P reg late bay camper, imported from Germany in 1994 so LHD. Good strong 1600 engine and polished Porsche teledial alloys with good tyres. Lowered 2 splines at the rear and adjusters on front beam. Part Devon interior with cooker, tap and pump unit, bench seat, Devon table and 2 x buddy/storage seats.

Been off the road 2 years due to engine fault, engine has now been rebuilt with good 2nd hand barrels and pistons and 2nd hand heads.

It was an awful colour scheme of orange, black and white, meant to look like a tiger, but was awful. So we're given it a quick over paint with a roller and satin metal paint to look more presentable. but please note its no great paint job!

The good points are the chassis is great, maybe the odd patch required, the roof gutters are excellent the engine is rebuilt and the brakes and steering are positive. I suggest as with any vehicle that has been off the road for a few years it has new fuel hoses and the brake checked out.

If I was to keep it i'd fit a new off side front door as it is shot and repair or replace the sliding door. I would suggest that 2 weekends work would have it ready for an MOT and then it could be a rolling restoration project.

I have too many projects at the moment, so need to let this go. With an MOT it must be worth a lot more. But need it gone as dont have time to complete, hence £2,800 and can arange to have it delivered for a good rate if that seals the deal.

In the process of painting it satin green and grey, just to make it a uniform colour and look less hippy:lol:

I see it as a rolling resto once it's MOT'd.
 
Photos from today, all paint complete, drives and stops nicely.

ready to take for an MOT.
