The Wolfsburg Bus Crew (WBC) is a club on Facebook for owners of Volkswagen split screen, bay window and T25 buses, and is run by Rich Coxhill. 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 in 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 Autumn meet was arranged for Saturday 18th October, with a convoy to the woods from the meeting place at the Tesco Superstore in Aylesbury.

| My bus parked up in the Tesco car park with fellow WBC members. |
| Luckily the car park is quite big, which was just as well as there must have been 25-30 busses all parked up. |
| The convoy to the woods, via Wendover high street has started. |
| Once in Wendover we drove up the high street and at the roundabout at the end we circled back on ourselves creating two way traffic of air cooled busses. |
| The locals always seem to like our cruise through their village as they waved and took photos. |
| Once parked up at the woods, I take Suzie for a long walk. We're just getting back to join the crew with Suzie leading the way. |
| Time for a cuppa. |
| Suzie doesn't look impressed that we're sat in the bus, when she could be outside. |
| Grumpy look.. |
| Giving me 'the stare'. |
| OK, I'll open the sliding door so you can look out, she's much happier now. |
| All crew members that attend choose their favourite bus and the bus with the most votes wins a 'Stinky Pete's' hand painted saw along with some WBC merch. |
| Let's see some busses, starting with Rich Coxhill's late bay. |
| My bus. |
| Andy's slammed early bay with his cool box hand painted by 'Stinky Pete'. |
So that was the first of two instalments about the Wolfsburg Bus Crew's Autumn meet 2025. Next week will be part two where you can see plenty more air-cooled busses so be sure to come back next week.
