2021 VW California Ocean T6.1 Walkaround with NEW Steering Wheel | California Chris

Today I'm showing you around our new 2021 VW California Ocean T6.1 with the NEW style steering wheel featuring the updated Volkswagen logo. If you want a more in-depth video on the California steering wheel, stay tuned to the channel as that will be our next video!

This California Ocean has a host of optional extras on it, so make sure to watch to see how they work including the smooth electric sliding door (one of my favourite extras).

Let me know what you think. What's missing? What isn't needed? I can't wait to hear.

Thanks for watching! California Chris.

Superb.

We placed our order with you in December and can not wait to take delivery of our ocean! Looking forward to the new wheel video 🤙🏻

Very nice. But shouldn't the sliding door be on the nearside?

Hi Chris. We keep watching your very informative videos. You have excellent knowledge! We ordered VW C. Ocean back in December 2020. We can't wait to get it :) Anyway, there is a long delay (totally understandable) & the built week not confirmed yet. In the meantime, we realised we want to add one more feature - dynamic chassis control. I remember it was available back in Dec. 2020. Now my dealer can't find it in the list. Since you are so well informed, can I please ask you, is DCC really not available anymore? Is there really no way how we can adjust our order?

Thanks Chris - great videos as always.
One question: is there through load space so that I can put ski's in when travelling please?

Hi Chris, is there a feature that tells you the wind direction so you can make an informed choice of direction to park with the tent up! Also, what is the limit on recommended wind strength for the tent to be up & the awning? Thank you :)

Very nice. Next time can you give us a quick look at the interior when the roof is down? Is there much overhang? Is there room to sit and have a quick cuppa if you don't want to pitch camp etc. There's loads of room in my current bungalow on wheels but my last pop top felt more like a trailer tent when I was on the move!

Hello Chris. Am currently very close to buying a new T6.1 California. If possible could you show me how to remove the rear bench seats. I currently have a converted transporter that i use for superbike racing. So i use the van to transport my bike. Then once at the racetrack I unload the bike and live in the van. As i can be at the racetrack for 3-4 nights.
Thanks Chris.

Does the 6.1 have a Travel Mode for the headlights? Also how easy is it to change from MPH to KPH if you're travelling in Europe?

[gillianyeaman]

Can you use co-ordinates to select a destination on the sat nav?

Hey Chris,
Can you tell us something about the DCC dynamic system. We have now ordered it from california Ocean. How and where do we use it to make the ride comfortable and quiet? Tnx

Hey Chris, great video, but could you tell me if there is any symbol on control unit that indicates charging battery when car is on(while driving or idling)?
Cause we dont get any symbol unless the car is connected to the mains, a and it seems that alternator is not charging the leisure batteries at all while driving. (6.1 Coast)

Hi Chris.If you order copper bronze/ white how do you get the white awning rail ? I have seen some with white and some with black.I know you can order the optional silver but I prefer white with this colour combo which I what I’d like to order.Thanks.

Hi Chris. Thanks for all the very informative videos which i have been trawling through :-). We have just had our Coast delivered and i wondered if you could provide advice on things to do for storing it during lockdown (it is in the garage so under cover). Any advice on whether trickle chargers are needed, or how often to plug in esp as we cant use it during lockdown so its not being driven. Thanks and take care. Yv

Would have been nice to see interior with roof up and what the bed is like.

[liamvine]

Chris or anyone else, what is the Z2c on the options list?

[Swanseaguy]

Is there a quicker option to raise the roof?

[JerseyStyle]

When is it coming to United States 🇺🇸 🤔🤔

[travelcampervansandmore]

But the front and rear badges are still the old style one!

[mikepalmer]

Think I would rather have a professionally converted 6.1 much better value and can be better equipped
