Detailed Information
Vehicle Description

Meet Monty – our lovingly converted campervan, designed with long term European adventure, comfort, and self-sufficiency in mind. His name takes inspiration from our travels in him to Mont Blanc. Monty doesn’t just look amazing inside and out, but he is designed to be 100% off grid and has has plenty of capacity for food, water, and electricity and a large garage space for sports equipment for big adventures.

We are selling Monty as we now have some different adventures in mind and will be sad to see him go.

He is a Citroen Relay 35 L3H2 ENTERPRISE HDI van with a 2.198cc manual transmission diesel engine. 112,000 miles on the clock, and an MOT dating 9th July 2024. Drives nicely, benefiting from a new clutch and turbo fitted in 2023. He had been lovingly serviced by us over the years including new pollen filters, oil changes, oil filter changes in addition to a new sump (professionally garage fitted).

Full transparency, Monty is classed as Cat D due to an accident with his first owner who couldn’t afford to fix him. The local garage we bought Monty from fully repaired him back in 2017 and he is in great working condition. We bought the van from the garage and converted him with the use of local experts and have enjoyed many adventures since. Prior to purchasing the van ourselves, we checked with several insurance companies who confirmed that the Cat D did not impact the cost or scope of insurance. Be assured, we have had no problems insuring this van. His age, history and use is reflected fairly in the price and therefore while we might be open to sensible discussions around price, we are looking for serious buyers.

Take a look at the pictures and you’ll love him as much as we do!

**Conversion Features**
As you step inside, you’ll be greeted by a bright, airy space adorned in clean white and soothing Pimlico decor, all lovingly painted with durable, washable paint. The walls and ceiling are clad in charming tongue-and-groove paneling, adding a natural touch to Monty’s interior.

The heart of Monty is his cozy, L-shaped seating area, comfortably accommodating 3-4 people—a perfect spot for unwinding after a day of exploration. A removable table provides flexibility, whether you’re dining, working, or playing board games stored neatly in the ample overhead compartments. These spaces are designed with adventure in mind, offering plenty of room for books, games, and everything you need for life on the road.

The flooring is laid with tile-effect vinyl, combining practicality with the look of a classic tiled floor, easy to clean after those muddy hikes or beach strolls. Natural colors throughout the van complement the stunning full-length nature mural, which brings a piece of the outdoors inside, creating a harmonious flow between Monty and the great landscapes you’ll explore together. Where possible, bamboo has been used to enhance this connection to nature, lending a sustainable and stylish touch to the design.

For those who travel with four-legged friends, Monty is perfectly equipped with a built-in doggy door, allowing easy access for your companion to move freely between the main cabin and the rear of the van. This thoughtful feature ensures that every member of your adventure crew is catered for.

Monty’s windows are dressed with handmade curtains, crafted from wax-effect fabric. Not only do these add to the boho-inspired and pastel decor, but they’re also practical, ensuring no dampness seeps in from condensation, keeping the interior cozy and dry.

With Monty, you’re not just buying a campervan—you’re investing in a home on wheels, designed to bring comfort and style to every journey. Whether you’re planning weekend getaways or long-term travels, Monty is ready to be your perfect off-grid companion.
