Enjoy —— but don’t hand over any money until you’ve seen it, and the paperwork, in person. Looks genuine but many a scam about.
Its there in the link above. Well done duffs I admire your strength. Way to go girl!

Please give it a thorough inspection before parting with any money.
It's got an 'interesting' mot history and has hardly been driven since 2013.
Really hope it works out for you!

Ok had a few lovely chats with the owners of the van, very genuine people.
He's delivering it to me as he has to be in Cambridge on Sat, it's been valeted and all ready for my first trips.
It's been booked in for a habitation check, I'd like a pull out awning, quite expensive new, so looking at 2nd hand ones, also a reversing camera.
My kitbox from our caravan is all sorted and ready to put in the camper too, then off to a local site to try everything out.

Smiley face Transit, Ive had a few of those in my time. Absolutely bullet proof engines, even if the cam belt goes and smashes all the rods, it’s a quick head off, drop new rods in and away you go. If only they were still that simple these days.

Great, well done. Believe it or not, most genuine MH ers are genuine people and it sounds like you have found one.
Same engine we had in our ldv, that I commented on in another thread,Smiley face Transit,

Looks well cared for,many happy miles and smiles.

Update, habitation check all done, everything works, just needed something doing in the water heater.
And what's more important I now know how stuff works, just got to remember it all.
Drove it fir awhile, really like it, obviously bit noisier than the Navara, but lovely big windows to look out of

Well done, a lovely clean looking van inside and out.
extra carpet in the cab can make a lot of difference
It's got the original blue carpet, and a beige one in a funny shape, doesn't fit, and a foot carpet drives side, I'll maybe look for a better fit loose one then , cheers x
dont forget under the front seats as well my bessacar had nothing over the painted metal, have added a couple of layers of underfelt which along with extra carpets at the front makes listening to the radio a lot better
