Doris was dressed in navy blue ribbons and there was a selection of chilled beers for the groomsmen to enjoy during their journey. After dropping the gents off, Doris waited until after the ceremony for group photographs.

Wishing you both all the very best, from Chase the Sun…

Originally imported from Italy, she has sat in a garage for over 25 years protected from the elements but a little unloved.  That is until she was spotted, bought and brought to Chase the Sun HQ for a new lease of life. 

She needs a full, sympathetic restoration and it’s a big job but so worth it.  She will be finished in pastel white and a pale egg shell blue with matching interior.  Her hood is a bale biscuit colour.

She’s currently being stripped back to bare metal before being given a full mechanical overhall and we hope to have her on the road for Spring 2018.

We are taking bookings for Bettina now, so don’t delay as dates are going fast.  Here is a photograph of how she will look upon completion, with a couple of hints of blue too.

Dusty is ready available for film and TV work and she was called upon last year by a casting company who regularly use Chase the Sun.  Dusty was collected by the hire company and taken off to filming where she rubbed shoulders with stars like Walliams and Sheridan Smith.

Please feel free to contact us if you’re looking for a classic VW camper van for film, TV or promotional work as we have just the campervan you’re looking for!

Skippy (and soon to be Dusty) can be hired for the week, taking in your wedding transport and honeymoon too.  This gives you lots more time to enjoy our camper vans and is also a very cost efficient way of planning your wedding.  You can collect your VW camper van and decorate or dress it yourself, have a friend or family member to drive you on your big day and head off together for your honeymoon the following day.  Pack your bags (and the champagne!), and take on a Road Trip that will give you memories lasting a lifetime.

We can supply ribbons, bunting and signage if required, or even provide a fully dressed camper van. Please ask about our various packages.

She is a German built camper van, sent to Los Angeles USA shortly after her build in 1967.

She still is in her original paint and has her original interior. Being a wedding vehicle she will be fully restored but we aim to keep as much of her VW originality and charm as possible.

Her respray will be in pearl white and she will have pale grey upholstery, setting off a wedding dress beautifully.  We are also treating her to a full length sunroof – perfect for wedding photographs!

She will seat 5 passengers in total too, so we can cater for a bride travelling with her bridesmaids.

Doris will make her grand entrance in March 2016, however bookings for her are already being taken. So, if you’re looking for VW splitscreen wedding hire in Preston, Lancaster, the Lake District or anywhere else in the North West of England, contact us soon to secure your date.
