We bought ‘Baloo’ in 2019 as a pre-converted campervan. We completed a 4 month trip around Europe, and have since been using for holidays, festivals and weekends away. Baloo has served us well over the past 6 years.

We are selling as she's big for parking on our small street in Bristol, so have bought/converted a new, smaller van. Her size is ideal for long travels or living, being really spacious inside. She needs new owners to take her on more adventures.
She has a couple of minor issues (detailed below), however starting well and ready to go, and with bit of love and attention, issues can be fixed easily / good canvas to edit and make your own.

Van details:

Fixed bed width ways (we built a simple makeshift extension for option for sleeping lengthways – however we're now using this in our new van. We can show you our simple construction)

110amp Leisure battery / Split charge relay / LED lights / mains hook up / Four port 12v connector / Diesel heater installed (however not currently connected to electrics) /240v Inverter

Kitchen unit with Dometic 2 hob sprit cooker (methylated spirits) and sink (needs new water pump)

Extensive storage space: cupboards below and above kitchen unit / cupboards next to and above bed / space above cab /large storage under the bed (access from boot)

Towshore awning 3.6m x 2.4m / Thetford Porto Porto / Cool box / Roof fan
