oh my god what an utter heap!

that ain't worth anything, infact looking at it I'd say that not one part of that shell is any use, plus the floor will be gone also despite the claim. Be cheaper just starting from scratch.

It's a split screen camper.

Do you know how much these are worth????

£4k is good going, even in that nick.

We had the Safari version of that when we lived in Kenya

Opening windcreens, long sunroof (me and my brothers stood with our heads out of the roof, more or less from Nairobi to Mombassa!

I know someone who's modifying a split van at the mo, which started off in a similar condition!

It's bizarre really, why would people pay so much money for something that can barely pull itself along, has evil handling, next to no brakes and no crash worthiness whatsoever? Fashion....
