- In today's video we unveil a Volkswagen T6 Caravelle I bought for my wife! But she doesn't know it's damaged or in fact it's a Caravelle! Oh and I need to fix it in less than a week to take it on our family holiday. Wish me luck!

"its boring buying straight cars, too expensive" - Wise words my man😂
Buying your wife a broken Van one week before you plan on taking it on vacation ? Is there anyone we should call for you, 999 perhaps ? In case of serious bodily injury ??😂🥰 love the channel.
Hope you have good insurance cover just in case she bumps you off!

Great meeting the wife and kids. Well done Dean, great episode.
As Tavarish would say..."that'll buff out" lol. Also what a beautiful family. If there is someone who can have this thing looking and running like new again in 6 days it is you Dean! Let's go!!!
Wow. Your wife is well down to earth and a total legend!! If I had brought that back to my wife she would have gone mental. Awesome motor and I know you will smash it bruv!!! Great project.
😂😂
Answered your own question u need to get rid of your old nagging Moaner and upgrade to one like his so ur sayin ur wife is ungrateful. Basically 😂😂😂😂
Not if they use a pacifier to keep a kid quiet. Pacifiers are for soothing purposes lonely. Pacifiers are only used at night to help the child fall asleep and then you take it out of their mouth
At least 5 matching alloys always a bonus mate 👍🏻Everyday is a school day Dean. As for your wife Dean she’s your biggest supporter Dean so you’ve got yourself an absolute keeper. Well done to you both and your lovely family. Congratulations 🎉
Thank you mate appreciate it 😊
She needs a trim her eyebrows
Absolutely gutted for you regarding that scratch on the side. Apart from that it’s a beautiful bus and I think you will 100% finish it on time for your family trip.
Pressures on!
You've got a keeper there Dean! Im sure I speak on behalf of 90% of the married blokes here that if we brought this back we would be either sleeping in the shed or the sofa for the forseeable future!
You'll get her fixed up in no time 💪🏻 enjoy your time away with the family making memories 👍🏻
The last time I bought my wife a project car…. I gave it away within a few days of collecting it… 😂
@@alltjthe wife or the car 😂
@@TTTTssss__ 🤣🤣🤣had to keep the one with more to offer…. And lasts a lifetime… and didn’t need any cosmetic work done…
simp
Really looking forward to this build. Your wife knows you so well.😂 Beautiful family.
Oh wow I bet your Mrs was well impressed Dean 😂, mine would send me right back to buy another one without damage and a flea in my ear for good measure 😁, seriously though they are great family transport 👌🏻.
The added pressure of the deadline makes this series utterly exciting. I'm afraid you will need to make time for daily videos on this one!
Fantastic little family you have, it’s good to have someone who supports you in what you do and love doing. Hats off to her
A happy wife is a happy life looking forward to the next update cheers.
Absolutely spot on Dean, hope you and the wife enjoy once finished….you made me laugh big time when you said to her…you didn’t think I would buy you a straight one do you…there boring…superb comment 😂😂….glad to see it’s an X on the windscreen direct from the insurance company rather than a private or copart entry….best of luck and take care to you and your family…have a fabulous holiday…kind regards Mark from Billericay 👍😀🇬🇧☀️☀️🚗
Thanks Mark! 🙌🏼
@@SavingSalvage you’re welcome look after yourselves 😃👍☀️☀️
I am an avid watcher of your videos and never comment.. today I am braking the mould I am actually looking forward to this series... as other channels never do vehicles that other drivers strive to want to drive especially if you are disabled or do not have the body manoeuvrability to get into lower vehicles. I cant drive anything lower than a renault scenic 2
Such a thoughtful present for the wife, I am quite shocked how well she took it, I know if I had been as nice to my beloved I would be sharing the sofa with the dog.
Great work and what a goal you have set yourself, I hope you have a plan "B".
There’s no pleasing women, we all learn that the hard way 😂 Great build series, you’ll knock it out in no time!!
The bus is in good hands. looking forward to your wife's reaction when its fixed. great content as expected. seeing you drop a video brightens up my day mate
Really nice to get the rest of the family involved with the video, this is going to be a test of nerves and skill to get it ready in time for holidays
Had a vw camper and a caravelle. The caravelle best van I’ve ever owned. Camped in it, had cement mixers in the back yet can blast down the motorway with 7 onboard all day in comfort. Worth every penny, will never get rid of mine 👍👍
Your wife reminds me of the actress Megan Fox 😮same Beauty 👍.
That T5 Bus looks great 👍.Hope you and your family have a really good time with that Bus 👍👍.From Germany
It's a T6.1
Anyone else suddenly become more invested when the wife came out 😮💨👌🏻
Oh wow Dean, do you know how to put pressure on yourself!!! Great vehicle to use for a family bus, but I'm not to sure your dear wife is that impressed. No worries, I'm sure she will come round to it. Great shame about the scratch but these things happen. Looking forward to this one and I hope it turns out just fine for you. Good luck! Cheers, Bob.
