Camper vans come in all shapes, sizes and colours - with no better example than ‘Aaron’ the Volkswagen T6 Camper Van featured in the latest episode of Auto Trader’s Show On The Road podcast starring TikTok personalities Caitlin and Leah. Driven by Alex Legouix in the episode, Aaron’s striking yellow and black colour scheme harks back to his former life as an AA breakdown response vehicle.
Auto Trader knew that social media stars like Caitlin and Leah needed a vehicle as impactful as them to co-star in their Show On The Road episode, and when we saw Aaron available to hire on the London Campers website... we knew we’d found the perfect match for the couple. You can watch the full Caitlin and Leah episode of Show On The Road on the podcast’s own YouTube channel today.

What Is Aaron?
Aaron is one of the newest additions to London Campers’ Volkswagen T6 Camper Van fleet, named ‘Aaron’ with the double ‘a’ as a nod to his heritage as a former AA breakdown vehicle - hence the yellow and black colour scheme he sports inside and out. He’s been upgraded with all-terrain wheels and a new body kit, and all the camper mod-cons you’d expect (and some you wouldn’t) inside.

What Features Does Aaron Offer?
Aaron is powered by a 150PS diesel engine with the excellent DSG gearbox directing all that power where it’s needed. He seats five adults inside (3 in the front - as you’ll see in the episode - and two in the back) and can sleep up to four people in either his upstairs or downstairs beds. As a clever bonus, a child can also sleep in the cabin thanks to a bunk bed accessory that can be hired with the vehicle.
The other features include an onboard fridge, cooker, night heater, solar panel on the roof, Bentley leather seats (including the rotating passenger seat), plenty of USB charge points, LED lights, a cold-water sink, full kitchen units, a powerful leisure battery, all-round curtains, storage and a solid interior table. You’ll find more information on his spec on the London Campers website.

Is The Volkswagen T6 Camper Van Good?
Yes, the Volkswagen T6 Camper Van is a very good camper van. The T6 is the latest widely-available version of the historic vehicles Volkswagen has been manufacturing since the late 1940s. You can find out more about the Volkswagen Camper Van history here. While the next generations are confirmed to be built on the company’s Multivan platform, they have yet to make their debut.

Where Can I Find Camper Vans Like Aaron?
If you want to hire Aaron himself, you’ll need to head to the London Campers website, but you’ll find plenty of T6 camper vans (and other models) available on the Auto Trader marketplace.
