And a walkthrough. I see so a few nice modern touches but many compromises, not least of which the rear seats, lack of storage and the interior table setup. --- ### — 2024-04-22T10:59:02+0200 (Apr 22, 2024) > [Corradobrit said:](/goto/post?id=698255) > > The DNA will be unmistakable.

Buying a model labelled "Urban" and converting it to a swamper seems like an oxymoron to me! --- ### — 2024-04-22T11:01:52+0200 (Apr 22, 2024) I like the nugget but the inside of this is awful! Not really sure why they have bothered to kick out another model with so many and they already struggle with building vans in an acceptable time scale. They need to invest more in uk dealers and manufacturing than design!!!! --- ### — 2024-04-22T11:05:39+0200 (Apr 22, 2024) > [Webbah\_in\_Switzerland said:](/goto/post?id=698262) > > Buying a model labelled "Urban" and converting it to a swamper seems like an oxymoron to me! > > Click to expand...

Looks like the Cali concept, small and cramped. The ability to walk thru past nugget / westfalia joker designs was their best feature. They might have produced this to take sales from VW + avoids an alu roof which is more prone to corrosion / damage. --- ### — 2024-04-22T12:35:19+0200 (Apr 22, 2024) > [Ch1pbutty said:](/goto/post?id=698272) > > Looks like the Cali concept, small and cramped. > > The ability to walk thru past nugget / westfalia joker designs was their best feature.

Or they can't get a Multivan base vehicle from VW to convert so they are left with the Ford as the VW commercial is not yet available. --- ### — 2024-04-22T12:53:08+0200 (Apr 22, 2024) > [WelshGas said:](/goto/post?id=698279) > > Or they can't get a Multivan base vehicle from VW to convert so they are left with the Ford as the VW commercial is not yet available. > > Click to expand... Yes, that’s my understanding. A panel van version of the Multivan doesn’t exist, the cost for converters would be astronomical to strip out and start again.This leaves us with a VW Multivan California and aftermarket conversions based on the VW / Ford T7. --- ### — 2024-04-22T12:58:17+0200 (Apr 22, 2024) > [The Blue Merle said:](/goto/post?id=698264) > > I like the nugget but the inside of this is awful!