Great to see a bus on the channel, had a t5 from new in 09 and loved it with a young family. Trips to Cornwall and France a doddle. And my wife used it as her daily for 8 years. Good luck with the build and deadline, you never do the easy route.. hats off to you 🤛
Nice choice of Bus Dean, I have had two transporters and loved them both. Hope all the repairs go well and will await the next installment.
This is one I'm really looking forward to seeing done. Fair play mate, hopefully your holiday went well haha. Be cool to catch your wife's reaction when it's complete 👌
Love this project and when I saw it come up I didn’t think I would. Think you’re ever so slightly mad though……..time pressure like that would really stress me 😂………Lovely family you’ve got there Dean and really great to see them featured on camera.
I have a T6.1 Transporter 4motion, 5 seater - once you own one of these you never look back. Best family car - ever! This is a keeper mate.
Brilliant content. Brave undertaking and hope it all goes as planned. Look forward to next episode. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Very nice to see you all not just you on your own. I’m certain she will be surprised 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 with the finish
You fix that in 6 days you will be expecting another child!!
Your a lucky man buddy!
Hi Dean..Spot on on spoiling your wife with her new vehicle..Let me say the look on her face when seeing the damage..What a great project..Good on you..
Nice to be able to put a face to Alysha after the emails. Cracking Caravelle, given the work and shortage of time, I don't expect to see the finished video till after you have been to Cornwall. With that in mind good luck and I hope you get the weather and have a great time on holiday.
Love the Caravelle. Beautiful to drive. Your wife will love it. Loads of ladies drive them in the different formats (campers etc) Don’t worry about the scratch for now, the Cornish narrow roads might give you a couple more and you can fix them all at the same time when you get back 😜 I’m excited to see the finished product. Good luck 🤞
You have a lovely family Dean and this is a project that is all about them so I know you'll do a great job. One of the best cars we ever had when our kids were growing up was a well spec'd Seat Alhambra with 7 seats and although we only had 3 kids, they were able to have their own space which saved lots of squabbles. We had a fantastic camping holiday in Cornwall (Perranporth) back in 2004 which our kids remember and still talk about to this day. Of course that might be due to the fact we got caught in a severe storm on our last day and had to abandon camp at 1am and head home. We were told by security that our tent was the last one still standing and that several caravans were on their sides. That was a stressful evening to say the least! Our two youngest kids thought it was a funny game but our eldest was old enough to realise that mummy and daddy were seconds away from disappearing into the Atlantic Ocean holding on to the frame of the tent! Somehow we disassembled the tent without damage and got everything and everyone into the car to head home to Scotland.
It was still one of our best holidays despite (or perhaps because of) the drama of that last night. :)
Fingers crossed for you completing this project on time, and safely. God Bless you and the family.
Dean, hope you manage to get the work done in time, gutted about the left side getting scratched. I sure you will get it sorted though subject to the parts turning up of course. You can then get away with your lovely family. Love the channel and always look forward to the next video coming out. Good luck 🤞
Hi Dean I have a 2017 version you have quite a high optioned caravelle Full leather is a option adaptive cruise control led are also options as is the two tone paint lovely vehicle look forward to seeing it finished.
The lady puts up with all your madness …..wow deserves some sought of medal 🏅👍👊
Proper jeopardy, Dean! Love it. ❤️ Your Lady is a real sport. Dont forget your coolbox and the beers...
Nice to see the family , love the wife’s reaction “is this your way of telling me you want more children “ 😂😂
Your wife was great lol. Best of luck with the bus, it should be a cracking family wagon once you've worked your magic on it!
All the best with the repair, looking forward how things progress.lovely family.
love your work Dean keep up the good work
It was great to meet your family Dean, this van should make a great holiday tourer when it’s finished😊.
“Oh, bloody heck”. 😂😂. You have a lovely family Dean. You luck with the repair and have a great holiday.
I know that feeling when you scratch your car. You can't help concentrating on it. Of course you seem to forget about the damage already to fix. We tend to do that. Anyway it's a great buy, I'm sure you'll have a beauty when you finish. Good luck from Australia.
It looks an amazing bus, hope you get it sorted for your holidays
Stunning vehicle - we are on our second with 4 kids and the other half loves it. Such a good family bus.
Brave man she took that well, always wanted a good spec bus. Looking forward to the next vid.
Great vehicle for a family. Loving the two tone paint job, I'm sure it will look very smart once it's all complete again. Good luck for the coming days work:)
I think Mrs. Salvage was most restrained. Really looking forward to this (re)build. 🎉
Welcome to the deep pockets club! However, maybe you should've fixed it before the reveal to her.
Feel your pain dinging the side! But if anyone can get it sorted you can! 😅
Great buy, looking forward to this build 👍
Cracking van, cracking wife, double thumbs up 👍👍
Deans mrs is 🔥!
Good luck with the repairs on this one. Can’t wait to see how it comes out.
“ I mean……is that even safe” 😂🤣
So chilled!
