Hi, i am new to the VW scene and would like a good honest and if possible rust free camper.
Keep looking on the usual internet sites but can only find piles of junk.
As long as its got a rock and roll bed i can fit out the rest of the interior if needed. Dont want a project as i am a mechanic and dont want to be having to do engine rebuilds at the weekend.
Only thing is as with everything i am on a budget of no more than £8000 ish.
Its a big ask but has anyone got my ideal bus for sale or does anyone know what sites i could look on apart from the usual.
 
Hi, my bus is up for grabs. I'm in Stafford. It was recently on Ebay but didn't sell.

I'm open to offers.

Have a look.

Cheers

Tim

Hi,
Here's another option:

I suggest you try the Samba.com

You can pick up a good Californian bus for 3-5K import it for £1,500 and save 2-3K. Don't be rash, don't rush in to buying have a good look around here in the UK and US.

Also have a very good spit but will be sold separate but can't let it go with out bus
 
Thanks to all who responded to this post, just to clarify a few points.
No projects as i dont really have time to do major jobs.
Would like a taxed and tested runner with minor imperfections not a problem.
I know its a big ask for a tidy bay for my budget of £8000 ish but someone must have a tidy bay that they want rid of before winter sets in.
I dont mind travelling a bit but i live in Yorkshire so as close as possible.
Would settle for a late bay but would like tax exempt if possible.
Someone must have my ideal camper :)
Please help, money burning a hole in my pocket.
 
Try restore and more NE, in Chester Le Street, near Durham.
They might have a late bay, tin top, runner, driver, good original paint, part westy interior around that price ;) at least last time I was there they did, 1 week ago!
Tell em Lee sent you!
Find them on face book or contact Taypic on here!

Hi, still looking?
'Leela' is my almost completely original 1972 ‘crossover’ Dormobile which is road tax free and has the added benefit of an LPG conversion!
Bought her in 2010, I had various bodywork and other repairs done to pass the MOT. She is in great useable condition. If you send me your email address I can send you a timeline of everything done to the van since last owner bought her in 2005. (I can't do it here!). I was given all MOT's receipts etc from then which confirm it all.
My e-mail address is:garylynda83 AT gmail.com
A few minor jobs here and there are all that is needed and only an MOT & LPG test are required to get her on -the-road and rolling, which is still our plan to get done. Family issues prevented us from using her last year. She is started up periodically even though currently SORN'ed.
We are not desperate to sell 'Leela' but it is highly unlikely we will not be using her for what she is built to do... go camping! We need more seats now so I am now considering changing to a Type 2 six/seven-seater Combi or 'bus' instead.
All the pics & misc. info have been put in my photobucket: - feel free to have a browse and see what you think of her!

A current agreed value (for insurance purposes) of £11000 was made by my insurers. I would consider an offer above that value.
Let me know if you interested or need more info.
Thanks for your interest.
Cheers
Gary
