Spotted this today. Posted up yesterday on YouTube. A lot packed into quite a small van. Not 100% sure about the retractable loo...
Now they are crying when Swansea wont register them as a motorcaravan..At least he has a loo, Iām looking at used vans and noticed how many āoff roadā , āwild campā, āoff gridā or whatever else you like to call it have no loo or shower at all, some asking over Ā£50 grand!!! Yes really Ā£50K and nowhere to go except behind a bush, EBay have loads of these home made vans, Christ knows what they weigh with more wood in them that the Black Forest.
Not to mention the Gateau ... And the weight of the Tijuana Brass and that Herb Albert ...At least he has a loo, Iām looking at used vans and noticed how many āoff roadā , āwild campā, āoff gridā or whatever else you like to call it have no loo or shower at all, some asking over Ā£50 grand!!!

There was ayoung man from Westfalia,Built my 1st van on a mk1 vw lt base minibus they are a compact size due to the engine between the seats. we had everything we needed for 2 adults and 2 kids including a toilet room great vans. The westfalia florida packs a ton of stuff into these.

I had to take it to the VW main dealer, and they said the oppositeWhat a beauty of a van.
The cab is VW's, the MAN 8 series used a widened version of the LT cab.
Typical, main dealers are usually clueless.I had to take it to the VW main dealer, and they said the opposite
I just had a quick google and found this bit of infoTypical, main dealers are usually clueless.
Probably best off looking on mobile.de, if you want one. Usually a few there. They won't be cheap though.
'are driving me nuts' That's what I told Elaine the steering wheel in my knickers was for ...It's not for sale, btw, in case anybody was wondering whether we were up for buying it!
Gutted this morning as just narrowly missed out on a pretty decent Autosleeper Nuevo in Colne, Lancashire which would have suited us perfectly.
Deposit has been accepted from a buyer yesterday who is returning with the balance tomorrow. Buyer apparently "has a caravan to sell"... hmmmm
Seller (seemed genuine enough) will get back to me if it falls through, but probably not much hope of that.
It also had 2 x refillable Gaslo bottles + solar panel as extras, low miles and a pretty decent MOT history (as far as you can trust MOT histories, that is )
The frustrating search continues, but van withdrawal symptoms are driving me nuts .....!!!
'No, not that type of stroke, it'll risk another heart attack ...'I think you need another stroke, where's me fecking hammer.
