Sylvester was beautifully converted by his previous owner, Jon Shepherd, to a very high standard. He spent five years on the rental books with Quirky Campers, where he was always in high demand. Since owning him myself, I’ve chosen not to rent him out, but that option is there should you wish.
I bought Sylvester from Jon two years ago and am only selling due to relocating to Australia. In that time, I’ve had some unforgettable adventures. With on-board solar power and Propex gas heating, you can travel all year round and completely off-grid. Just last December I took him up to Scotland in –4°C, and he kept me perfectly warm and comfortable.
Being a Vauxhall Vivaro, Sylvester is a joy to drive and easy to park — he fits into a standard parking space just like a car, making both city trips and countryside escapes stress-free.
