VOLKSWAGEN TRANSPORTER - TDI - BLUEMOTION - Short Review

Last weekend I had to drive this bus for a ride of 400 Km so before bringing it back the next day , I wanted to make a short review about this fantastic VW Bus.

Before the drive I had some doubts to drive the whole trip , but with my crew around me , it was very easy , and no pain in the back after the long drive ..in one word Lovely.

The fuel consumption we also test in this video and learn that this Diesel bus uses like 35 liters to drive 390 KM - so make your calculations.

The specs are found on the VW site and here you can find the most important stuff..
I was looking for a 6 seat in the models but just found the 5 and 7 seat models in the list , but could not find any one ..never the less this one had 6 seats , 3 in the front including the driver and 3 at the back..so maybe they call that 5 seats.
