1978 Westfalia Conversion 

Waltzin Matilda  £32,995

Waltzin Matilda was one of our full restorations from around ten years ago. We've done a number of buses like this - unique in every way designed by VWDU and the customer. To create a bespoke, extremely cool, head-turning camper that would win you a trophy at any VW show.

We can say with absolute confidence that our restorations are a cut above the rest, but don't take our word for it.  Come and see Waltzin Matilda for yourself and tell us what you think.
