With all the bad new about diesels over the past year I thought it was stupid to go out and buy a Cali that could possibly have a very short shelf life, it looks like many towns will soon be banning diesels over the next few years and I think these bans and surcharges are only going to expand to other areas meaning I would be limited to where I could go in my Cali. I also plan to keep mine long term and who knows what the situation will be like in 2026?
So I did LOADS of research and ordered a California Coast petrol from the Netherlands, I not only have the benefit of a petrol Cali but I have also saved around £10,000 ( taking int account any charges) also the best thing about the Coast is it has a manual roof - why would anyone want the electric roof /so much to go wrong?? Oh yes, I have just had a build date of week 4 which I am really happy about as I did not expect to see it until spring.
Whilst doing my research I also realised how much the UK is ripped off as the Cali in Europe is generally around 15% cheaper than the UK as standard.
Obviously the only negative is it being LHD, however we spend 90% of our holidays on the continent anyway and the T4 California lads have never even had the option of RHD.
