Ewan Mcgregor's restored VW Van with the plaid curtains is too adorable. When I was a kid we went on six road trips back and forth across the U.S. and Canada (from New Hampshire to Washington). I'd love to go on a long road trip again, maybe by myself or with a couple of friends. A cute VW van would be required. Are any of you planning a roadtrip for the coming summer?
Photo from this blog (don't ask me how I found that!)
Road tripping to our new home in Park City UT this June! But not in a VW, hopefully someday in an Airstream though. Here is a fun shot from Mother’s Day weekend. A friends VW, and some little camping girls!

ha, just recently was a the VW dealer and saw an old one like this, but it was blue and white! wait let me search for the pics!
Please may I come too?
ha how did you find celebs and cars… i love those little curtains so sweet.
Bela loves this cars, one day I would love to have one.
This one is so cute!
Maybe Ewan will take his family around the world in it like Long Way Round or Long Way Down.
I wish! I went off round Europe with my love in our VW van 2 summers ago, for nearly 3 months – it’s a retro red 1988! His name (the van) is Sunny. If it was possible, we would do it again in a shot! Little jaunts round Scotland is the best we can hope for this summer. 🙂
Heather that sounds lovely! Lucky that you are moving to Park City. If I was going to live in Utah that would be the place. Your photos are gorgeous!!
Vicky: That sounds like a dream!!
Jenny: Yes of course.
My sister just bought a 1971 orange VW van – complete with the plaid curtains! I’m really hoping she takes it camping this summer.
this is pretty awesome! I love road trips.
Oh man, I want a VW van SO bad! And a teardrop trailer. The two together would make for a fabulous road trip, I think.
that’s so funny-my husband just got something fixed on his VW van and Ewan’s VW was there at the same time. {this was just last week in LA}
He checked out Ewan’s van and said it was awesome.
We haven’t camped in ours yet, but i was just thinking about planning out first one with the van.
AMy: No way! That is so funny! How cool. Can’t imagine what it’s like to live in LA and bump into celebrities:)
My boyfriend was eyeing one last night. He was trying to get me to buy it! I said first we have to fix the hole in the house. Someday!
I love VW vans. They’re my fav. They scream cool.
This makes me love Ewan even more ;o)
No road trips planned yet but I love VW vans! My husband had one when we met. He was in a band and carted all his equipment to shows in it. Whenever I see one I feel all nostalgic. Now that we have a family, I would love to have one for road trips. So fun!
oh, love that. my family used to crisscross the country every summer in one (oregon to michigan). a great way to see the country!
One more reason he’s the coolest!