As an owner of a VW bus myself (which I’m slowly fixing up) love to see this sort of content added to your channel, it will make a cracking vehicle, next thing to do would be to get it converted into a camper, though wait till the kids are a bit older 😂
Problem is converting this is you’re wasting a very high spec bus, all the air con and everything runs through the ducting and you’d be chopping it all up. Best sticking to converting ex work vans.
Can’t wait to get home at watch this one .. always wanted a caravelle but very expensive!! Best of luck
A black sharpie pen will hide 90% of those scratches until you can tend to it properly after your holiday. Yet another cool project from Saving Salvage.
Nice to meet your children and your lovely Wife, the Bus will be done before the Holiday is starting next week, i am sure that you succeed to fix the damage on this nice looking Bus !!
Hey Dean your wife looked absolutely thrilled with her new car😅 expecting a flash rangerover maybe? I'm sure it will look amazing when finished & it's the perfect vehicle fir you & family touring Cornwall, good luck on the build.
Great video, look forward to seeing how you go with that deadline!
A great buy Dean. I’m a big fan of the channel and admire what you are achieving so far mate. A well spec,d bus and will look great when finished ( hopefully on time ) lol. Good to see something different too 👍
Thanks 👍
Bloody heck 🤣 shock understatement of the year ! Brilliant…… Is it aesthetic? Oh my days ….. great stuff!
Best gift for a wife 😂 👍 Love the channel
Absolutely brilliant idea mate and well done for getting hold of it!
Great project. I think that it will look great when it's done
Mate, You're punching! Your wife is lovely- and clearly tolerant too! 😂
Lookong forward to this project as thinking of getting something similar myself.
Good luck with it!
Thanks 🤣
A nice Family for a nice guy, the bus will be great when its finished.
thankyou Dean,,theres lots to do but you seem to just take it all in your stride,,good to see the family the two junior future mechanics will be a great help before you know it,😂,,have a great week,👌
Big job mate you make it look so easy looking forward to seeing it finished 👌
Nice bus dean . Get it touch with travelinlite for all your transporter parts . There down your way too . Can't wait to see the bus finished 👍
Enjoyed the urgency that the deadline gave the project. Fingers crossed for you!
Best video yet - and longest? Living your best life, Dean, keep it up. More videos with your wife in it - she's clearly the brains of the outfit!
More to come!
Working against the clock. Will show us viewers that you can do anything under pressure. Love the channel
This was a lovely game and I can't believe your wife didn't explode??? The status of the interior caught her off guard but for the sake of your marriage, don't test your wife's patience again in the near future. Be a good boy during and after the vacation😄😄😄
Feel your pain dude. I have 3 kids too, 14 yr old girl and twin boys about the same size as your eldest son in the video. Complete nightmare finding a nice vehicle for a family of 5. I looked at one of those, but in the end bought a Tiguan Allspace (also 7 seats) but not as much room. Those are nice vans though and they drive like a car, so I am sure your wife will love it once she gets used to the size of it. Nice direction for the TH-cam channel too. BTW Enjoy your holiday, you will be passing me, as I live in Somerset.
Lovely to meet the family. We have just done a trip to Cornwall in our new T6.1 kombi from GTE custom vans. Mate you’ll have the best time. Make sure it ends up on 20’s 😉
Great find! You called it a Bus which is the correct thing to say in the VW Scene. These are so easy to work on and hold there money. If you need any help head over to either the T5 or T6 Forums were I’m a moderator on both. Good luck Dean!!
Wow, what a challenge against time! You’re the man for the job 👊 great video as expected. 👍🏻
Top video mate an welcome to your family. Good to see the people who are behind you. Ps I can see another baby coming lol
ive got a t6 and converted it myself to a camper. you will love it!
All about the family, great to see 👍🏼
Loved the video - beautiful bus (when sorted) cheers Sue
Dean I thought your wife took it well, no divorce lol hope you get it done before your holiday, loving the channel 👍
What a van, the colour is really nice, going to be awesome when its done
Looks great I wanted one of these and looked at some in the same colour, great bit of kit
Well loved the way you broke the news to her, especially with the front end missing !!!, It'll be great once you've sorted it, especially the paintwork !!, That front panel looks a bit tricky but think you've gone the right way, race against time mate, well done tho.
This should be a cracking series mate, looking forward to it...!!!
Great vehicle Dean......I have a similar but older 5 cylinder..great to drive....looking forward to this one.nice to meet the fam 😀
Really think this could be the build of the channel so far. Deadline in place and not the easiest repairs to work with….I’m looking forward to this one big time.
You are cutting it fine....good stuff
Nice to see the missis what a beautiful family😊
Nice Caravelle, looks like a classy navy blue and white spec, can't believe you scratched the whole side because you were in a rush/panic!
Nice find, should come together quickly by the looks of it. Bummer about the side scrape, these things happen mate. It will be a great family vehicle for you when it u it s repaired. Lovely family .👍
What a lovely project. Hope you get it fixed in time.
I hope so too
Brilliant episode and a great new spin on an already fantastic channel!
You've got a lovely family there mate. Well done for all of the hard work and effort you put into your videos. You are one of the good guys in life.
Thankyou mate we appreciate that 😊
