1972 Volkswagen T2B For Sale

The Appeal

For many the definitive classic van, the Volkswagen Type 2 remains perenially popular, especially as a basis for a camper conversion.

This eight-seater transporter is commendably original and in fantastic condition throughout. It’s unusual to find one which still has its factory minibus interior and indeed the vendor had intended to convert it to a campervan although they never found the time. Retrofitted with air conditioning for added comfort on long road trips, this van is brimming with potential and we’re sure it has a bright future ahead of it.
