First registered in May 1969, this is one of the earliest bay campervans imported into the UK and it’s still going strong
The original service booklet as well as lots of other paperwork is included
You won’t find a better example of a classic early Bay Campervan. An original and historic vehicle - yet it still drives well in modern traffic conditions
Garaged and well maintained by its present owner
The bodywork and underbody are in excellent condition making it an eye-catching vehicle that always attracts attention
A new Bosch starter motor was installed in 2024, along with new brakes and cylinders. The accelerator linkage assembly was renewed in 2025
She starts first time every time and is a smooth runner
The van has its original Dormobile interior conversion with gas cooker, fridge and proper melamine worktops as well as press-stud blackout curtains. They don’t make ‘em like this any more
For camping, there is a more recently installed leisure battery and 240V hookup connection
As well as the double bed, there are two built-in hammocks and the original dining table
The bellows of the elevating roof canopy have been replaced in green and white striped material
The vehicle was driven to the auction by the current owner.
