Ford Transit Campervan .
Well it has now become time to sell our beloved camper van. We have lived in the UK for six years now and had it for around 5 years. We are now relocating back to South Africa and sadly have to part with it. As we have loved it so much, I will be taking time to write this advert. We have used it extensively at every available opportunity, touring the UK, France, The Netherlands etc. We are now towards the end of a three month trip around Europe. We plan to be back early September. We are based around Surrey area where the van can be viewed. As we are flying back, all Lonely Planets, UK and some EU road maps, etc. will be left in van. Now about the Van:-
• Ford Transit 1988 2.5 Ltr Diesel
• 5 Speed manual gearbox
• Amazing fuel economy
• 154000 miles and engine running like a dream ( good old Ford tractor engine, everlasting )
What we have done to it
• I have had the gearbox and diff completely overhauled, paperwork available
• I imported a new prop shaft in wooden crate and had it fitted
• I have had a new clutch assembly fitted
• I have had a new alternator fitted
• Two new batteries
Now about the accessories
• Tom Tom Satnav with UK and Europe maps
• 240 volt inverter
• 12 volt battery charger
• Barbeque

Bad points
• Due to its age, it does not comply with the emission zone laws so it can not go into central London
• There is some very minor rust which is normal for a van this old
• Minor clutch shudder when cold which is characteristic for this model
Optional extras £ 300.00 (neg.)
Two bikes large, male and female. Shimano 24 gears, Original cost £ 300 each.
• Female bike – Raleigh: with added rear carrier and basket, gel seat , mud guards
