Collected my camper but what is it?

[Cruz]

I know , i had to bite just like those that that cant do toast just gratefull i didnt have to spend a grand to be able to use mine
mm

A grand??? Pffff. not for those who jumped on over 6 years ago

Saves me £1200 a year now That would buy lots of ear plugs

[Plasticman]

saves you 12 a year eh, see, thats what we save every year, year in year out, and when they put the duty up on the gas stuff ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh tales of woe, we shall hear you all wailing, oh and i have good sounds so never need plugs, whereas you lot need 4 of them just to make the miserable thing run

[keith]

mines fairly quiet except when im passing a fools fueler going slowly struggling to come to terms with the poor mpg.only other sound they make is that of anguish and despair as the needle zero's

i just had to bite

I knew I'd catch one Mike

LPG. So no thought required before travelling the length and breadth of UK and France

He casts the baited hook.....

Well...no thought required....just a tom tom or app to point you to places that sell your gas.....which might still be open.....so that you can gas it back up every 200 miles.....that's a lot of stops to do the length and breadth....

And... you might just fit a pair of earplugs under your seat./ in your wardrobe.....next to that big tank.

And.....I take it you prefer the ferry crossing..

[Plasticman]

well they wont . "let the train take the strain"

[Cruz]

I do like the Ferry. It's part of the relaxing holiday adventure. Never been one for dark tunnels with no views.

As for LPG fuelling I know all the stations off the top of my head on my most common motorway routes north and south and if I need one when moving from one site to another I just look in my LPG station Atlas. Can't see the hassle. I've yet to run out of LPG Horse for courses.

When in France I just used the satnaff even though they were everywhere. The Garmin was a godsend and made travelling a breeze (obviously armed with common sense when they have the occasional thrombo). Sadly Spain is a bit backwards and I had to use liquid gold

But we are digressing a little here.......

[keith]

We do digress....horses for courses as you say.

[Plasticman]

camera works well though

I've broken a couple of vans and unless you REALLY love pulling oily bits apart, advertising them, wrapping stuff and queuing at the post office then I would t go near that.

The value as I see it :

the engine £300ish IF running fine,
gearbox £200 Ditto
Early cooling system complete £150 ?
Back seat/bed another £100 if dry and without stains ( )
Fridge £50 IF safe and working 3 way
Running gear £50/corner IF not rotten

These are realistic to sell on here quite quickly, then you have the shell to have disposed of which won't be able to be towed of course but may make another £100. The interior looks shot but there might be odds and sods the peeps want.

SO, around a grand less your £500 (and you'd be out of order asking for a refund in my opinion) .... plus the time to strip it, pack stuff and post/deliver/wait in for someone to collect it. The choice is yours.

I've underlined the bit that matters
