Dub Dub and Away Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 East Dulwich seems to have a large number of VW campervan and Beatle owners and with ourselves and East Dulwich Campers being in the area it has struck me that maybe there is benefit in forming a VW owners club for East Dulwich. The idea would be to meet periodically (say every 4 ? 6 weeks) in a local pub or other venue, share knowledge, show our vehicles off, ask questions and where possible look at getting discounts on parts and other things related to owning and driving a VW. Open to ideas and suggestions on how to organise and run a club of this ilk, but thought it would be fun to meet and talk with other enthusiasts and to share knowledge where we can. If you are interested then please either PM me directly or put a response on here and in a few weeks I will get back to anyone who responds with more details should people think it?s a good idea.TimDub Dub and Away Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/62272-calling-all-vw-campervan-and-beatle-owners/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
se22cat Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I bet that really friendly bloke with a heavily customised (and incredibly cool) red campervan sometimes seen around Goose Green would be interested.

Ebeb2 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Sorry to resurrect such an old thread, but there are tons of VW vans in ED and I thought today a EDF page to share info would be great. We have a T4 LHD VW Westfalia, called Brigit. She's a beloved part of the family although starting to need a fair amount of work. Did this VW owners group take off?

Dub Dub and Away Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 Hi ebeb2 As Seabag so elegantly mentioned, this thread is 5 years old and didn't get enough interest at the time. Happy to revisit the idea if others are interested but obviously with lockdown, meetups will be impossible but nothing to stop online / virtual discussions.
