Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Finally got one.

    My god after 1 year of looking around for a van finally decided on getting a 2nd hand Ballina Camper 4 motion Frontline Camper with 40000km on the clock one owner and she just couldn't handle the size any more (she was 73). Very happy with it and what we paid for it and all the extras that came with it.

    Now to deck it out how I would like it.

    Awesome, its been a long wait, should be in good nick with that low km and an older owner.

    Any major changes to the frontline design?

      Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.

          As far as i can the design hasn't change much in years. It doesn't have that big swing out cooker (thank god). Got it home and it took me 5 hrs to clean it (the way i like it). When you got into it it was full or some strange hair ... Pubes maybe ... yuk... lol. Only kidding the old owner had a dog, i hope it was dog hair. All i got to do now is trick it up a bit without the other half noticing it a bit. A big white van is a bit bland.

            Yeah, Im not a fan of the swing out cooker as well, nor old person pubes lol.

            It won't take much to trick it up, Black rims, Black strip paling the bottom, although anything changed on a white van won't be heard to miss, so your other half will know.

            Mine is white as well, but I've ordered a Fiamma black F45s awning, i've picked up a cheap spare set of new VW 17inch steel rims to paint black..and then get a signwriter to make up a lower decal.

              I am going to paint the rims black and the covers a different colour. You can get some awesome vinyl decals on fleabay for a pretty good price.

                  If you have not luck with eBay try AliExpress for some gear.
