Battle BAYvT6 of the Buses

There are a number of obvious reasons why a modern-day Transporter has the edge over one that’s potentially 50 or 60 years of age. First things first - they drive like a modern-day car, particularly if you opt for one of the higher power 200PS versions. Secondly – they shouldn’t be rusty in any way, not least because Volkwagen’s anti corrosion warranty guarantees them for 12 years from the date of first registration.

Great news for anyone thinking about going for the new-age option.
