Be very careful when dealing with this company Bought vw bus 30 August 2022 Price included a 1 year mechanical warranty and Respray, it would take a few weeks.. We received the bus Jan 27 of 2023, I then I wanted to send bus to have internals done, at which point Ettiene already said bus won't idle, apparently this was due to standing without petrol and would sort it self out. I trusted him at his word but he said he'd come have a look it it persisted so I let the other suplier install the interior, the installer also took a few months and when I tried to move it to the workshop the car could barely drive and Was missfireing badly. We did mention to him and he would sort it out.. He didn't... Also bought brand new rubbers(car leaks water everywhere) he was gonna come check never did) Apparly the rubbers(which I sent him list of) werent correct so he didnt replace them you would assume he the returned the rubbers I bought but no those are gone. The brand new paint job included in sale already started to bubble up after standing indoors for 6 months. Long story short, now won't fix anything he says that's the how these engines sound. Got my dad to come along asked us what we know about cars as he has over 20 years exp and was in some military unit(in a super aggressive and condescending manner) . Turns out my dad has more experience, is a qualified mechanic and was in the airforce lol. He even insisted we pay for the compresion test we asked for that he says he did but we specifically asked to be present, guess we'll take his word for it. But he'd refuse to pay to redo engine if I take it to another expert and they say engine is shot.. In closing Car barely drives on the 3 pistons Leaks water almost everywhere through all the incorrect window rubbers Paint job bubbling after few months Only gave me a second hand gear nob a year later Aircleaner had a big crack through it, which he wanted to fix with tape at which point it dawned on me to not let him "fix" anything and just take it home We've been mocked and manipulated even tried to say he thought me and my wife were nice and now we being so messed up, he'd never risk his reputation I truly hope they will do better.
