Viewing the camper in Scotland is welcomed for serious buyers. You will need the correct licence endorsement to test-drive the truck. We are based in Hamilton, near Glasgow.
The camper has been exclusively pet-free, smoke-free and child-free, and is presented in excellent condition.
The camper is sold in as-is, as-seen condition, and no guarantee or warranty is expressed or implied. Payment by bank transfer only, and vehicle will be released only after funds have cleared (bank clearance for fraud, money laundering etc) which usually takes 48 hrs.
