Description
We are delighted to introduce this remarkably original example of a 1973 Volkswagen Type 2 Bay Window Westfalia camper van. Optioned with the ‘Continental’ interior layout means this camper comes with a plethora of amenities that can accommodate up to four occupants.
Beginning with the interior, it showcases a corner bench featuring a fold-out table, comfortably seating up to four individuals with the included stool. The rear bench transforms into a rock and roll double bed, while the pop-up roof provides additional sleeping space. The upper bed can be elevated to provide additional standing room within the vehicle. Furthermore, the pop-up canopy includes three windows with zip covers that can bring air and extra light into the vehicle when opened. The furniture is equipped with numerous storage cupboards, complemented by a built-in fridge, gas hob, and sink.
Transitioning to the exterior, which boasts originality, the vehicle is finished in a white-on-white colour scheme that complements its vibrant interior and the pop-up roof canopy. While this Type 2 has undergone restoration work over the years to maintain its current condition. With the exception of a few rust bubbles beneath the paint and minor wear within the interior, which are typical for a vehicle of its age.
This Volkswagen has been in the great care of the specialist team at Absolute VW. Mechanically, it requires no further attention. Absolute VW have recently installed brand new Spax shock absorbers on all corners. For those prioritising safety, this camper van is equipped with a fuel safety shut-off solenoid and a fire extinguisher system integrated into the engine bay. Additionally, it features two rear seat belts securing passengers seated on the rear bench, providing peace of mind for back-seated occupants during travel.
This Type 2 stands as an exceptional example and a fully prepared Westfalia camper van, ready for immediate use.
Located at Absolute VW Ltd, Shardlow, Derbyshire, UK (DE72 2GP) available for viewing on ramps and test drive with one of the team. Feel free to give us a call and we can talk you through it in finer details.
