Nice! I do think they look very cool
Not sure how doable one would be as a camper - not likely to find out just yet, not at their current prices!

Cracking looking vehicle!
What does the owner think of it Dan ?
I am also a fan of the look but if I was buying a BEV van at the minute I think I would still have to favour the transit.

This is his 3rd day of ownership - he's loving it so far - first time charging it up on a public charger (ours at the studio!).

Definitely a lot more space in the Transit - more space on the roof for a bank of solar panels too

Nahh it looks good in any colour I reckon, I imagine the after market panel and customizing community are all busy coming up with nice add ons to allow people to tweak their Buzz to their own aesthetic.
one day ...........
