CLUB EVENTS UPDATE
Type 2 Detectives Maintenance Day
Unit 3, Berkley Yard, Ness Road, Burwell, Cambridgeshire CB25 0AA Saturday 28th March 2026

After discussions with the great team at Type 2 Detectives (T2D), I can announce I have organised a dedicated Maintenance Bootcamp especially for VWT2OC members.
The event will take place on Saturday 28th March so you will be all fresh and full of knowledge for the new season ahead. I have spoken to some ex-attendees, and they have all said it was an excellent day and very informative.
The maintenance day is aimed at members with air-cooled engines (T1/T2 and early T25’s – you know who you are) and requires a minimum of 10 people and a maximum of 15.
Subject to interest, another event can be provided later in the year as well.
Knowledge gained will include guidance on how to trace and repair basic electrical problems, how to service your air-cooled
engine, common breakdowns and how to avoid them as well as numerous other tips and advice. See their website for more details https://www.type2detectives.com
I have negotiated a special VWT2OC price of £170.00 per person for the day including lunch and refreshments. The cost is normally £195. Prior knowledge is not required, and you do not need to take your vehicle with you. To book this exclusive event, go to https://vwt2oc.co.uk/t2d
T2D are located in the small village of Burwell near Cambridge (CB25 OAA if you wish to look up the location). I am investigating local campsites should any attendees wish to stay for the weekend.
If you have any questions, just email me.
If you are interested in joining me at the bootcamp please book up as soon as possible. Spaces will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
