Volkswagen T5.1 LWB T30 TDI 2.0 litre
We are very sad to be selling our beloved ‘Rocket Van’ due to moving abroad. We converted her from an empty shell in 2020 and she’s given us fantastic adventures all over Europe from Ireland, to Norway and the Swiss Alps. It’s now time for her to make memories for someone else! Any questions please ask 🙂
