Club 80-90 Forums

After a rather large let down of a viewing, me and my dad decided to check out a local T4 campervan conversion company known as "Bilbos" just to ask some questions and get an insight into the camper scene. We asked if they ever get any older campervans through their stock that would be worth viewing and is if by fate the salesman took us around the back and showed us an old T25 that had just been brought in by a kind old man.

With all original interior and no massive visable rust marks, only 57,000 miles on the clock and one owner buying the camper for £3250 seemed like a no brainer.

The camper was fully furbished 4 berth with the 1.9l watercooled petrol engine.

Does it have the large pop top that lifts up and the base extends sideways over the sliding door and does it have a flip up buddy seat behind the passenger seat? Cos I think that might be a slightly altered Xplorer interior. What year is it?

Looks great, love the radio and the seats

A beauty

Like the retro radio.

I am seriously jealous

Looks really nice, price seems good too!

1664,

yes it has the large pop top that goes up sideways and the flip down buddy seat behind the passenger seat

considering keeping the whole thing retro and not straying too far from the original design, just get some new captain seats in the front and clean it up a bit.

one very happy young camper !!!

Seems a good buy to me

Looks really nice, price seems good too!

If your a happy young camper then it's worth every penny......enjoy

I'll double check the year when im home, ill be updating with pics as i go through the refurb!

my absolute pride and joy!!!

I'm not sure how long they made that conversion for - latest I'd seen was about '83. The interior is the same layout but the sink and cooker are different from the early ones. Very nice conversion though and certainley looks like you've landed on your feet there, enjoy!!

Looks gorgeous. I love the retro radio too and adore those front seats.I want some lol

Methinks youve got good times ahead

Wow! Looks really great - and a bargain
I can understand your excitement!

Keep the seats. They are brilliant. And they match the curtains.

It's a bargain. I paid much more for a lot less.

That looks really good, it looks from the pics like a bargain

You have to keep those seats !! (if they fitted in with my interior I would be saying fit the captain seats and sell those to me, but they don't because mine is grey). Aye, keep it as retro

If it does not have much rust, then you have done well, and from a company who should have known it's value
