Each to their own but I'm hoping to tour Ireland with my grown up children and show them cork etc.. Where their nan was born. This would be perfect. I'd definitely buy the tent and as you say, perfect apart from no shower and toilet 🚿🚽 but nothing two buckets, one with lid can't manage 😉

Great video, but I just don’t “get it” where the Caddy is concerned. You’ve seats for 5 people, as long as they don’t bring any luggage. The bed is realistically big enough for one adult, but you need a second one to put it up. There’s no inbuilt storage for the golf umbrella that you’ll need in order to make a morning coffee when it’s lashing it down outside, which you’ll then drink while sitting in the passenger seat because the back bench is full of all the stuff that won’t fit in the boot. Unless you haven’t put the bed away yet, in which case both front seats are as useless as the rear, and you may as well stand there in the rain with your brolly and your brew, wondering how much worse off you’d really be with a proper estate car, a tent, and some folding beach furniture.

@@NobbyOnCars Enjoyed the video, my friend. And despite my tinge of bitterness over the name, I have to say it looks like a great vehicle. Not a chance in hell that VW will bring it to the US, of course. Too small for those few families who opt for vans over here. And despite its suitability for camping and "over-roading" we Americans prefer VWs that are larger and cheaper than our European counterparts. Still, for the "retired hippie" demographic it would be a great replacement for their aging Vanagens.

@@sarahann530 The Monte Carlo isn't available in the US either, Sparky. In any event, when the Monte Carlo did exist I doubt that anyone in that tiny principality felt that the Chevy somehow represented the lifestyle of a Mediterranean resort. The California, on the other hand, is obviously meant to evoke a sort of "Beach Blanket Bingo" vibe and would likely be a popular choice in California.

I don't understand why you'd buy this and a tent to go with it. You can just use your regular car and get a big tent. The Caddy California doesn't really add much to the experience except a single gas burner.
