Trendy! Going wth "shag" carpet?

Gob, I haven't owned a leisure van since the early '70s... a Dodge Swing Machine.
Your camper van has 135,000 miles and is 15 years old. Is £8750 ($12536) the going rate for such a well used vehicle? I feel fairly certain that you wouldn't have bought it had you not been confident about its condition, but the price seems higher than the average.
Regardless, happy motoring.

Re: Vanlife...
It's slightly high for the model and year. I had a friend who knows a great deal about motor-homes check it out, and his verdict was that the conversion is very professional, it comes with many extras, and it's got a very sound engine and low miles. The seller had service and MOT details going back to 2008, and it's been very well cared for. The owner was a sound bloke, and was only selling as his wife is 8 months up the duff and they want to upgrade to a new one when the sprog is old enough to travel. ( We met the wife, and the pregnancy is obviously factual.)RayThom wrote:

We're treating it as a learning experience, and if we still enjoy motor-home touring after 2-4 years, will lash out £££££'s on a new one. If use it for 2 to 4 years, that works out at (in terms of purchase price,) £4,125 to £2,062 a year. That we think is a reasonable price to experiment with. Obvs an older van may have higher running, servicing and MOT costs, but that's taken as a given.
We actually paid £8250 after haggling.

Are you going to give it a psychedelic paint job? That would be far out, man.

Re: Vanlife.....
Hm. My wife and I are thinking of visiting England later this year, probably in September, and I was planning to ask you if we could visit. Does this mean you won't be there when we get there?
