Einmal erst benutzt und zwar bei strömendem Regen. Absolut dicht und ein sehr gutes Klima. Die Verarbeitung und die Konstruktion der Teile ist eher einfach aber sehr Robust.
Das einzige was mir nicht gefällt ist die Kederschiene welche das top cover auf einer Seite hält. Sie ist im aufgeklappten zustand im weg und man muss sie aufwendig herausziehen. Hier wäre eine Aufrollmöglichkeit oder Befestigung am Zeltboden wünschenswert. vielleicht drei oder 4 Ösen mit gurten. Das werde ich mir selbst nachrüsten.
VW Bus
The VW Bus has been a symbol of adventure, freedom and flexibility for decades. Whether as a classic T1, robust T3 or modern T6.1 – the Bulli has delighted generations.
VW Bus roof tent
The VW Bus embodies the dream of freedom and adventure like almost no other vehicle. With a high-quality roof tent, you can elevate your camper to a new level of van life – without any complicated bodywork or the installation of a pop-top roof. Gordigear helps you equip your bus with the right gear for unforgettable travel experiences.
Gentle and cost-effective upgrade
Unlike installing a pop-up roof, which requires significant modifications to the vehicle's body, a roof tent can be mounted with minimal structural damage. At only about one-fifth the cost of a pop-up roof, this solution offers not only maximum flexibility but also considerable savings. The characteristic silhouette of your VW Bus remains completely intact.
Important information regarding roof load
The dynamic roof load plays a crucial role in the safe installation of a roof tent. It determines the maximum permissible load while driving and is significantly lower than the static roof load when stationary. When planning, be sure to consult the manufacturer's specifications for your VW Bus model and factor in the additional weight of the roof rack.
Please note : You can find these maximum permissible roof loads in your vehicle documents!
Ideal roof tent for the VW Bus or Bulli
The classic silhouette of the VW Bus opens up a wealth of possibilities for your personal camping setup. Your vehicle becomes especially flexible with two opposing pop-up roof tents – opening at the front and rear. This configuration transforms your bus into a spacious family accommodation, allowing you to easily move between the tented areas via the roof. Despite the expanded living space, your setup remains compact enough for smaller campsites.
This family solution is suitable for:
- The Tanami Base folding roof tent
- The Tanami Plus folding roof tent (mounted lengthwise up to 165 cm)
- The Tanami Pro folding roof tent (mounted lengthwise up to 165 cm)
All the models mentioned can also be mounted with a side entrance up to 220 cm. For the ultimate vanlife experience, we recommend our hard-shell roof tents:
Additionally, a flexible car awning offers extra living space outdoors. A practical awning provides further weather-protected space.
