Well, here she is, I have deliberated long enough and decided it is time for our lovely van which has brought us much joy over the sunny months to go to a caring home. We've had her for three years and she has taken us all on many holidays and family days out.

Here's the spec;
Date of first registration is 01/05/1971 so registered as a Historic Vehicle (Tax Free)
Engine is 1679cc with 13,000 miles on the clock (gone round once)
Taxed until next year and MOT'd until July 2011.

Only 4 previous owners since new (2 of which were in the same family - father and son)
Right Hand Drive walkthrough model.
Lowered one spline at the rear and has adjusters fitted to the front beam.
Running on 15" Fuch Replicas, spare included.
New Cd stereo fitted last Summer with the option of playing DVD's if a screen were to be fitted.
New window rubbers.

Resprayed three years ago - sea spray white over light green colour scheme.
Fitted with a Devon pop top with the drawers still intact and in good condition behind the back seat. The pop top has only the one bunk but I do have the second bunk which will need some refurbishment (poles may need powder coating and new canvas). There is a Danbury conversion badge on the tailgate so I presume there was a Danbury interior at some point. There is now a back bench seat with storage underneath and also a side bench seat also with storage space underneath.

Excellent runner, good gear box and brakes, excellent underneath, very solid.
Couple areas of rust (see pictures) but can be sorted easily enough.

Much loved and cherished van, sorry to see her go but am planning to buy an earlier model.
Price Now £8,500.
