Campervans for Sale 2022 Volkswagen Caddy California LWB – High Spec, Compact & Clever
Volkswagen Caddy California Maxi (LWB) 2.0 TDI Automatic
These little treasures are hard to come by — especially in automatic, with the 2.0L engine, and with all the trimmings! I’m sad to let her go, but it’s time to upgrade to something bigger for longer road trips, as we need more berths.
Weather is a bit sketchy this week so the photos are a bit thrown together – I will update with fresh photos when it’s dry out!
She’s the ideal day-to-day vehicle — drives like a car, even fully loaded for a road trip, still seats 5, and offers bags of space. And she doubles up as a neat little camper with a full-size double bed and pull-out kitchenette. Excellent visibility when driving, and economical too, at around 49 MPG.
