If that doesn't work try the Van Cave epic swamper build
Hello all,
Due to family getting older and wanting to experience things on their own more, holidays with mum and dad are getting far less attractive. Mum’s also not so keen if truth be told. So unfortunately my van is not really serving any purpose for us anymore. I’m reluctant to move it on, it’s a bit too extravagant to be sat on the drive.
As you will see no money has been spared on this van. Im not sure how to price this and would appreciate some advise. Sell it as a whole with all parts included or remove bits and sell the van on its own? and most important what price point do you think is acceptable. There is no VAT to pay on this van.
The van has two owners, one chap who had it for three months and then me. He did 3,000 miles I have done 13,252 so in total its only covered 16,252miles in just under 3 years. First MOT due 8th March 2024. I will get this done. First service on the two year schedule was under taken by Bognor Motors when I had the drivability map installed. Much smoother now.
So on to the important bits. Please stick with me as this could go on a bit and I don’t want to miss anything.
