BBT distributor on Ile de Reunion Mickael bought this bus from BBT HQ about 5 years ago.
Ever since they cover 25.000km yearly, what’s amazing on such a limited size island lost in the huge Indian Ocean.
But lately the bus became also a real movie star when Mickael was contacted to rent his bus to capture Gerard Jugno latest movie “Petit Piaf” to be released end of 2021…
Oh yes the whole family of Mickael are very strictly AirCooled and they named this bus “Bobby”, or what’s in a name Bob? ..:)

In Europe it seems that the second Covid wave (in Antwerp we’re actually at the third) gets all the news… even Trump is moved over to page 20 or 21 of most newspapers.
Besides the Covid thing there are lots of other very important things happening, which can be very important for our economy in the near future.
Several cases are happening and take the profit of the Covid headline news, so they don’t catch no or as little as possible capture….
@ BBT we bring you week after week the new products, that’s why our team is made for, to inform you, our reader about what’s new in BBT VW wonderland.
Enjoy….
Actually we should present this with slightly more noise as it’s not every day we can present you something that makes your VW really better….
We now have the 37mm and 39mm in original Solex PICT 3 look-a-like carburetor.
Bolt on right away to your standard 1600cc engine and tests we performed were absolutely gorgeous…
We tested on a Beetle, Beetle convertible and Bus, all three with only positive results.
A way better acceleration but especially it was the torque that surprised us!
For sure it’s also a perfect solution for your mildly tuned engine.
And the best part of it, they’re dirty cheap.
Just try one, let us surprise you…

Westfalia lovers here’s one of your most favorite Westfalia parts. The long inner opening handle for your sliding door.
The normal handle is since a longer time available under BBT # 0524-560.
Westfalia made those long handles to operate easily the door from the inside. Especially around the kitchen block it is little tricky…:)
Of course this is just a real cool accessory for any bus!
