How much did you pay for your bus?

Oi!!! I'll have you know Barnsley has just been valued at 55 bob and a bag of yorkshire mixture

 

Do you wanna buy a bag of Yorkshire mixture mister ?

 

Onl

only one bag ?

 

£1900 for mine in '07. Got tired of looking at shiny paint over filler and folk asking for silly money, so thought I may as well get one done proper. Then realised I should have waited for a good one

 

We're not made of money

 

Did anyone who bought their van off eBay keep the original listing? I've just found mine. It's a complete work of fiction. The bloke I bought it from (I later found) worked in Marketing. Silly me.

 

6k in march


First bay

2nd aircooled..

I think I stole it considering the condition of many I viewed for 3 or 4 k more

 

£4250 14 years ago, German import Westy, (basic not the full monty) and it still has never been welded, same engine, only new tyres (14 years ago)and new clutch / oil seal 8 years ago.

 

£1150 in 2004/5 off achap on volkszone. Wasn’t looking for one but saw the post and thought I’d have a look, just to see and it was a day out. Came home with a low loader booked

Knew it needed work so spent a couple or three years bare metalling it, cutting out rusty bits and having someone make it nicer.

 

£800 I bought rust bucket but at least was never bodged or tarted up no shiny paint just holes, that was about 4 years ago, I was wary of shiny paint

 

Before (from eBay ad). You can see the rot even from that distance (foolish me)...



And now. Think he looks a bit healthier...

 

$8500 including shipping, duty etc in 2015.

Bought it blind.

 

4K in 2014

2k in 2009 I think, a rusty wreck, but I must be 20k into it now!

 

Never add it up!

 

£2000 in July 1995

A month later I removed the interior prior to filling it
With Banknotes
Until I sold it in May this year

 

A cheaper alternative to buying a van is simply to stand on your driveway setting fire to £10 notes...

 

Only had £7k to spend and everyone i looked at was crap!

So bought one that was stood 26 years for £1600 although I'm probably in £10k now.
Worth every penny to us though
