Description
This is Riley and he needs a new home.
A rarity in so many ways - a 1973 VW Westfallia Campervan in RHD with very low-mileage and UK-supplied.
Originally delivered as a 1700cc Automatic, if benefits from being upgraded to the much sought-after 2 litre engine and manual gearbox, allowing it to keep up with modern day traffic with enviable ease. Get behind the customised steering wheel which is engraved with Riley’s name, and you'll soon feel those holiday vibes as you drives on your way in a surprisingly compliant and direct manner - although in the typically eccentric style so admired of these particular Volkswagens.
Resplendent in two-tone Orange and White paintwork, its exterior condition belies its 49 years of age and presents superbly well. But it’s when you open the door that this camper shines.
The interior has been treated to a thorough, bespoke makeover with a craftsmanship that is exemplary.
The seats feature a complimentary orange and green Gingham cloth insert, with solid orange outers and piping. The windows are clothed with green curtains. There’s a Rusty Lee rock and roll double bed, a front-hinged pop-top roof with new canvas and mosquito netting, a luxurious memory foam mattress, a stainless steel sink, a fridge, a 2-ring gas cooker, a foldaway table (removable), a centre console with storage and drink holders, a stereo with multiple speakers and a sub-woofer, and lots and lots of additional storage cupboards.
For conveniences, there’s an electric water pump, a 240v hook-up connection and a leisure battery with double plug sockets in the bench seat.
Included within the sale is colour-coded crockery, cutlery, pots and pans, two fold-away chairs, an orange awning and a windbreak..
With a vast history file, the mileage of a mere 39, 000 miles can be warranted through the many documents the camper has collected over the years. Within the many invoices and MOT certificates are the original VW handbook, an instruction manual for the use of the camper’s facilities, many campervan related books, and most interestingly, a lovely hand-written hardback book detailing some of its early history by previous owners.
Supplied with everything you would need to get away on that long-promised vacation, this camper represents excellent value.
The car will be given a 12-month MOT with no advisories and will further benefit from a 12-month warranty.
With great provenance, a big engine, the perfect gearbox, a wow interior and in superb overall condition - all it needs now is someone to share some new adventures with.
