Ford Transit MK8 (new styling), high roof long wheelbase L3H3
New style 2014 Ford Transit with brand new (zero miles) 2L engine fitted in 2021 (now 6,000 miles old). 6 speed manual gearbox. Last MOT was July 2023 – pass with no advisories. Full service history. Great condition for age. Great runner and perfect family or adventure camper van.
Some small bodywork damage consistent with age and use, but nothing major – main damage is a dent on the side door 9see photos) which was caused by the previous owners. Has never caused us any problems so have not replaced.
Includes:
Air conditioning, Cruise control, Auto headlights, Auto windscreen wipers, Electric folding wingmirrors, Bluetooth radio, phone and CD player, Rear facing reversing camera, Front and rear parking sensors, Rhino roof rack with rear roller, 3 belted (3-point) seats
Fully converted for off-grid living. We spent 3 months in Spain living mostly off-grid (refreshing water once a week for 2 adults and a toddler). Ample space within the van to live and work, with full power set up – we have never needed to use our shore power connection, with solar set up ample to power living in and around the van with fans on all day, lights on all night, and 240V power supply to work from the van full time.
Converted in a way so that the van can cover all that you need – pull out utility desk allows for food prep or to act as a work desk. Swivel front seats allow for space to sit at foldable dining table. Sink and kitchen area allow for food prep, and plenty of storage throughout for all the family needs. Full size double bed with comfy mattress topper to make it feel like home.
Plenty of storage in the main living area and to the side of the bed, and a large garage style storage accessed from the back allows for all you ever need to take with you, including bikes, surf boards, buggies, wine storage and whatever else you want!
