If I remember right, this topic came up a month or 2 ago? And people were saying there is a lack of bay buses. I do have a bay orange camper with a Devon top. It is made by Matchbox of England circa 1970. Being from England, it is RHD and the sliding door in on the left.

But, I just found this one on ebarf:

It is a USA Sage Green pop top! It is a Brekina from Germany by way of England, so it is pricey with postage.....

Amen! $30 for a bay toy is past my limit, even for Brekina. I do have the orange Matchbox bay with the Devon top and I have a blue one too - with an orange Devon top! Looks like they only made one color of top. Wink But bay toys are few and far between, if you want it, you get to pay for it.

That is really sweet. If only I could find a beige one to match my camper. Anyone has one they are willing to part with, I'm buying.

I found 4 more bay buses, but no more Westies. These are cheaper and they are in the USA:

This one is a late bay single cab:

I have a bay window.. Orange made in England, no idea which one you guys are talking about probably the same thing, mine is missing the camper top it says "dormobile" on the bottom.

Any pictures of yours would be appreciated, send them to

Thanks for that site, Dave. I actually ordered myself a little Westfalia. Its red, wish it was white to match my bus, but that would be asking alot. AND, before you ask, I was trying very hard to order you a little bus too, but there were just sooo many, and you never said which one. Wink

My dad and step mom bought my son one just like the 3rd one from the left in the picture of Easter. I think they did it to tease me. Laughing
