Description
We've decided to let our beloved 1971 VW T2 LHD campervan go. Reg MCW519J Our family is just too big for her. She's been with us for 6 years and we've spent loads on her. She's completely rot-free, mechanically and visually bomb-proof and ready to make another family's VW dream come true!
She's ready to go - no work needed, everything included that you need. You could buy and go on an adventure the next day.
- Imported in 2012 from California and then fully restored - more modern interior. I then fixed all the little bits left in 2017 - all little bits of rust removed, and fully waxoiled and undersealed.
- New 1776cc, twin carbs engine - installed about 10k miles ago. Lots more torque to make her a comfortable motorway cruiser at 60mph. The combo of 1776cc and twin ICT carbs gives much more power for the same fuel consumption as a stock 1600cc engine. Electronic ignition, new oil-breather, oil temp and pressure gauges, ethanol-safe fuel lines, fuel pressure regulator etc. She's super reliable.
- New exhaust system - stainless steel Heritage Sport exhaust
- New Bilstein shock absorbers - massively improved ride, now deals with roundabouts like a car, not a boat. New tyres about 2k miles ago.
- Fully-loaded family camper - Westfalia roof for two kids, full-width rock and roll bed, modern fridge, sink and water tank, gas heating and hobs, lots of storage, electric hook up, new leisure battery with split charger.
- 3-point seatbelts front and rear - you can safely have two child seats in the rear, unlike most T2s.
- Detachable towbar - we use it to bring bikes along with us.
- LED lights - new LED side and brake lights - so others can actually see you at night.
- Loads of 'quality of life' improvements, e.g. Butty Bits throttle, parabolic wing mirrors so there's no blindsports. Gas heating for when it gets chilly. Chocks, ramps etc for easy camping.
- Drive-away and sun awning - Vango airbeam drive-away awning included. It can easily fit an extra couple of people. Also includes a smaller, simpler sun awning.
- Waterproof van cover included (for when not in use)
- MOT and tax exempt, although this has been regularly serviced by T2 Detectives - the best in the business - and Mot'd
- Always garaged - lives in dry garage in North London
- Spares included - comes with lots of spares we've built up over the years to keep you going.
- Can be viewed in north London - Finsbury Park/Highbury area. Any questions - please ask.
