0L diesel with a 6-speed manual gearbox. Originally started out as a Combi, has also the original Sportline alloys, chrome side bars on both sides. Has also a detachable tow bar. Again, driver's side, original Sportline alloys, chrome side bar.
Alloy again. The vehicle has covered, currently and is being used daily, 135,749, so we're looking at 136,000 miles. Captain's seats in the front, which do swivel and have been re-upholstered to match the bed in the back in this gorgeous green leather. Air conditioning, has a Pioneer head unit with all your functions on it.
6-speed manual. So, we'll take a look inside. First of all, the back. A ribbed rock and roll bed, tiny little bit of storage in the back and access also underneath the ribbed bed.
If you wanted to fill it with your camping gear, that's the jack in the wheelbase. Also down in here you have a warning triangle. And a little bit more storage. So, plenty of space.
Couple of nice little coat hooks. Has tinted windows. As you can see, paintwork does need a bit of a TLC, but mechanically the vehicle is fine, drives lovely. There you go, there's your ribbed bed.
So, you have your wardrobe, a little bit more storage, lots more storage. Fridge. Nice and clean. Drawer on the top for your cutlery, cooking utensils.
Now, in this cabinet on the left hand side, I'll try and open this. A small gas bottle and once again, storage. You then have on the top, your two burner hob. Also, you have sink, washing tap, controls for the vehicle.
Down here, you'll see a diesel heater. And the conversion was actually carried out by a company called New Wave, which I do believe are based in Swansea. And so there you have it. A 2012 Volkswagen Transporter with a pop roof.
Sleeps for, ideal as a weekend or day van vehicle. With a tow bar, so mountain biking, road biking, perfect. Share your thoughts.
