Street Patina : VW bus in France
THE STORY OF A PASSION
Bitten by a BUG in 1993 in Denver in the USA, Seb contracts VWirus.
The disease will not declare itself at the most serious stage until 20 years later, at the dawn of his 40th birthday. Treatment: immediate purchase of a 1968 Big-Bumper beetle on the ground.
Nat for his part catches the travel bug after a road trip in New Zealand and dreams of a life on the road.
When these two meet, their passion naturally converges on the VW combi. And there everything is linked, some nice encounters with local “infected”, more and more meetings and it is the purchase of the first combi (with the arrival of the couple’s 1st child), then the second, then the third…
To invest is to train: Séb has had his diploma in Marketing Techniques for many years. But you might as well expand your fields of expertise and pass the automotive mechanic diploma in 2021.

In 1995 Fabien was leafing through a copy of super VW magazine at his friend’s house. The latter had just been offered his first beetle. Fabien discovers the splity bus, points to it in the magazine and exclaims: “that’s what I need to go camping! “. His friend immediately replies: “Nonsense, it’s a pointless van…”
What does it matter in 1998 Fabien acquires his splity bus and restores it. For 23 years of happiness on board, the VW virus has not left her 🙂
In 2012 he created the Flat4bug.fr brand on the French Riviera, in 2020 he joined Street Patina for new adventures in vw aircooled.
Investing is training: Fabien has had his degree in Industrial Engineering for many years. But you might as well broaden his fields of competence and he passes the automotive mechanic diploma in 2021.
