I’m selling my beloved Reggie as I’m relocating abroad and can’t take her with me!! She’s been a labour of love, refitting her in my signature style to become my home. I lived in her for two years on a farm and it’s been a wonderfully cosy, semi off grid time!
She has a large folder of history, including a diary which was started in 1992 by her first owners, of all her adventures! Because I’ve lived in her, I’ve not needed to get her MOT’d, but she’s booked in for an MOT and service mid-March, so will be sold ready to tax and drive away!
All handbooks and original bill of sale included.
I’ve modified her to have a fixed king-sized bed in the back (Tempur Cooltouch Original Elite 25 K Mattress included – worth £1700!!!) with fixed rattan headboard. But you could revert it back to a u-shaped seating area if you wanted. There’s also a bed for two over the cab, and space for one to sleep in the living area. Which has an L-shaped seating area and small adjustable height coffee table and bioethanol burner.
There’s onboard fresh water and waste water tanks, and a new electric water heater. Shower and bathroom with cassette toilet with side locker access. Two 12v leisure batteries with solar panel roof charger and 240v mains hook up. The water pump is 12v, so you have cold water if going off-grid.
New gas oven, grill and hobs with externally accessed locker for gas bottle. New electric fridge/freezer. New handmade solid wood kitchen which I stained black, solid oak worktop, that flips up and extends, butler sink and taps. The kitchen has 4 drawers, and a deep pan drawer above the oven. There’s even a little wine rack! There is a shower tap that swivels to go out of the window, so you can have a cool spritz outside in the summer!
There’s dimmable led-lighting in the kitchen, 12v spotlights throughout the camper and bathroom. And additional lighting (for reading) in the bedroom.
There’s an expansive fiamma awning that spans the the full length of her 5m body, that comes complete with all the sides and ground sheets. This gives you extra room for sitting, BBQ’s and additional sleeping space if you wish.
She has a new skylight in the bathroom that can be opened for air flow, made with clear glass so it’s flooded with natural light. There are also two bespoke triple glazed skylights in the main camper, which mean it’s gloriously light in the day, and at night you can look up and stargaze!
I’ve installed a slatted divide to close off the front cab, to make the camper more homely and private! There’s storage under the L-shaped sofa and plenty of shelving. Plus lots of cupboards around the bed area. There is also a small wardrobe, where I’ve also housed the microwave. I removed the horrible old gas heater, and used the space to fit in some drawers, and a small bin on wheels!
The door is a stable door, so you open up the top half, and keep the bottom part securely locked (great if you have a dog or small kiddies!) All the main windows slide open, and have made to measure wooden slatted blinds.
There are external lockable locker doors that give you access to the under bed storage.
The seating area comes with all the lovely cushions, and bioethanol burner. Which means you get a lovely open fire, without the smoke and faff of carting around wood. It heats the camper up really well.
There’s a tow bar and galvanised Algo chassis. She has a private plate, which will remain with her for the right price. HFL stands for “holidays for life”!!!
There are two small rust spots to her exterior around the windscreen, which I’ve shown in two photos.
There’s a great little fixed ladder on the back, which takes you up to her large roof area, which is great place to sit in the summer for wonderful views and sunbathing!
Viewing is by appointment only, from 10th March.
I will happily listen to sensible offers, but feel I’ve priced her reasonably considering how beautiful and unique she is on the inside, and the fact that she’s the retro Kon Tiki model everyone wants.
***I’ve taken a video, but it’s too long to add to the listing, so please get in touch and I’ll send it in a message!***
Reggie is for collection and viewing in Barton BH25.
Thanks for looking, Bobs : )
