Help what are the essential differences -california/atlantic

Post by justicewhittle »

Stupid question i know but what are the essential differences between a westy california and atlantic, it would appear that some people consider atlantic better but they look pretty much the same to me, apart from the roof. Please help!!!!!!! I am not sure which to get.
Many thanks James

Main differences are, electric mirrors, electric windows, double glazed windows, different seat fabric, side body mouldings and a slightly different dash padding, not much else, :wink:

The roof is the same on both the Atlantic and California, you had the option of either high top or elevating

Thanks so much for the information. Was the double glazing only an option in the atlantic, or do some of the california's have it as well?

Double glazing was standard on Atlantic, but all mods were optional on California, check out Steve Walkers site on www.eastfalia.com some good deals on there at the moment, also check

MPI Campers
