I think it looks good , the review sounds good , I had a T6 for 5 years , don't see this isn't as good but could be wrong of course . The Top Gear review was positive. I'm looking forward to seeing it soon. Can't imagine they will continue the T6.

Called in at my local VW dealer this morning to collect a part I had on order. The sales guy said that one of his colleagues had been away on a training course the past two days (Thurs/Fri) for the new California. He hadn’t yet heard any feedback from his colleague as to how similar it was to the Concept version, but presumably other dealers were on this same course, so we should start to get feedback any time soon !

I think on listening / watching the reviews in the videos the concept shown is about what it is going to be

The concept looked fantastic but I severely doubt it would be practical. There were some really nice design cues to being the calli into the 21st century but it is just too small!  
  
I’m looking forward to seeing how it looks and operates as a camper and how many of the futuristic design cues made it to production.
