This pretty and highly original 1970 Volkswagen Camper T2 is presented in elegant blue with a beautiful contrast burgundy leather interior. The vendor says it has previously been used as a wedding car – both for their wedding and for weddings with the previous owner. It has the original 1600cc engine which is described as being in good working order – indeed, it helped the previous owner travel all around Europe. Boasting many original features, the well-maintained interior has new carpet and curtains, while the leather seat upholstery is also fresh. The rear seats fold down into a double bed, adds the vendor, while the entire interior has been well maintained. ‘TTU446H’ has an odometer reading 61,178 miles and this left-hand drive UK-registered model is described as being in ‘good’ condition throughout.

The Volkswagen Type 2 was introduced way back in 1950. It was an original forward control cargo and passenger van, which was carefully honed over the years – it remained in production until 1975. There were multiple commercial variants, plus the iconic camper models like this vehicle. An entire community has built up around the Volkswagen Type 2 and its related models, and the scene today is thriving – meaning buying one is a passport into a fun world of enthusiastic motoring.

In summary:

  • Stylish 1970 Volkswagen Camper
  • Elegant blue with contrast burgundy interior
  • Original engine described as being in good working order
