 👍🏻👌🏻

What fun, cracking video we did laugh. You are definitely game for a laugh Will 😂

Love your videos, you are great and you always make me laugh.

so funny watching them fight with this beautiful old van.

I actually just found your channel and I'm loving the new content!!! I've laughed more in the past hour than i have all week. I just subscribed, looking forward to more camping adventures in wierd/ wacky camper set ups!!! USA here 🇺🇸

Oh Will you do make me giggle . fantastic vlog . so jealous .you cant beat the VW t1 westfalia keep them adventures coming .🤙🤙🤙🚌

Love these old campers. Wish i could own one. 😊

I had a ‘76 bay window and absolutely loved it. Best thing about old veedubs is when the stop working, which they will, you only need 3 spanner’s and a screwdriver to fix ‘em. If they were better on fuel I’d have one tomorrow. Will, those mozzies looked like they were queuing up to have a feast on you while you slept. Cheers for the content mate. 👍🏻

Who needs to watch comedy on the TV when we can be entertained by you Will, pure genius.

This series is good, very entertaining. Regarding the VW, me thinks that it still has the infamous Solex carb installed; total nightmare, over-engineered crap. I've had experience of the carb's accelerator jet popping out, getting sucked into the inlet manifold, and completely ceasing the engine of my Beetle (many years ago). A carburetor for the masochist. Keep up the good work Will.🙂

This was fun. Loved it.

This is so much fun watching you will 😂😂😂😂

Brilliant video…. I must admit I did laugh when you fell out the van 😂loving your new content keep up the good work x

Welcome to the old days my friend, I remember these old bangers very well, never again 😊 Have fun 😂 Keep up the good work Will you legend 👍
