1993 VW Autosleeper SOLD

[strada100]

1993 Volkswagen T4 Autosleeper Trident High top campervan

Old school 2.4 diesel engine.     200K.     Basic service and MOT pass 2-3 months ago.

Owned by a family friend a good number of years now, its starting to require some TLC. I advised to sell last year when campervan prices went up, but they couldn't part with it, so here we are now.   They have no internet access, I offered to post on this forum, the only other place its advertised is the window of their local newsagents.

Unfortunately its showing its age in places, needs a refresh inside, rust showing outside etc. 

They don't have a digital camera, neither can I travel to it over in lockdown (crosses region). Fingers crossed for an easing of rules soon enough, if anyone wants more info and photos please get in touch and I shall oblige when I can. Its known as a Trident, an Autosleeper conversion that was popular throughout the 90s and early 00s. It has the traditional layout with a rock and roll bed and kitchen down the side. High top with a ladder on the back and a useful towbar. 

If anyones interested and can bear with me, please PM and I will send info and pictures as and when.   

£5k was suggested, whether thats reasonable or not I have no clue.   Reasonable offers accepted.

I googled the terms VW Autosleeper Trident Campervan and found some pics to give interested minds an idea what is for offer here (basically something like this, maybe a different color?):

Hi Braaap, thank you for doing that, I did think of it but didnt want to get anyones hopes up, its similar to the one in the picture, but a lot more scruffy! Its the same van though deep down, so that will definitely help anyone who may be interested - thank you!

ere’s some more pictures, looking through the paperwork the vans MOTd til the very end of September 2021 and has had a cambelt change completed on it just last week. The mileage is 209,500 (25/02/2021 - may go up but only very slightly) it was a daily driver until early January of this year and is all the better for it. It’s the 2.4 litre 5cyl Diesel engine, so the best one to have, and still runs sweet. FSH to 160k roughly which was all VW to 100k. 2 keys. The gas and cooker don’t work, nor does the fridge as these were taken out for some tricky welding work around MOT time and not re-enstated, the seal around the sliding door is also deteriorating in places but still useable. That’s most of the negatives out the way, still needs some TLC in places but would be a good base to make a really nice example. I have the details of a graphics company who can supply the autosleeper stripe if anyone wanted to make it back to original, but quite like the more stealth look’ as it is. Will be a great campervan for the upcoming summer. Going rate seems to be a fair amount higher and if I advertise elsewhere the asking price will be more but happy to honour RR price. There is a full thick file which neatly contains all past MOTs, invoices, bills, autosleeper instructions, wiring diagrams, owners manual and so on that I will look out.
