      Hi. Unfortunately my dad who run this page suddenly passed away in February, therefore, the van had to go back as it was in his name, they wouldn’t allow a family member to take over the remaining payments. We were trying to locate the vans auction to keep an eye on but had no luck. How much did it sell for? Hopefully, whoever has the van now will have many good memories as we did 😊 we are hoping to carry on the adventures and make our own videos.

      Hi. No, we completely understand that you can’t disclose the sale price. It was more curiosity than anything as if it was more than the outstanding finance amount, technically the company the finance was with would owe my mum the difference - but it is not the end of the world. The memories in the van would never be the same for us as they were with Dad, so in time we will probably look into a new one to make new memories in. Thank you
