SUMMARY

A delightfully original VW Camper having been in the same family ownership from day one.

DESCRIPTION

  • The current recorded mileage, 46,817 at the time of viewing, is correct and warranted
  • Accompanied by the original purchase invoice and order form together with relevant instruction manuals, service books and associated invoices
  • Will be serviced prior to sale as the current custodian intends to drive the Camper to the sale, some 150 miles
  • Recent works include a replacement exhaust system, heat exchangers and a thorough brake overhaul
  • Rarely do such original, low-owner, low-mileage examples come to the open market, with this Devon Moonraker being the exception
  • Your early inspection is welcomed and encouraged prior to sale
