Showing just 77,621 miles; V5C shows only six
former keepers; a true piece of 1970s camper-van history
First registered in February 1971,
this charming Ford Transit Camper is correctly recorded on the V5C as a
Motorcaravan and benefits from Historic Vehicle status.
The V5C also
shows only six former keepers, a pleasingly low number for a 1970s camper. It is
now showing just 77,621 miles, a very modest figure for a vehicle of this age
and type.
Remarkably, the last MOT expired in 2021, and the camper has
covered only one mile since, suggesting it has spent recent years in gentle
storage rather than active use.
The vendor notes that in May 2016, the camper
received new rear tyres, while in October 2020, the front nearside tyre was
replaced. These small but important maintenance details help paint a picture of
steady, careful ownership. As a survivor from the early days of Britain’s
camper-van culture, it represents a
wonderfully nostalgic slice of 1970s leisure motoring.
With its classic Transit profile,
period fittings and honest presentation, this camper offers a delightful
opportunity either for sympathetic recommissioning or as a characterful display
piece. A true piece of 1970s camper-van history, ready for its next
chapter.
