Hi all.
My partner and I are both in our sixties. We own a 30 year old VW T25 van ('Rosie') which keeps on going. Plus a VW Compass Navigator 310R. Both get used quite a lot. And at present we have a friend selling a VERY quirky looking 1991 Stimson Trailfinder (on preloved.com) based on a Renault 5 (Renault Extra) for under a grand.
Rosie climbs steeper hills at walking pace (1600 diesel) and has no power steering, so is hard work. But she earns her keep when shifting furniture and DIY materials around. Both vans will be on camp in the Forest of Dean for six weeks this summer as usual, with half a dozen assorted grandchildren onboard or in tents alongside.
