Hi Welcome to UKCS Its a great site and very helpful, good luck with your T25 sounds a good deal to me

Aly .

Thanks dartgirl

At present van is getting some attention at garage, needs new battery and some welding as well as a bit of rust removal, not bad for the year though '82 only paid £500 for her. 

Hope to be out in her in 2 weeks, going to Star Caravan Park in Alton, Staffs. 

Can't wait!

Our T25 has just gone through it's 24th M.O.T....and passed..... £45....the advisory sheet  just said......one of the rear brake pipes is very slightly corroided....and the front number plate has a slight crack in it...........last year it just needed a new nearside suspension ball joint..... fortunatly when i took it in the speedo was working..... it's a brand new cable ..but it only works when it feels like it.... welcome to the forum M8...and yes i also think you got a real good bargain there..... ENJOY !!!!!!!!

I agree, it sound like a fantastic deal.  We've had our 1983 T25 for 18 months, just passed its last MOT with no cost to us. We have spent a wee bit of money on it but nothing that we don't recuperate when holidaying for £6 a day on farm campsites!!!!  Keep an eye on the paint work though, if the seals start to show signs of rust you should get them seen to ASAP. Oh and get an awning - it makes all the difference in the world!

Happy camping

For £650 it is hard to see how you can go wrong!

Hope all goes well, and the awning advice sounds good.  I have not got one yet, but it is on my shopping list for the next couple of weeks. 

As said .....get a drive away awning....it is great for when you are away for a week...it's like stepping out of the bedroom ( campervan ) and down into your front room....

Thanks to all for replies

I have bought new awning from campershop.co.uk

Royal Traveller 11 for just £149 inc delivery

Really looking forward to next weekend to give it a try

Anyone know anything about fixings for awnings, this one is pole type?

eeeee! you lucky ducks

fancy falling on a t25 for £ 500 squid.

we have one and absolutely love, and cop for this!

the guy i bought it off has phoned me up and hinted he's willing to pay me another £2000 over what i bought it for, (3 years ago) because he misses it so much and has not been able to find one he likes...tee hee!

enjoy!
