From the owner:
The van is called Flo, which is the reverse of a number plate from Colorado we found in the van when we purchased her in October 2009. She was imported to the UK in October 2008 from Colorado but was in Duluth before that. The van vin plate and m plate codes say she is a 13 window samba.

Flo is a left hand drive, 13 window deluxe walk through microbus. She has approximately 62,900 miles on the clock and has a 1584cc engine. The engine was reconditioned by Volkswerkes’ of Taunton. She is tax exempt. Fitted with four new tyres and a new spare wheel.

The van has had her front brakes upgraded to disk brakes, she has had new shock absorbers, new brake cylinders, hoses etc. The air box has been overalled and has new perforated stainless steel filters. Many little extras including LED indicators and tail lights, bespoke grab handles and a vanity mirror fitted to the overhead air box to name a few. The chrome has been rechromed.

The upper colour of the van is Toyota White Crystal Shine and the lower is Aston Martin Viper Blue. The inside of the van has had a new headlining with insulation, and has been upholstered in modern durable fabric. The rear curtains are black out curtains. There is a Smev two burner and sink unit fitted with a whale pump operated tap. A full width rock n roll bed fitted.

All the door and window seals replaced and pop out-windows fitted. Split relay charger for leisure battery. New carburettor fitted. Electrics isolator fitted in a stainlesssteel box for extra security. Retro radio fitted in dash with two pioneer speakers.

There is a file full of receipts for parts, upgrades and services. We have spend approximately £16,000 on her.

The reason for sale is she is not being used as much as we feel she should be and she is too nice a van to be hiding away in a garage.

Flo was valued for insurance purposes by Just Kampers in May 2020 for £41,400
