1989 Ford Transit Cosworth V6 Camper Conversion

Pre-bids

Highlights

  • Well-appointed camper conversion

  • MOT valid until April 2027
  • Includes cooking stove, fridge, bedroom area and other appliances
  • Plenty of switches and sockets in good working order

The Appeal

The Ford Transit is one of Britain's most iconic commercial vehicles, and a versatile machine indeed. Perfectly appointed for everything from day-to-day commercial usage as readily as it is for conversion and modification, it's the sort of van where that straightforward, no-frills nature is king. They make roomy, comfortable campers and, with a Cosworth V6 in the nose, can prove a particularly spirited, capable machine.

This '89 Transit is exactly that, and with a current MOT in place, it's ready and waiting to go. The conversion boasts a bed, plenty of sockets, a fridge and a compact stove-and-sink. It's a well-appointed camper that ticks all of the boxes; well worthy of attention at auction.
