i think the crazy bus prices are when there selling for over $200.000 dollers,if you look at the price of a westy so42 in the states and then ship it to the uk,then strip it and restore it to that condition youl understand that the price is more than fair,people do say that an expensive price is crazy because they dont get it,and cant aford that price, unfortunetly the prices are just going to keep going up as these vehicles are more and more sought after.good if you own one just not great if you dont,if you look at beetle prices some split bugs and ovals are mad money but they cost that price to restore to those standards.why should vws not be in the same price bracket as the the other expensive cars.:smile:
