T25 Camper
Posted: Sat Mar 26, 2016 8:59 am
New toy for me
Very impromptu and not planned but sometimes things are presented to you and you think why not.
I've had a few campers over the years and sold my last VW Splitscreen bus many moons ago. With 2 kids and an extended family these days I thought why not have another camper for days out and a bit of camping
My old mucker Miggs and co founder of this church is going through a few life changes himself and wanted to part with his T25 camper which he lovingly built a few years ago.
I've always liked the 'brick' styling of the T25 - slab sided if you please Miggs spent a lot of time and effort planning out and building a bespoke camping interior so after some discussions involving watches and cash we've now just got to get it prepped up and mot'd so I can get cruising.
Miggs ended up building a Bus with simple cool styling taking in many influences of the VW and other custom scenes and with a very usable interior with a double rock and roll bed, fridge, hob, sink, 240v electrics, split charging leisure battery, petrol powered heater and lots of clever storage. It has seating for 5 with seat belts and DC Comics from 1990 (vans year) on the door panels. Oh and I forgot - a toilet
With an awning in tow I'll be hitting the coast as much as I can this year.
It was featured a couple of years back in Camper and Bus magazine and I've included the intro spread below which is worth a read (if you can) and kind of reiterates that this new toy was meant to be for me
A few pics - more to follow once I start cruising and......
No dogging jokes
