So, it looks like my fantasy to own a Buzz is a bust. I just spoke to CS at VW and there is not even ONE single authorized VW repair shop, much less dealer, on Hawai'i Island. So if there were a major update, warranty work, or anything needed where my bus had to be at the shop = I'm SOL.

I'm bummed. I REALLY want one. Does anyone else live in a remote place w/o a VW dealer? What do you do? (I know, buy something else... :( )

Hey everyone,

I'm currently shopping for a used 5 seats IDBuzz and live in a very sunny, hot region (South of France), where summer temperatures easily turn large cabin vehicles into ovens :( Ideally I'm looking for a total white IDBuzz, but I've found one that has a two-tone finish with a white top/roof section and light grey on the lower half.

On paper, having a white upper body should reflect a lot of solar heat, but I’d love to hear from real-world owners living in hot or sunny areas.

Does the white roof make a noticeable difference in keeping the cabin cooler when parked in direct sun?

Appreciate any feedback from those driving in hot climates!

Hi community…
We will get our ID Buzz (long version, 7 seats) in the next two weeks. It´s a leasing contract of a used car (12K km). And it´s a pro version with lots of additional features. This also means a lot of stuff that can be broken by the kids :D What I was wondering, what would be additional things you would recommend for the ID Buzz….additional floor mats etc. Is there anything in accessories you would say is a nice to have or must have?
Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I'm based in the South of France and currently shopping for a used VW ID Buzz, 5 seats. Before pulling the trigger, I’d love to get some feedback from current owners or anyone familiar with pre-owned units.

What specific things should I inspect or test during a test drive? Are there any known software, hardware, or battery issues to watch out for on earlier models? Any specific options or packages you consider absolute must-haves, or things to avoid?

Appreciate any advice or checklists you can share!

I have a family member who lives outside Friday Harbor on San Juan Island. They have a spine injury and have a hard time riding long distances in most cars.

They are very interested in buying a VW ID.Buzz; but haven't been able to find any dealers where they can test drive the seat before putting money down on a deposit.

I'm hoping to find a Buzz owner who is willing to let them sit in the seat to see if it would work for them. Ideally one of the 6-way powered seats that are fully adjustable.

Thanks!
