VW Transporter T5 SWB T28
Our self-build camper has brought many happy memories. From festivals (Glastonbury, Boomtown, Shambala and more) – via weekends away in the South West, Wales, the Lakes – to a honeymoon in France, Italy and Switzerland (dealing admirably with the Gotthard and Furka passes). Only selling now as family of 4 has outgrown the van, and we are making plans to convert something bigger.

Our original plan had been to add upholstered seat cushions and a small kitchen. Included in sale is the seat foam ready for upholstering in fabric of your choice. (Note that foam is a bit discoloured in places due to UV sunlight).
