The vendor has provided the model of the vehicle to be a Volkswagen T2 Baywindow Camper. Please confirm upon your own inspection.

The vendor has provided the following:

  • 1971 large Viking roof camper
  • It has had a new engine (uprated 1641cc) 4 years ago, the mileage then was 46202, the mileage now is so it is only just run in
  • It also had a new gearbox back in 2022, so all the running gear is as new
  • This was all purchased from TES engines, who are well-renowned for building air-cooled VW stuff
  • Twin carbs fitted and with the uprated engine, the van gets down the road nicely and cruises easily down the motorway
  • The interior is good with matching door cards and front seats
  • It has a new leisure battery and a split charge system
  • It hooks up to the electricity when camping
  • It has a fridge, sink with water storage and pump, and a gas hob
  • The interior lighting and stereo all run from the leisure battery
  • It has good storage and a 3/ 4 rock and roll bed
  • The Viking pop top is the large-sized one that enables a number of people to sleep in the roof
  • The pop-up works fine
  • The canvas is watertight but has had a few patch repairs
  • The body work is in decent order in the main, but the bottom of the sliding door could do with replacing
  • It is not a show winner
  • Loads of history in the file going back many years
