71 VW Cali Import Tin Top Westy, tax free and MOT till March 2010. Went straight through the last 2 tests with no advisory's.

Imported by Kieft en Klok July 2007, Extremely solid van with original interior inc westy stool. The only bit missing is the front cab bunk.
Finished in the original colours of Chianti red with white roof. It has had some paint at some point in its life. One side is very good while the drivers side is duller and looks as though it has been parked next to bushes as it is scratched.

I bought the van from Kieft en klok in November 2007 for £9000 which included K&K lowering it on drop spindles, Fitting new wheel bearings, 4 new firestone tyres, recovering the front seats in Red and White Vinyl, replacing the brake pipes, pads & shoes, new steering arms and steering box. New Carb

Once I got it home I fitted the following new parts:

240v hook up with 2 plug sockets
Zig unit inc charger
leisure battery
12v socket
JVC head unit with IPOD connection, original stereo still in dash position
New curtains
Bosch Battery
Bosch Coil
Fuel regulator
Hella H4 RHD headlights
All new door seals
Tailgate and engine cover seals
Brand new VW mexico 1600 twin port engine (now done 3000 miles)
Clutch
Starter Motor
2ND hand Fuel Tank from FBI with new fuel gauge sender

The underside is rust free. It was cleaned and then treated with POR15 rust preventative paint.

I replaced the old sagging wooden head liner with a new one in baltic birch ply.

The vans drives superbly and needs nothing. Its ready to go camping. Included in the sale is the 3 bow roof rack and Royal Traveller Tunnel Awning which sleeps 2.

Had some great trips away in this van and its never let me down. Only selling due to our babys impending arrival. (Due tomorrow!!)

Looking for £9250ono

Located in Barnsley, south Yorkshire

Dammit... and mine is only 8 months and a hand full and she doesn't even speak yet...

Great looking bus and an absolute steal at that price... sure you want to sell ? Nothing like camping with a baby as a way of brightening up a weekend...
 
Cheers for the comments guys.

I would love to keep it, it runs perfect and everything that needed replacing has been done. Its just tieing up too much money so i'm afraid its got to go. Hopefully I'll be back soon with something a little cheaper, maybe a 60's Beetle.

by the way, the little un still hasn't arrived! 3 day overdue now
 
baby still not arrived! 10 days late but going in tomorrow so should be here by Friday :D

Sorry for not being able to arrange viewings but should be fine for any evening next week
 
Phoebe finally arrived on Saturday :D

Van still up for sale, Westfalia Campmobile SO70 - £9250 ono
