Wolfsburg - Autostadt - ZeitHaus. For over seven decades, the legendary VW bus has transported people and goods all over the world. To mark its 75th anniversary, there is a special exhibition "75 Years of VW Bus" at Zeithaus featuring special VW Bus models - from the T1 to the all-electric ID. Buzz. A VW Bus, or at best a camper van, makes many vintage car enthusiasts' hearts beat faster. It is cherished and cared for. It is loved! Who doesn't fondly remember a study trip in a VW Bus? From the 1960s to the Golf generation, there are probably some who are nodding now. ... (The following photos are from our photo archive and from classic car gatherings of recent years ...) ... the fine and rare VW Bulli exhibits at the Autostadt are a must for classic car and VW Bulli fans!

We went to France, Italy, or simply to the nearest lake.


Usually, someone had a guitar with them and strummed songs by Stevens and the like around the campfire. Vintage car fans carry this memory, or a completely different one, with them, because a VW bus evokes emotion. Now the family bus – affectionately known as the Bulli – is celebrating its 75th birthday!
