Vic – Retro VW T25 Westfalia Club Joker 4 berth campervan - 1980's poptop

COVID UPDATE TO CUSTOMERS: WE ARE STILL OPEN AND PROVIDING HIRES, USING SOCIAL DISTANCING TECHNIQUES TO OFFER HIRES.

Please read the description carefully before booking.

In the 1980s, the 'Westy' was the most sought after VW camper on the market - these buses still have a very strong following to this day.

At the time of building, Westfalia was the only officially recognised VW campervan conversion company meaning the interior is second to none - it’s high specification still rivals modern conversions. These campers offer a great balance between classic looks and modern practicality for those customers who are after the retro look and feel. Standard features are:

Hark back to a bygone era of bold lines, styles and colours, before wind tunnels and when synth music was uber cool. In the 1980s, a VW T25 Westfalia was THE van to have.

It’s important to note that while all our T25’s are well preserved and are very well looked mechanically, these are historic vehicles – they’re not brand new, not refurbished from shell upwards (they’re just honest well-preserved examples) and nor do they drive like a modern car. T25s are generally reliable and lots of fun most of the time but for those customers who want refinement and need cast iron dependability (particularly if covering larger distances), we'd suggest opting for one of our brilliant VW T5s.

But if you’re happy to take the slow lane, enjoy the retro feel, up for more of a driving challenge and can bear the odd imperfection you have to expect from a 30+-year-old vehicle, the T25 remains a great option with oodles of personality (and you’ll be part of a special club where everyone waves and stops to speak to you)!

Detailed specification:
* 2 hob gas stove
* 3-way fridge (runs of gas, battery or mains hookup)

Other stuff you should be aware of:
- Vic is an old van with significant signs of use. That's why he is priced cheap. Expect signs of age consistent with a 30+ year old van with nearly 500k miles. It all works, but if it's important to you to have a spotless interior or exterior, a drive that's totally like new, etc, you should probably consider spending the little extra for a younger van!
- like all campervans, motorhomes and caravans, the 240v domestic sockets will only work when the van is "hooked up" to mains supply at the campsite.
- Naturally having booked this vehicle via a third party platform, you will have to pay their fees. This will result in a higher overall price than booking directly with us.
- Our own terms and conditions (available on the London Campers website) will take precedence over Goboony terms and conditions wherever a difference exists.
