Here for sale is our lovely VW camper, Pearl. We've had some fantastic trips with her but reluctantly don't have the time anymore as kids are grown and we have other priorities so it's time for a new family to enjoy her.
Starting off with the bad bits - exterior Paintwork isn't the best - peeling in a few places and a bit patchy. That said, the bodywork underneath is pretty decent for age, ie it's solid and there isn't tons of filler or welding in there. We have had a small patch of welding done on the roof - not visible unless you climb on the roof!
Interior needs some work - this is cosmetic really so could be seen as a plus point if you want to put your own stamp on it. We have stripped it back to the metal, treated it and boarded it out, plus added a rock and roll bedframe. It still needs some work on the ceiling - it has some sort of felt on there at the minute but it could do with being re-covered. The bed needs upholstery and it needs curtains. There's the option to add some sort of little kitchen unit and / or table if required. Would also be ideal for a pop top conversion if that's your thing.
Now for the good bits!
MOT and tax exempt
Air cooled.
Very low mileage for age, under 100k.
Original engine! Starts on the button every time, mechanically sound.
Isolator switch for the battery, in the engine bay
Imported from Cyprus (on a RAF carrier!) where it was an ambulance - nice little bit of history. Hot climate in Cyprus means it's all solid underneath etc. Standard right hand drive and UK registered.
She really does drive great and we've never had any mechanical problems with her.
Any inspection welcome.
