First off, thank you to Petra for organising the ritual at the weekend – it was a lovely spot. After the ceremony one of the topics we dicsussed was VW Camper vans… and I said I’d post some links about where to buy good second hand Type 2’s (the bay window variety of van that most of us think of when we think of camper vans, manufactired between 1969 and 1979). Some of these sites also include “Splitties” which were made between 1956 and 1969 I think. These are older, cuter, and invariably more expensive:
Dubs4sale
Planet Campers
The Samba
VW Camper Crazy
Cool Campers
If you’re feeling particularly flush you can buy a brand new Type 2 freshly imported from South America where the production lines only closed down for good a few months ago:
And top top everything off, some services that might be of use once you’ve made your purchase:
For those people interested in LPG conversion, here’s a site that tells you all about it.
And here’s a searchable databse of station locations, and here’s a site where an atlas locating all stations can be purchased.
Happy browsing!
