VW record player in your pocket
Who says you have to pay through the nose for a decent
turntable? The VW camper van (nothing to do with the official VW) is a toy and a
record player in one.
It’s also one of the weirdest gadgets to grace this blog and we take no responsibility whatsoever if this thing scratches the hell
out of your precious first print of Are you Experienced? Powered by a 9 Volt
battery and housing an in-built speaker, the VW camper van plays your favourite vinyl by driving around it. Apart from raising the bar for novelty gadgets
to a new high, the makers insist that it's an invaluable testing tool when buying second hand records.
We think as silly party gadgets that don’t involve alcohol go, this one will be
hard to beat. It may be no £2,000 Wilson Benesch Full Circle but at £69 this is one
toy car you will want to keep out of little Timmy’s reach.

Does anybody know how to get hold of a VW Camper record player?
I cannot find one for sale and really would like to get one as an Xmas present for my husband.
Any information would be much appreciated.
