Van looked over by my mechanic in early May before I took her to Wales and was confirmed engine was in great working condition and body work was sound and all round a solid van.
Full folder of previous work carried out on van with previous owners back to 2013.
Big blue is a true one of a kind! Beautifully crafted inside and well maintained through out she adds some quirky luxury to camping!
I purchased this van from her last owner in 2020 with the hopes of taking her around Europe – unfortunately COVID lockdown suspended this dream for the time being. However I have taken her on some fantastic trips though the UK in this time when allowed. My main reason for (reluctantly selling) is I am planning on moving house and need a bigger house deposit. So with a heavy heart I am putting big blue back on the market.
Big blue was converted inside by her previous owner and I have made some design changes while I have owned her to really make her personality shine! This lovely camper boasts:
– A fixed bed with extender
– Running water pump with 30-40L capacity
– A gas dometic 3 ring hob burner
– A sizeable fridge with a freezer compartment
– An effective diesel heater
– LED lighting throughout and an over head light over the bed.
– Fully lined and insulated blackout curtains
– Fully insulated behind panelling to ensure a cosy sleep in winters
– A small vent to reduce condensation build up and to provide a nice breeze in hotter months
– 2 solar panels on the roof allowing this vehicle to manage 3-4 days wild camping off grid!
– An accessible cab from the back of the van (a real security boost for a solo female traveller like myself)
– Considerable storage for the size of the van, both in the main part of the van and in the boot.
– A tow bar
– A retractable awning (perfect for those sunny days or rainy evenings!)
– A large stainless steel sink
– Carbon monoxide detector and fire blanket
– USB charging ports
– Radio bluetooth device to connect music from your phone to the speakers (bringing blue into the 21st century!)
– Leather driving VW seats in front for superior driving comfort.
*Can come with camping equipment (e.g cooking essentials, chairs etc) if wanted!
This van is perfect for solo travellers or a couple! I have loved every minute of my trips in blue and she has never let me down. She is a sturdy build and in no way shows her age. If your looking for adventure, blue will help make your travel dreams come true.

Big blue has a small double fixed bed which can be extended to create a more spacious sleeping area. The mattress is memory foam with a 5cm memory foam topper also to add extra comfort. The van can be sold with memory foam extender (£70 value).

I have travelled in this van with my sister and her medium sized dog and found the bed perfectly spacious when extended. When travelling alone the unextended version works well for a single traveller!
