🥵 Is it just us, or is it absolutely roasting at the moment?

If your air conditioning isn’t keeping you cool, it might be time for a regas. Over time, air con systems naturally lose refrigerant, which means they don’t blow as cold as they should.

Here at Colebrook Transporters Plymouth, we offer air conditioning gas refills for both cars and vans, helping get your system back to ice-cold performance - perfect for this summer heat.

We’ve spoken about this build before… but it’s time for an update.

This VW Campervan Is Making Up To 950BHP... And We're Only Just Running It In!

The RS T6 has been coming together at Colebrook CSC Transporters, led by Director Rob and built by the team in-house.

What started as a Volkswagen Transporter T6 camper has turned into something completely different. A full RS3-powered, four-wheel-drive performance build that still somehow keeps its campervan identity.

At the heart of it is a fully rebuilt Audi RS3 2.5 TFSI engine, built with JE forged pistons, Bartek H beam rods, ACL bearings, ported head, Schrick camshafts and ARP hardware throughout.

It’s running a Pulsar G35-1050 turbo at over 35 PSI, managed through a Syvecs ECU, with calibration from Four Stroke Performance in Belgium.

Fuel system is next level. It’s running 99 octane pump fuel combined with a multi-injector setup including port injection, Bosch Motorsport direct injection and direct port methanol injection running 100 percent methanol with no water mix.

Airflow and control comes through a modified setup featuring Forge elbow, Forge dump valve and Forge T6 TDI front mount intercooler.

And despite all of that, it is still very much a campervan.

Inside you still have a full off grid setup with Reimo pop top, seating, kitchen, solar and lithium system built for real travel and use.

Underneath, the drivetrain is a one off DQ500 based 4Motion setup combining RS3 and Transporter components, built to handle everything the engine can produce.

Right now it is already estimated at 850 to 950BHP while still being run in.

And we’re not done yet.

This is just where it gets intere

🚛🔧 It feels like Engine Week here at Colebrook Transporters!

At the moment six of the 40 vehicles in the workshop have engines either dismantled or completely removed for repair:

🔹 VW T25 2.0 – in for a camshaft replacement.

🔹 Brazilian Bay 1.4 Water-Cooled – suffering from a blown head gasket.

🔹 VW T5 Camper 1.9 PD – another blown head gasket, but this one has proved more involved. The block face is out of tolerance, so the engine has been removed and fully stripped down to allow both the block and cylinder head to be skimmed.

🔹 Ford Transit Euro 5 – seized injectors turned what should have been a straightforward job into a major repair. The engine had to be removed, and ultimately the cylinder head was taken off so the injectors could be drilled out.

🔹 Ford 1.0 EcoBoost – snapped wet belt resulting in bent valves and extensive engine damage.

🔹A Audi TT 2.0 TFSI which can in with a miss fire which ended being a lack of compression on cylinder 1 is now having a performance engine built including , rebore and over sized forged pistons , forged H beam con rods , ARB bolts through out , Race engine bearing etc ready to make some serious BHP

It’s certainly been one of those weeks where every bay seems to have an engine in pieces! Thankfully, our team thrives on a challenge, and we’re looking forward to getting all of these vehicles back on the road where they belong. 💪🔧

Well what do we have here then… something a little different from the usual newer Transporter builds! 👀

That’s right — this absolutely stunning VW T25 came into us for a full Westfalia-style pop top installation. And what a van it is! This left-hand-drive original German Multivan travelled not from Germany… but over 5 hours north of Plymouth just to come to us for the roof install.

The owner told us he had travelled across Europe several times with his son searching for the perfect van — and once he found it, he travelled across England looking for the right company to supply and fit the roof. We were by no means local… in fact we’re miles away from his hometown! But after several phone calls and a visit to the workshop, he decided the journey would be well worth it.

The van was dropped off, the customer booked himself an Airbnb nearby, and we got to work.

One of the main goals for this build was to retain the original factory headliner while perfectly finishing the reinforcement frame — and we’re proud to say we achieved exactly that.

We absolutely love how this one turned out. What do you think? 🔥🚐
