The Wolfsburg Bus Crew is a club on Facebook for owners of Volkswagen split screen, bay window and T25 buses. Even though the club is based in London, they have members all across the U.K. as well as all over the world. It doesn't matter if your bus isn't a show winner, you'll be welcomed whatever your bus looks like. The club organise club meets, club stands at various shows throughout the year, arrange various runs and camping trips and they have also negotiated numerous discounts from various VW parts suppliers. The club have two club meets a year, one in the spring and one in the autumn both held at Wendover Woods, near Aylesbury, Bucks, and both with a camp out at a camp site next to the woods. This year the Spring meet was arranged for Saturday 5th April, with a convoy to the woods from the meeting place at the Tesco superstore in Aylesbury. The weather forecast was for sunshine all day, as it has been for the last week or so, so it promises to be a good turn out of buses. The blog review continues as I wander around the car park looking at all the WBC members buses.

This was one of my favourite buses at the meet. The overall look was just perfect. |
I'm not sure if I have a tyre fetish or not, but knobbly off road tyres on a bay really does it for me!. |
WBC busses as far as the eye can see. |

It's always nice to see original features on a bus. |
The winner of the Best Bus award as voted for by other members was Dan's '79 panel van. |
