Detailed Information
Vehicle Description

My little side kick ‘Road trip Ronnie’ is reluctantly up for sale. It is time for him to find a new adventure family after spending the last 2 years with me. I’ve taken him on many weekends to the Peak District, Lake District and have done 2 month long EU road trips where he ran like a dream every single day. A completely honest sale- I want to see someone else make lots of memories with my lovely lad.

Ronnie is an ex-council owned van, partially converted by his previous owner over lockdown. I have had him since Feb 2022 and finished the conversion myself in summer 2022. Considering his is a 1.8 diesel, he is quite economical! I can usually get between 425-500 miles out of a full tank which usually costs me between £65-75.

Ronnie comes with buckets of service history and receipts from recent age related repairs including power steering, brake discs and brake vacuum pump repairs.

What the sale comes with-
-My gorgeous van, converted to a high standard with a slide out kitchen, cupboard storage and slide out bed. Van is insulated with recycled plastic insulation and is sound deadened.
-Drive away awning worth £300 (was put up once in France for 3 nights, and has since been stored in the garage)
-Portable pack away solar panel
-Electric power bank box (charges from 12V socket as you drive) Worth £400 alone.
-2 hob camping cooker
-Chemical toilet with chemical fluid
-6kg gas (has been used on last 2 trips but plenty left)
-Windscreen covers to keep out light while you sleep
-European driving kit
-Pop up window
– A reversing camera (which recently has been slow to load but eventually catches up once been on a while!)

The honesty section- read carefully.
As Ronnie is 15 years old, he’s not perfect. His bodywork is tired in places, as expected for an old boy. Unfortunately, due to him being a ford, the inevitable rust has started (a very small patch on the passenger side sill) I have looked into getting a piece welded and was quoted £200 for this, I just never got round to getting it done. This has been factored in to the asking price.
The drivers side bumper corner needs replacing due to it getting cracked. (I have the part, just haven’t got round to faffing with it yet).

The last MOT had an advisory regarding the front 2 tyres. These have not yet been replaced but will need to be before the next MOT in May 2026

The van and all added extras will be sold as seen.
I am able to accommodate serious enquiries only. No tyre kickers either please!
