VW TRANSPORTER T6 VS T6.1 // THE ULTIMATE COMPARISON 

Hi . I'm looking at swamper wheels for my van. What makes tyres are you using. I'm reading conflicting opinions. Thanks

Moderator on the t5 forum? Are you serious? 😂😂😂

@@taffpower9347 You looking at the right forum? The T4/T5 forum. Not the Facebook one as I’m not on Facebook. I’ve been a moderator for years along with Festa with Pothole as Admin.

There is no climate crisis so no need to worry about the environment! ☺️

They did. Called the dead pedal

@@ste2529 ahh, I missed that. I’d still put up with it tho

Crazy that they did that!

Cost cutting. It’s a left hand drive vehicle and there’s more from in passenger side

I did 200k+ mile in my t5.1, I’ve now been in my t6.1 for about 3k miles. I do NOT miss the foot rest at all. I did however have the same thought as everyone else “oh, they got rid of the foot rest” when I picked it up then never ever thought about it again. The t6.1 is a much much more comfortable drive, especially for long distances.

I have a t6.1 204 dsg highline and it pulls like a train. If and when they crack the ecu I will get mine remapped up to 270 bhp .its be a proper flying machine at that point 👍

Hi Daniel, they do a 110 bhp 5 speed, a 150 bhp 6speed or dsg then the flagship 204 dsg twin turbo. You can have 2wd or 4wd .I have a 204 dsg 2wd van haven supplied van and it's a flying machine as vans go .just at home on the daily commute as they are on the German autobahn. As big vans go they can certainly pick up speed and will most definitely upstage and have cars unaware at the traffic light grand prix 🤟

Unfortunately it's because the floor had to be raised to accommodate the new exhaust system, I have a t6.1 204 dsg and agree it was great on the t6 ,but to be honest I can get just as comfortable with my foot beside the brake pedal. Last week I drove 13.5 hours in my van haven built swamper London to john o'groats and I got out feeling just as comfortable as I did when I got in it at 3am that morning. Perfect long distance cruiser

B....but......but the government says we are and that if we hand over more tax or stop driving ICE then climate change will stop.

😅😅😅

The T6.1 launched in 2019

Hi Paul I had a m sport transit crew cab and they did drive brilliantly, my only issue was it was always breaking down .my power steering failed causing me to very nearly crash .the hill start assist came on at 84 mph for no reason on the autobahn and lastly my turbo actuator failed leaving me stranded in Germany. And as so many of the parts are on back order my van had to stay in Germany for 8 weeks while a new part was sourced. Unfortunately that didn't happen then my van was returned to the UK where fords has it for a few more weeks . I'm doing slaging of the fords as I'm a proper old ford skool lover ,I even sold my 1988 ford sierra cosworth estate F20YBT to part fund my van . I have had over 60 cars in my time and only 5 of those have been none fords .I sold my transit and bought a revena blue t6.1 204 dsg highline lwb kombi camper swomper from van haven and its been a dream to own .touch wood the only thing that's gone wrong was a failed ADD BLUE PUMP. But vw had it replaced with 48 hours and or me reporting it and they only needed the van overnight so I was super impressed with that . I'm 12,500 miles in to my 10 months of ownership fingers crossed the next 12,500 miles are just as painless.
