Selling our beloved 1978 VW Type 2 Devon Campervan, “Dora”

150,000 miles (reconditioned at 100k)

Tax and MOT exempt (but passed last year before the new law came in)

Engine

– 1.6l engine, reconditioned at 100,000 miles and has run really well for the 10 years we’ve had her.

– Holley 5200 progressive carb has been fitted.

– Flamethrower coil, distributor and cables are fairly new.

Interior

– Good condition custom interior in rear, with full-width worktop including cupboards, drawers, and space for a gas cooker or sink.

– Full width rock’n’roll bed (from a Westfalia conversion) with custom upholstery, good foams and a roll-up mattress topper.

– Two 3-point seatbelts fitted.

– Two child hammock beds in the pop-top roof.

– Roof and canvas is the original Devon one, with no leaks.

– Cabin has Madmatz carpeting on floor and dashboard, under-dash storage and a buddy box between seats.

Some work will probably be needed soon:

– 4th gear is slipping, so that will need to be looked at. Pulls well in 1st to 3rd and drives fine otherwise.

– Some bodywork needed on sills and in usual areas along the bottom 6”, and rear hatch handle has come out (can send pictures on request)

Have a folder of paperwork for past MOTs and work done.

Also have an Airbeam awning, roof rack, two high-back car seats, and various spare parts for sale if wanted.
