It presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a well-sorted and gorgeous classic camper that is ready to be thoroughly enjoyed by its new owner.
The History and Paperwork
- Imported from dry-state Arizona in 2014 by VW Camper specialists Cool Campers in Bournemouth
- Went through an extensive restoration process including a full strip down and repaint
- Upholstery was retrimmed to the current owner’s specification by well-regarded vintage car specialists Totally Trimmed
- The current owner is the 1st registered keeper in the UK having acquired the vehicle from Cool Campers in 2015
- Receipt for engine replacement completed by VW specialists KFK in 2019
- V5C log book in the owner’s name is present
- The odometer which was put in on the build had 35000 miles on it and the owner has done 10000 miles over 7 years as documented by MOT certificates (pictured below)
After 7 years of coastal holidays and enjoyable trips to festivals, the owner has reluctantly taken the decision to part ways with her delightful T2 - named Pearl.
The Interior
- Retrimmed by Totally Trimmed in 2015 with beautiful blue plaid seats
- Interior is in fabulous condition overall with only minor wear to the flooring and a few very small marks on the seats the only real signs of use
- Amenities include working sink, gas hob, fridge plus rock and roll bed
- Technically a 4 berth, the pop-up top features a bed suitable for small children
- Leisure battery, rear seat belts and electrical hookup complete the excellent specification
- All dials, gauges and switches as well as the modern radio function correctly
- Headlining is clean and secure, with the pop-up top in good condition though it does have some light patches of mould
The current owner rates the interior as close to being a 10/10 for condition, having specifically chosen the finishings to not only reflect life in the 1970s but also be hardwearing and usable during camping trips.
Covers are always used to protect the upholstery from the sun when not in use and the door cards, headlining and dashboard are all in excellent shape.
All features are said to be functioning correctly, although the heater can be a bit patchy from time to time, a common feature of this era of VW.
The Exterior
- Exterior was professionally stripped and repainted when imported in 2015
- Gorgeous Chianti Red paintwork - an original VW colour - is therefore in excellent order
- Bodywork bears no significant damage with all panels straight, true and free from dents
- Underside is said to be clean and solid with no known evidence of prior repairs or welding
- Badges, mirrors, lights and trim pieces are all very nice
- Wheels (including the spare) in good condition and all tyres have plenty of life left in them - the two rears were replaced last year
Rated as a 9/10 for exterior condition by the vendor, this delightful bay-window camper has everything going for it.
From the stunning red paintwork to the attractive wheels and chrome trim, it really is in fantastic condition overall.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
