Hi,

Anybody dealt with these guys, or better still bought a bus from them?

Reason being is that now that our old bus is sold (being collected next week!), we're once again travelling the long and winding (and often bumpy) road to our next bus

The good thing is that the missus has given the all-clear for a LHD, so that widens the catchment a little

This time we're after a runner - or something that requires very little initial repairs... Although if a special or rare model came up - and it needed work - it wouldn't be turned away if the price was right :wink:

So... any feedback on thecoolvw or other similar importers/sellers would be very useful.

Thank you,


Mike

Mine came from Tim at Roadhouse too. Always has great buses in stock that you can go and view and not have to rely on photos

Well I've bought my bus from Albert at thecoolvw, and you get what you pay for.
My bus need(ed)s a lot of work, but overall it's healthy.

You can get horror stories from everyone, fact is that most of the times it's all about (great) expectations and then reality hits.

Buses that are 40 years old or even older have had a number of owners and there's allways a few that don't know how to work on a car.

That's when you get bodge jobs. I know I've had my share.

My 2 cents

Hi - we bought our bus from Southwest Splitz (in Exeter) a couple of years ago - so pleased with him - they were great and get lots of imports in.

Good luck with your search 8)
