Poppy – 1971 Volkswagen T2 early baywindow campervan

Poppy is available for Camping & Weddings

For hire is our own family owned early T2 bay-window campervan, She is our pride and joy and is loved by our 2 children who love going on trips with her, and we hope that you can enjoy her too!!!

So be the envy of the festival, campsite or open road with Poppy, the coolest camper around. This Sexy lady is a original Danbury conversion, Poppy boasts a full size double rock and roll bed 'downstairs' but also if you raise the pop up roof she has enough room for you to stand up inside with out the need to crouch down.

She seats 4 people, but she has 1 large bed, that can sleep 2x grown adults and maybe 1x small child(we have done this with our 6 year old) But also benefits a over cab child bunk bed (request this if your bringing a child) this can take up to 7 stone in weight and can be put up in minutes.

She has been updated with disc brakes at the front and slightly lowered for better ride quality along with a set of new shiny wheels, she has also just been fitted with a new engine from a Subaru Impreza to give it more reliability(been through 3x Aircooled VW engines) not only this but also she now benefits with better MPG, and unlike the original engine, she has enough power to get up most hills and pass slower moving vehicle which now makes it a much more enjoyable drive and also doesn't cost a arm and a leg in petrol like the standard VW engine!!

She also has a front roof rack, I can supply a cargo net with hooks and bungee cords if you would like to put anything on top of the roof rack

If you are looking for a retro campervan that gets plenty of attention wherever you go this might just be for you, but be prepared to be stopped everywhere and asked for photos etc, and petrol stops can take a bit longer as everyone wants to ask you about the van, and don't forget to wave back at everyone who gives you the thumbs up from passers by.

​A split charge relay will maintain the battery power level when the vehicle engine is running and the 110amp capacity will power the electrical sockets if you want to bring anything to plug in (12v kettle etc) she has a hook up for those campsites too.

​A fire extinguisher is fitted in the cab for added safety and a first aid kit is supplied, She also has a fire suppression unit fitted in the engine bay for added peace of mind.

​Curtains are fitted on all windows to aid privacy during the hours of darkness and front screen cover blind are also provided.

She also benefits from a diesel heater so will keep you warm on those cold nights!!
