VW campervan gets bluetooth radio – hands free & sat nav

VW campervan Betty now has a Bluetooth and DAB enabled hifi system that will talk to your smartphone and let you hook up your Sat Nav. The JVC KD-D897BT is a high end bit of kit that fits nicely into the original dashboard of the campervan.

A microphone situated behind the steering wheel allows you to take calls legally whilst driving along. Sat Nav audio also plays through the speakers which makes for a much safer drive when you are trying to find that beach or campsite for the first time.

What’s more we have been playing our favourite tunes on Spotify through the stereo. Two large speakers in the footwell underneath the 3/4 rock and roll bed and two smaller ones in the front make for a great sound overall. We have a retro playlist that includes the Beach Boys (natch) and other surfing tunes that we use when heading for the beach.

VW campervan Betty has been in use recently at festivals and next weekend she is heading for Latitude in Suffolk. She will be in the general campervan field with a few others. If you are at Latitude and have time come and see us and take a peek at the van.

Betty is perfect for Festivals. The new hifi has an USB socket that can be used to trickle charge your mobile phone and valuables are a lot safer locked away out of sight in the campervan than left in a tent.

What’s more cooking the bacon sandwich in the mornings is easy peasy on the built in two ring gas cooker. Just what you need to set yourselves up for another day’s partying.
