  1. I wasn't quite sure which area of the forum to put this so please move accordingly if need be. I thought it would be a good idea to advertise it on here as it will be very useful for many people.

    FOR SALE


    VW Transporter T4 2.4D LWB 1995

    I bought this T4 in February of this year. The previous owner (A family friend) carried out a lot of work including fitting a replacement engine and having the van repainted. The van is in excellent condition for its age and is fitted with a few sought after parts.

    The van is very clean and tidy inside which is a bonus when using it every day. This is not your typical builders/contractors vehicle as it has been very well looked after.

    I personally bought the van to carry motorbikes to track days and although I have only done this once, it easily managed the job fitting 2 bikes and all the tools/gear in the back.

    The van has covered 209k miles but shows no sign of this, especially with the replacement engine. I have covered around 2k miles since February and with no issues at all including a 600 mile trip around Wales.

    The van is very versatile as the rear seats can be easily removed, so it can be used a panel van as well as a Caravelle. Due to the side windows and rear forward facing seats there are no issues with going to the local recycling centre as it is not a commercial vehicle. The van can also be legally insured as a Caravelle which is much cheaper than commercial van insurance.

    • The floor has been fitted with hard rubber based flooring which is easily cleaned.

    Recent work includes

    • Replacement engine was fitted in 2014 (engine with only 90k miles and new cambelt).
    • The bodywork has been repainted in the original colour.
    • Service - Sunset VW – 02/02/2015 - Both auxiliary belts replaced, new starter motor fitted, Handbrake adjusted and Undersealed.
    • Service – Sunset VW – 02/04/2015 - Oil & Filter, Air filter and Auxiliary belts tightened.
    • Two new rear tyres (June 2015).
    • New pedal rubbers.
    • New Gear Knob.
    • New wheel Centre Caps.
    There is one small patch of rust on the nearside sill. It has been protected with wax oil and isn’t getting any worse.

    Overall this is a great van in lovely condition and ready to be used as a day van, surf van, camper, track day van or panel van. It’s used as my daily transport and it performs very well. I also have a large box of spare parts and two workshop manuals which are included in the sale.

    MOT until September 2015. Whilst it was on the ramp during its last service, a full inspection was carried out. The only discovery being slightly perished track rod end rubber boots. The track rod ends have no play in them at all.

    Genuine reason for a reluctant sale. There aren’t many LWB T4’s still around in this condition.

    Private Registration not included in the sale.

    Any questions please call me on 07731435063. I will not respond to offers if you haven’t viewed the van.

    Van is located in Derby.

    Cash or Bank Transfer on collection.

    £3950
