yes

so its a bat with a plit on the front then . it defo looks like a bay inside to me


its a bay down the side too .

Well from the mirror shots it appears to be a bay window ( high level air intakes), but with a split front end with safaris, windscreen wipers mounted above the safari windows and a bay dash.
Whether its a factory cross over, something from Mexico or a back street 'chop shop' special I dont know.

Is the prize a borrow of your anorak?

Correctamundo mate..
Its a bay split

I noticed the safari windows,then the wrong dash,then in the mirrors it was a bay..

Yeah its a bay with a fibre glass split front..
company in wales called bay split bays made them and they looked fuckin stupid.
They just fibreglassed the front straight over the top of the bay..
It stuck out loads and looked hideous.

Im afraid toast guessed it before you mate

How did you guess

Theres a completed listing on ebay of a fine example of a bay split samba
an absolute delight in sealing wax red and chestnut brown
item no 150360434251

thats the badger neil
But that one is either a very rare brazillian bay that vw actually put split side and roof windows into or someones done alot of work to get them in.

How about a split > bay for yours then Dickie, just emagine that
panaramic view and no leaky windows.
