[WTB-ACT] Tidy microbus deluxe NOT camper FOUND ONE
sprinter - July 16th, 2008 at 11:58 AM

Hi all,

I'm new to the forum but have been reading heaps and watching the For Sale threads keenly. I'm after a nice and tidy microbus that I can use as a daily driver around Canberra. I'm happy to travel to get it, but it MUST have rego so I can drive it home.

I'd ideally like a lowlight, but not too fussed. It just has to be clean (ie: little or no rust), as original as possible and of course mechanically sound. Also rear seatbelts and child restraint mounts would be a bonus. Hope I'm not sounding too picky!

So if anyone as any leads feel free to contact me. (not sure PM works until I have posted more... so I can be reached on 02 6277 8846)

Oh yeah - cashed up and ready to go! Also will be selling my 1999 Kia Sportage once I have the bus, if that helps anyone.

Cheers,

Scott

What kind of Microbus are you after. T1, T2, T3. I'm not to sure if they called them Microbusses for the T4, T5.:?:

Why not look at the Quad Cam T3 Caravelle for sale on this page. Looks very nice. There is also another cheaper Caravelle for sale as well.

Thanks mate - no I'm actually after a bay microbus rather than a caravelle.

Hey Scott,
When you want a van that is nice to drive, come and see me!!!
I have a caravelle on Ebay at the moment, for about 1/2 the price of a good Bay.

Hi Dave,

Yes thanks mate - I know you have tried telling me the benefits of a caravelle before. Guess I'm just going to have to learn the hard way!

It has come up really nice with a detail etc. Getting a few bids too - best of luck mate! Keep your eyes peeled for me. BTW that bling bling P series that won autoitalia thia year is for sale. Antoine has spent a motza on it... http://cgi.ebay.com.au/VESPA-PX200-SCOOTER-PRIZE-WINNER-IMMACULATE_W0QQitemZ1...

71 microbus deluxe. Getting rust cut out of front now (passed Victorian RWC like it so a bit peeved) so should be on road in another week or so. Very original and tidy inside. New paint in original colour so pretty happy. Drove back from Tullamarine to Canberra without a hitch - cool.
