Motorhomes have always been, and still are, compromises on wheels. The two core aspects, the "camper" and the "motorhome", are naturally difficult to combine. Of course, this also applies to this Westfalia camper, which is based on a VW T1 bus. There is not much space to live in, but at least that little bit is always on board. The VW technology does its job reliably, but you can hardly reach high speeds. The pros and cons of the "Dormobil" are particularly closely linked. This article reproduces an original driving report from 1962 and shows the motorhome in historical photos.
