Just wanted to leave some positive feedback for the VolksWorld eBay Store. Last Friday 8th August I ordered a couple of their great guides; Keeping Your Bus Alive and Keeping Your Legend Alive. VolksWorld Jon even combined shipping to the USA and confirmed within minutes of me placing the order that they’d be shipped the same day.
I couldn’t believe it on Monday afternoon when the postman showed up with a stiff brown envelope containing not only the two hard-to-come-by guides, but a couple of complimentary VolksWorld Dash Plaques!
Thanks Jon for (a) the fastest international shipping I’ve ever received, (b) the excellent communication throughout the transaction, (c) the excellent guides which arrived in first class condition and (d) the VolksWorld Dash Plaques! Nice touch…
For anyone thinking of ordering from the VolksWorld eBay Store, I can’t recommend it enough!
It’s almost that time when the kids go back to school, and what better way to send them off with a brand new shoulder bag, pencil case and wallet from Urchin!
The canvas shoulder bag is a cool sand color featuring the iconic VW Bus on the front and would make a great school bag.
There’s also a matching canvas pencil case with retro camper van design and of course to complete the collection, add a VW themed canvas wallet large enough to hold all the lunch money you can give them!
Current prices:
Camper Van Bag £10.99
Camper Van Pencil Case £4.99
Camper Van Wallet £4.99

Just found another unique Volkswagen Bus product over at the wonderful Lazybone web site. It seems one of the latest crazes in the home computer world is the huge range of USB memory sticks available on the market and the VW Bus stick is sure to be a winner.
The majority of “novelty” memory sticks are made of plastic which in my opinion makes them look cheap and more of a toy than a useful took. Not so the VW Bus stick - these memory sticks are die cast and definitely a nice accessory to own. The lights will even flicker on and off when the unit’s plugged in and receiving data!
At just 256MB, storage capacity isn’t great , but is just enough to hold those essential files needed for everyday activities. The VW Bus is priced at $29.58, available in either Red or Green and comes complete with USB extension cable.
Kapowgifts, in operation since 1999, have a great selection of Volkswagen gifts and novelties including t-shirts, mugs, badges, bags, coasters and more.
One of my favorites is the Haynes retro-styled alarm clock based on the classic VW Transporter car manual design.
Priced at just £9.99 (approx. $19.50), the clock offers great value for money. Check out some of the other Volkswagen themed products available here.
This wonderful wooden Volkswagen Bus was created by master sculpture Lee Stoetzel who is:
very interested in the far-reaching power of nature.
The VW Bus is a one-to-one scaled 75″ x 165″ x 67 1/2″, and is crafted from pecky cypress wood and steel.
Stoetzel has a unique view of the environment and states:
We build houses and think that we have controlled space, yet nature winds its way into those materials. The sculptures I have built light up to emphasize the power of natural form.
Fancy owning the wooden bus? No problem….if you have $65,000 you can part with….
Question: What could possibly be monumental enough to draw 71,000 Volkswagen enthusiasts from 28 countries?
Answer: One huge party celebrating a Volkswagen icon - the unforgettable Volkswagen Bus!
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles hosted the 60 years of the VW Bus celebration in Hannover, Germany in the fall of 2007.
Judging by the following video, one thing is certainly evident; the Volkswagen Bus continues to live in the hearts of Volkswagen enthusiasts worldwide.
