I was in a little dream, scrolling Autotrader for "the perfect base van" to build a one off van with every spec I'd like......then I saw this......

Yep, knew it was going to be either vanhaven or leighton vans before I clicked the link.

They're nice vans, and I'm sure a wealthy retiree will probably spend a portion of their tax free lump sum on that, but yeah, that money for a van (albeit a posh van) is just ridiculous.

 

[T6Paul]

Nice van but that’s crazy money!

 

[david173]

Wow!! that is just crazy, for that money I would want free fuel for life

 

[TheGrapeEscape]

Nice van but that’s crazy money!

I agree. It is nice, but is it practical? If I was spending that sort of cash, I wouldn't want 4 seats like that

 

[david173]

not even 4 motion.

The VAT kills it for me

The £98,000 kills it for me

 

[oldiebut goodie]

Not even LED headlights for that price!
Personally I think it looks crap - not to my liking at all.

 

[Johny]

So no one wants it then?

 

[Sasquatch]

Holy Trump!

 

[thebuzz555]

100k wow, I know transporters are expensive but thats ridiculous.

 

[Sackmycook]

Wonder how much for the full camper version ?

 

[Badjamin]

Hasn't even got solar. It's a nice van but... wow...

 

[jimc91]

The buyer will be on the forum asking how the leisure battery works anytime soon..

 

[TallPaul_S]

Hasn't even got solar. It's a nice van but... wow...

It has a "split charger" and a "leisure battery" - that's it, no further details. I'd want a 230Ah LifePO4, full victron kit for the price that van is - I mean even then it's 'only' £1500 for that sort of set up - but I bet it's just a basic AGM battery split charge system, not even a DC-DC.

For that kind of money I'd want a nude Rosamund Pike and a packet of viagra in the back.

Oh c'mon - who needs viagra when you have Rosamund?

 

[Stay Frosty]

Bagsy third in line then even though I would obviously prefer sloppy seconds, how come I always miss out on the bargains?

I'm old. Who needs Rosamund when you have Viagra?
