Volkswagen T1 Samba Taxi

The Volkswagen T1 Samba, known as the VW van or microbus, is a classic that has captured the hearts of many. This iconic van was first introduced in the 1950s and quickly became a symbol of the hippie movement in the 1960s.

The T1 Samba is known for its unique design. A split windshield, a V-shaped front end and a striking two-tone paint with a bold, contrasting stripe. The interior of this wonderful specimen is spacious and unique to its run-through. Back in the days it was a popular choice for families, surfers and yes the hippies. Fortunately, it offers plenty of pass-through with its 21 pane windows for steaming pret cigarettes. Today a fine specimen for any adventurer and enthusiast.

One of the most famous features of the T1 Samba is the panoramic sunroof, which runs the entire length of the vehicle and offers a great view of the sky. This feature was only available on the Samba model and made it a favorite among tourists and onlookers.

Over the years, the T1 Samba has become a collector's item, cementing its status as a cultural icon. Honestly, this T1 still brings everyone a smile from ear to ear.

Our specimen has a nice past. Born in Germany and brought many fellow passengers around there with a smile as a Taxi. With its continuous benches as a unique feature very suitable. A tip to all the shitty Taxis who go for extra mileage, get in a T1 and customers will ask for an extra round themselves! The Volkswagen T1 Samba is one that is sure to capture your imagination.
