    I'll pass that on mate. OK to give him your number?
     
  3. Been looking around for a Morris Minor, but decent ones cost more than a good Bay, its silly. Travellers with good woodwork fetch well over 10k. Saw a nice one for sale at the Senlac car show. it is a good one but they wanted 11.5k for it and they thought that was cheap.
     
  4. I like the way Morris minors do that fart sound between gear changes.
     
  5. I had one years ago and never let me down. They have a big following and lots of clubs. Dead easy to work on and I like the cool exhaust sound. I may just get a cheap one with mot for fun.

  8. The way I see it is that I save ££££s every year on a summer holiday abroad. Two of us for two weeks with flights, hotels etc used to be £2k plus.
    So every year I figure I save £2k and I've had the van for nearly five years so, bingo. It's now a free bus and anything I sell it for will be profit.

    I tend not to analyse that approach too deeply, mind...

    Blimey, I can remember when that sold for 30k and there was a lynch mob ready to hang him by the nuts for taking the proverbial. How times change.
    There doesn't seem to be a fixed price range at the mo, that I can see - some want realistic money for their buses and get it, some want stoopid money for their buses... and still get it. :eek:
     
  10. 10 grand for a low mileage well kitted T4 to go camping in, or the same for a good tinker mobile. New money controls the market.

    As my neighbour pointed out yesterday when we were chatting about his pending T5 conversion. A T6 out of the factory kitted for camping can cost nearly 90k. And I expect the electric one will top £100k.

    His T5 conversion goes..

    Buys a T5 with a bed." No dont need any more than a bed, we will use our tent and a cooker outside"
    Goes camping a few times...comes back this week..

    "Found this place in Devon ... they will be fitting a slide out cooker and sink, fridge , leisure battery and hookup":)
