Ford TRANSIT 85 T280M FWD
A very difficult sell as this is a fantastic off-grid, converted, characterful campervan which I’ve had some really fantastic trips in and made amazing memories. I hope you will be able to do the same! However, I have not been out in it enough in the last year to keep it as a day-to-day only vehicle.
Bernadette (you might change the name!) was professionally converted in 2020 by Mr Campervan who are based in Kent, and features pretty white cladded walls, and wooden ceiling with spotlights. She is off-grid with a solar panel system but a hook-up should you need it. Despite not having windows, the sky lights let enough light in for the mornings. There is central heating via the gas cylinder so camping in colder temperatures is doable.
Happy to arrange viewings, please get in touch.

Converted by Mr Campervan professionally in 2020.
FYI on weight I do have it and it’s somewhere in the 2000kg mark and absolutely fine.
The coach converts into the bed. The table comes out and you insert legs, panels and lay the cushions to create the mattress. I hold these together with a thick mattress protector and sheet. It’s a cosy double.
Please note: Quirky Campers do not inspect the listings for accuracy or check campervans in person. We have asked sellers to provide evidence of certificates and paperwork however you MUST check yourself that the information provided is present and correct. You will need to exercise the normal due diligence when buying any vehicle.
Quirky loves this style means that Quirky Campers would potentially approve this vehicle for hiring. However, Quirky have not approved a Gas Safe certificate, a Weighbridge certificate, or the vehicle's electrics. Buyers must check these themselves. For some tips on what to look out for read this. If the listing has no Gas Safe certificate, no unladen weight and no electrical sign-off please proceed with caution!
