The volkswagen caledonia. new VW campervan conversion.

If you love the idea of owning one of the iconic old Volkswagen campervans but need something practical, reliable and new, the VW Caledonia by Sussex Campervans is perfect for you.

The name Volkswagen is practically synonymous with campervans, so here at Sussex Campervans we’re happy to offer our own range of Volkswagen campervans. They're based on the latest Volkswagen (VW) T6 vans, with their excellent reliable, low-emission Euro 6 diesel engines with AdBlue and all the 21st Century luxuries you’d expect in a new VW camper. You can buy stock, or have one built to order.

VW T6 camper Conversions

The first time we jumped into a Volkswagen T6-based campervan we were really pleased - it drives like a car, with plenty of oomph to get up hills or cruise on the motorway. Our Volkswagen Caledonia campervan is shorter than some estate cars, such as the BMW 5 series, so you can drive one anywhere. It’s pretty eye-catching, too – a new VW campervan icon in the making. You’ll turn heads in a Volkswagen Caledonia from Sussex Campervans, so don’t forget to wave to fellow campervan drivers on the road.

Unique features in the Sussex Campervans Caledonia range include our own design of rock and roll bed - a double seat with seatbelts that converts swiftly into a comfy double bed. Then there's the 'SX Upgrade' which has made campervanning even easier with the under-body heater and underslung LPG tank fitted as standard, the only options people add tend to be a solar panel, a bike rack or an awning. Daniel explains more in this video - Electricity, Solar, Gas and Heating: The Latest for Your New Campervan.

VW CamperVAN price

The VW Caledonia starts from £68,995 and you can specify many extra design touches to make it uniquely yours.

If the VW Caledonia isn't for you, don't worry - we have a range of different campervan conversions available to choose from. We also have electric campervans available for those of you who are looking to reduce your carbon footprint.

Keeping you on the road

Winterising your campervan

Using your campervan all year round is the best way to keep it in good condition. But if you know it will be parked up for a while we can prepare the water and heating systems for winter to ensure you can make a quick getaway in the spring!

Choose our Built To Order service and we'll prepare a specification for your approval

Once you're happy with your order, we'll as you to sign it and pay £1,000 to book the workshop time for us to build your new campervan.
Half the price of your campervan is payable when we purchase your new vehicle.
The remainder is payable once your camper is released from the workshop to our pre-delivery inspection (PDI) team.
As soon as your camper passes it's PDI we'll send the details you need, so you can tax and insure the van from the day you're coming to collect it. On that day we'll give you a full handover to explain how everything works.
And once you have purchased your campervan - we offer a full range of servicing and after care, including repairs, MOTs, Winterisation Service and Habitation Service.
Think you may want some extra modifications or upgrades later? We're here to help you with that, too.
