Classic Mercedes 207d Compass Clipper 5 berth

Mercedes-Benz 207d Motorhome. 4 gear manual transmission. 5 berth, although the small single bed under the cab is only really good for a small person or child. Her bodywork has rust patches, but I have been told that she is not bad at all and most are easily fixed; her underside is great, it is mainly on her wheel arches that she could do with a little repair. She is 42, so although she may look tired on the outside, she has the heart of a lion. She is now a classic, so does not need an MOT although she was MOT’ed up to last year and happy to get a new one done for a genuine buyer.

I have owned her 8 years and there is a knack to starting her, which once you know, you know! Upside is you can’t easily steal her – she cannot be towed unless putting her on a low loader!

She sprung a leak and I’ve spent good money getting her water tight again with a new rubber roof. As a result two of the sky lights are now sealed to make sure she stays that way. There is a stain around the sky light as a result that needs painting, but I am not trying to hide the fact she leaked a few years back, as it is clear she is now dry as toast and NO smell of mold. Her ceiling internally could do with painting and making good in places – I have replaced much of the old fiberglass insulation and replaced it with polystyrene but there are bits that still need doing.

She is no race horse, but a work horse. Her top speed is 55, going downhill with a tail wind…. but she will just keep going and get you home.

The beauty of this van is her size. She is vast inside with a proper shower space and two double beds. The bed above the cab is low rise but spaciously wide and my grand kids love it up there!

She still has all her original seats – retro now! They are only this clean as they have been sealed in wrap since I had her; I have always had a proper mattress down at the back and used that area as a fixed bed. She is big enough to do that and still have the small front table to eat at.

During lock down I completely rewired the 12v and all the wiring is sound and properly fused. She has a solar panel on the roof that is more than enough for festival life; phone and lights off grid without a problem. She has had lots of upgrades and benefits from hot water, and a great electric shower! Do check the list of what she comes with to see she is great value.

I have had many a happy trip/festival and covered plenty of miles in her. I have made some fantastic memories in her too. I will miss her. But ill health means my husband cannot use her anymore and as a solo camper she is too big for me; this is a reluctant sale.I really want her to go to someone who is an enthusiast, who wants to put some effort into getting to know her quirks, and will love her as much as I do.
