For sale: a beautifully converted VW T25 high-top campervan, reg G205 SGO. This van has had over £20,000 spent on it — new engine, new gearbox, power steering conversion, and a full mechanical overhaul — alongside a high-quality interior conversion. Unfortunately the (replacement) engine has now failed, and I don't have the budget to fix it again, so I'm selling as a project for someone who wants a van that just needs an engine to be back on the road and ready for years of trouble-free touring.
The conversion:
- 4-berth layout — double bed in the elevating roof, plus a second double below
- Full kitchen: sink with mixer tap, built-in microwave, USB and 240V sockets, storage drawers
- Smart red/cream diamond-stitched leather-look upholstery throughout, wood-rim steering wheel
- Rear bike rack fitted
- Well travelled and camping-ready — this van has done Alpine passes and UK festival fields alike
Mechanical history (recent, receipted):
- Engine replaced
- Gearbox replaced (£3000 worth)
- Power steering installed (£2000 worth)
- Full mechanical rebuild — over £20k spent in total
Why it's for sale:
The replacement engine has since broken down, and I can't justify further spend on it myself. Everything else — gearbox, power steering, interior, electrics — is in excellent condition and ready to go. This is a rare chance to get a van with all the expensive, hard work already done, for the price of an engine and a bit of labour.
Sold as a renovation project — running, but currently not driveable due to engine failure. Viewing welcome, all history/receipts available.
