I love old campers(but not VW's!!!)

Me and my mates had a fad of all getting campervans for a while, they all got VWs and I bought this....

A '77 Toyota Hiace Campervan, a Newlander conversion which must have been top of the range in its day, shower/toilet everything!!

1500cc, column change and an adventure everytime we used him, we called him Clampit as we rocked up to campsites looking like the Beverly Hillbillies!!

On the first day we drove down to Kent to buy him and then went to Anglesey for a stag do!!

He did 85MPH and 23 MPG!!

Had so many great times in him, but had to sell eventually!!


AN MX5 YOU DID REALISE YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO GET A CAMPER !!!!!! worlds gone mad! no only joking serious note love the camper honestly say ive never seen one of them before :unsure:

First trip in the commer.....Nottingham, dawlish, south devon, newquay, abergavenny, Nottingham. A couple of issues, Starter motor packed up, alternator worked its' way loose and over heating...all sorted now and if anything she over cools now lol, oh and a collapsed rear brake hose and dodgy rotor arm

Thanks for your help Bungle, Scurvy et al...special thanks to Laney and Vince

Many thanks to all of the mini drivers on the Silly Mini Run that DIDN'T stop to help when the starter motor packed up...(all of them behind us) whilst we was blocking everyone's exit, thats ok!!!!!!!....thanks to the two guys in the BMW that did get out and push us so all the minis could leave us and carry on with the run!!!
