Volkswagen VW T5 LWB 2015
THE VAN has been incredibly well looked after and driven carefully, with regular services from a VW specialist garage. Since I’ve owned it I have installed a brand new clutch and dual mass flywheel, timing belts, power steering, starter motor and it has just had new brakes and pads fitted to pass its MOT in June which it otherwise sailed through.
Mechanically sound, very reliable, runs beautifully, starts every time.
Model: T5 LWB

Full Service History
I am sadly parting ways with my beautiful van and would love it to go to an owner that will get as much enjoyment out of it as I have.
I bought this van in 2020 and have renovated it gradually since, new cabinetry and worktops fitted Dec 2023.
It was built for weekends away in the UK with the occasional trip to Europe. I have had some incredible times in it and I’m very sad to be letting it go. A change in circumstance, including a move to a city flat with no parking, means it’s not feasible to keep any more.
THE CONVERSION has been done to the highest standard. None of the standard mass produced kits, all bespoke and hand crafted cabinetry made from marine ply or beautiful solid walnut. The appliances are all top of the range and chosen for maximum enjoyment above cost-saving. A few itemised below…
Fridge: Indel Webasto Top-Loading Fridge 41L (RRP: £1500+) – No expense spared here. I wanted a fridge that lasted forever, very quiet and energy efficient and that could store large items (like litre bottles of wine!)
Water Tank: 57 Litre Wheel Arch Tank (massive capacity) – this would easily last for weeks for general washing. If you got a shower installed (I was going to) you would get a week of daily showers from one tank.
Diesel Heater: Installed by a professional connected to the fuel tank. This is very powerful, no cheap Japanese replicas.
Water Pump: Fiamma Aqua 8 Water Pump – 1.5 Bar, 12v, 10 Litre
Leisure Battery: 12v 180ah Leoch Adventurer Agm Leisure Battery
Hob: Prima Moja Stove (never used)
Insulation: Professionally insulated and sound deadened throughout using high quality materials bought from Kiravans.
Electrics: Installed and tested by professional electrician
Plumbing: Installed by a professional plumber
I also opted not to go for a pop-top roof as I often stay in cities so needed it to fit in multi-storey car parks etc. but one could easily be added at a later date, I have reflected this in the selling price.
The vehicle is based in Brighton / Hove and parked 40 mins from my house so viewings can be arranged with sufficient notice. Happy to arrange viewings via Zoom also.
Also happy to drive the van anywhere in the UK if needed.
Fixed bed in the back that has a section that slides in and out to convert into seating. The bed is slightly smaller than a double but easily sleeps 2.
PLEASE NOTE:
The buyer will need to have new cushions made, I have been using cushions from a friends boat which happen to fit perfectly so never got round to having these made.
