The VW LT Florida Westfalia (#VWLTFlorida #ClassicCampers)
The 1989 VW LT Florida Westfalia has achieved cult status among campers . No surprise, this compact van combines living comfort with adventure vibes, and its clever floor plan makes it perfect for everyday use or epic road trips. But why do we miss this oldie so much? And how does it stack up against the modern VW Grand California?
Comfort and Efficiency in a Small Space ✨
The VW LT Florida Westfalia's biggest advantage is its layout. At just 5.20 meters long, it has everything for comfy living and camping: a cozy seating area that converts into a bed , a kitchenette with a gas stove and sink for whipping up camp meals , and a compact bathroom with shower and toilet for freshening up after a day of exploring . Cleverly placed cabinets and storage compartments maximize space, ensuring everything has its designated spot
The VW Grand California: Modern, Comfortable, But...
The modern VW Grand California offers significantly more space and comfort, living up to its name.With a length of 6.80 meters and luxurious Ausstattung, it feels like a tiny apartment on wheels . Driver and passenger enjoy a smooth ride on comfy seats while modern tech ensures a quiet and safe driving experience.
...Less Living Comfort and Storage Space
However, all that comfort comes at a cost. The Grand California's living area feels less comfortable and cramped compared to the LT Florida. The beds, while not under the roof, take up valuable space during the day and are trickier to access 🪜. Plus, the kitchen is less spacious .
Reliability: Oldie vs. Modern
The VW LT Florida Westfalia might be getting older, but its robust build and simple technology make it a reliable companion on adventures . The VW Grand California, on the other hand, boasts state-of-the-art tech, which is convenient and useful, but also more prone to potential issues ⚠️.
Conclusion: Nostalgia Meets Modernity ️
The VW LT Florida Westfalia and the VW Grand California are two very different camper vans. The oldie wins hearts with its compact design, clever layout, and cozy feel. The modern Grand California offers more comfort, and driving pleasure .
