Ways to Finance A VW Transporter

- Contract hire – You cannot customise a contract hire van in any way so this is more for basic white vans.
- Finance Lease – By far the most popular method of finance. Place a deposit up to say 40% of the van price and have a large final payment thats often named a balloon. Look at VW Transporter Lease Deals
Or Just simple Van Sales and outright purchase. We have some of our best van lease deals here - Van Lease/Van Finance – The most popular method is finance lease. You can lease these vans with a low deposit (as little as £500+vat). The aren’t much more than a VW Caddy Van
VW Transporter Kombi Custom Vans
Even if you haven’t bought a T6/T6.1 from Swiss we are more than happy to customise your VW Transporter in Bridgend. We have ample workshop space, ample parking, so maybe combine it with a trip to Cardiff Wales Capital while we work. Try us for carpeting, splitters, spoilers, leather, suspensions. As we don’t do camper conversions we generally have short lead times. The tax benefits may be greater for something like a VW Amarok Lease.

VW Transporter FAQ
What is the difference between the T6 and the T6.1 model?
The T6 model represents the latest facelift given to the iconic VW Transporter, with the T6.1 building on the success. The T6.1 model has a few added features, such as a larger unified grill at the front, new sleek looking LED headlights and redesigned taillights. The T6.1 model also features driving assist features and a more substantial infotainment system in the cabin.
What is a DSG gearbox?
The Direct Shift Gearbox, or DSG, is an innovative new technology developed by VW that combines the ease of automatic transmission with the convenience of manual control. The Gearbox is composed of a dual clutch system that anticipates your next switch and pre-emptively readies the gears to make the switch smooth and fast, taking less the four-hundredths of a second to make the switch.
What is the difference between the T26, T28, T30 and T32 VW Transporter?
The primary difference between the versions is their load carrying capacity. The naming convention mentions the nominal weight that is supported by the vehicle in tons. For example, the T26 variant has a gross vehicle weight of 2.6 tons and so forth. The larger the weight variant, the larger the carrying capacity of the vehicle generally. The vehicles can be equipped with varying engine capacities.
We offer the T28, T30, and T32 variants in the Panel van model, and the T30 and T32 variants in the Kombi model, and there are different VAT rules that apply to each variant.
What seat configurations are available?
The Panel Van offers a standard option of three seats at the front, with the ability to select two as an option.
The Kombi Van offers five seats as the standard version, with the ability to choose 6 as an option.
If more than 6 passenger seats are required, you may opt for the Shuttle or Caravelle models.
What options are available for the Engine?
We offer two engine capacitates: 150bhp, and 199bhp.
The 150bhp variant can be upgraded with DSG and manual 4Motion four-wheel drive.
The 199bhp variant comes pre-packaged with DSG, while the DSG 4Motion four-wheel drive feature remains optional.
