23 years ago I had a brown Type 2 Holdworth level 3 conversion reg HGP***K that I drove 12,000 miles around Europe in. I’d love to know it’s whereabouts now. A few years ago it was showing as no longer taxed but I noticed it’s popped back up on the radar and is now beige. I’d love to see how it’s doing and either make an offer on it or at least be given the chance of first refusal when the current owners decide to part company with it. I have photos to prove prior ownership. Any help finding it appreciated. Thanks
Hi Darren,
With some members having multiple vans, we cannot keep a track of all number plates for all members but currently that one is not listed with a member. Other popular places are http://www.thelatebay.com and the Facebook groups latebay.fb and BayPride, someone on one of those may know about it.
If you track it down, let us know.
Regards,
Nick (Website manager)
i left the club back in May when i sold my van and informed you of the decision at the time. i forgot to cancel my paypal transfer and it has just taken another £25.00 out of my account. please could you credit this back to me asap?
apologies and thanks
Hi Barry,
If you have a birth letter from Volkswagen to show the proper age of the vehicle, the DVLA should be able to provide you with an age related plate. there are times when that is not possible but the folks at the DVLA can often advise over a phone call.
Hi, proud new owners of a 1976 Westy originally from California (the kids are besotted)
hoping to get lots of inspiration and advice to keep her running smoothly
Just about to collect a 74 converted panel van. Completely empty, so a blank canvas 🙂 . So will need lots of advice on my journey to get it how i want.
Cheers Chris
Hello All! Just thought I would say hi to all the campers out there, Happy to finally be part of the fun and hopefully get to many of these camper events as possible to meet you all :)!
Just bought a 1979 Moonraker after months of looking !!!! 😀
It can be hard finding a good value van for the money you pay but it sounds like you have done it the right way and taken your time.
We hope that you enjoy yourself being part of the club.
Why not write a short article about your search for your perfect camper van. We’d love to publish it online and in the magazine.
Happy camping!!
I have just bought my first T2 bay window with the intention to fully restore her after completing a Series 3 Land Rover. However, after taking her for a ride last night ahead of stripping her down I think I will need help and some medication 🙂 So joined the team here for help over the year(s) ahead. Good to be on board.

Congratulations on the new addition. I’m sure she won’t let you down.

Me and my gf recently bought a 72 t2. I’m glad I’ve found the right owners club. Can’t wait to see what I can learn from this website 🙂
Joining for mutual support

Just got my 1979 T2 Bay Devon Moonraker conversion back from restoration and looking forward to the rest of the summer.
Hi Peter,
Sounds like you got it back just in time for the good weather!!!
Enjoy your van – why not send some photos and we can run a story about your restoration???
Look forward to hearing from you.
All the best.

Hope the tlc goes well. Always good to hear off people who are new to VWs. By all means if you need help get in touch and we’ll see if we can help!
