Nice looking Autovilla!

How's the demand for vintage VW camper hire?

I've just launched http://www.classiccamperhire.biz a week ago, and thus far good demand for events like Afrika Burn. The Villa has also been booked for a big international travel expo at CT Stadium in early May by a big travel company as their centrepiece, as well as a surfer for 3 weeks later in July. It's difficult to say how viable the rentals will be without first running the business for a year or so. I'm looking at possibly pulling in vehicles from other willing collectors keen to earn money with their campers as well.

Good luck with your business. Cape Town is the right base for classic camper hire, though I must say I cringe when I hear a surfer wants to hire your bus for three weeks. That's three weeks of standing in sea spray and having wet boards and westuits dripping salt water over everything. :(
