Thanks, some do ours cost us £700,with 12 month tax and Mot, 4 years ago, it was derelict inside and leak in from the roof, I stripped it all out and rebuilt it with new walls and floor, the seating, kitchen, shower room, from a donor caravan, fixed the roof, my sister did all the upholstery and curtains, as she's a seamstress, so she did it for free, total cost £280, the last job was the respray, that cost £600, our sons mate did it cheap for us, and hes done a great job it nice and shinny (y) I have some interior photos some where of before and after, think there on TP some where

Something like that or perhaps a tad smaller would suit me down to the ground for my weekends away marshalling
Not fond of being under canvas,my towing days are behind me,(don't think a pun was intended there :LOL:) and finding a bargain priced Travelodge is nigh on impossible for the dates I need
Looks a tidy piece of kit,well done on the restoration,any downsides to having one....insurance,fuel ?
 
I love to see it with a new lease of life, it looks great..roll on summer....I considered a campervan but with 4 in our family it may have been a bit cramped unless we could find a good winnibego, however we have had great times in our 30 year old trailer tent..and still do.....round of applause to your sons mate for doing a good job!!
 
I read that as "we had our camera resprayed" :LOL:

Been looking out for a van myself for a wee while, but most have turned out to be vastly overpriced given the amount of work they needed. Hopefully there will be some bargains around in the run up to christmas though :naughty:

:LOL: to the camera,

its the best time to buy now at least you can tell if they leak, we were lucky to get it at that price, we saw it parked up at the road side, we had a look, told our son whos a mechanic to come and have a look by the time we got back it had gone, next day early 7am in the morning Julie saw it go past our house so she ran out with her pyjamas on jumped in the car and chased it, that day we went to see it he wanted £900, in the end he settled for £700 cash there and then, the guy drove it to our house, then I ripped everything out down to the bare shell, and over next 2 months, I replaced it all, Richie serviced it all, and did all the mechanical work on it,we could then use it, Julie found us an freestanding awning for £30, and weve have had loads of great times over the years, then last week it went had a new windowscreen by Richies mate Ben and his mate Kev sprayed it a lot of work but its worth it (y)
