The Appeal
Let's face it, our beloved Type 2 vans aren't getting any younger. In the age of 'Smart Motorways' and fast-moving traffic, these aged camper vans need all the help they can get.
That's where this one comes up trumps...
Upgraded with a 1.9-litre Peugeot turbodiesel engine that will undoubtedly go on and on, this camper-converted 'Bay Window' Microbus is among the most usable on the market today. Moreover, it boasts a Dormobile elevating roof, new interior and repainted bodywork.
The vendor garage-stores the van, and they tell us it's never taken out in inclement weather. It comes with a wealth of paperwork spanning many years, including previous MOT certificates and servicing invoices. It's now tax/MOT-exempt and classed as a 'Historic Vehicle' by the DVLA.IMG_2225 wayne machan.JPG3.98 MB
