we have just come back from a brilliant 500 mile round trip to Yorkshire and Mr OJO pulled like a train all the way....up and down all the peaks ...here is a photo of us on the top of Moss just about to go down into Holme Firth (our camera says 2010 ...but it was last week . He sailed through the Mot a fortnight ago ....not even any advisory notes . We really LOVE this old van .........after owning a veedub bay for 15 yrs ...we now wish we had found OJO first ...as these old Commers are far nicer and have much more character , so it is very sad for us -but we realise that we need something alot faster to zip off to see family etc at weekends and OJO is much more of a classic cruiser ...if we were loaded and had a huge garage -there would be no question of parting with this lovely old bus - but there we go -thats life ...and we have been lucky to have had some great camping trips in him . We took some photos today and put them on flikr (Animal Jack)
We bought OJO last year and since then we have done LOTS of nice improvements - like new door and roof seals - bits of re-chroming - replacing(re-sealing & waterproofing windows ) Waxoyling throughout etc etc...loads of little interior improvements etc ...so we think 4000 is a very fair price for a lovely van in this condition -with a full mot....the first person to see OJO will drive him away...(as we did !)

(the link to the photos will be in the next posting.... Cheers A. )

Very sad to hear that you'll be selling it. What a lovely van it is !

I would be very surprised if there wouldn't be a long queue of interested buyers for it. Still, it is sad to hear that you have decided to part with it. [V]
 
Price seems fair, I know how you feel - Peggy is sold and sitting at the bottom of the garden awaiting collection at the weekend....

If I told you I was a pathological liar, would you believe me?

Hi ...just to say Mr OJO is now sold and in the care of a very nice guy from Carmarthenshire .....and he will probably be checking in on here very soon. We have told him what a friendly bunch you are...... :)))))

We really enjoyed the weekend in Abergavenny /Brecon this year ............and if you do it again - we may try and gatecrash in our old Moggyvan - just to say hello . ........if you wanted to go a bit further -Pembrokeshire would be a great place to have a rally - or the Gower (-bit closer ) Let us know if you ever need any area details etc...Cheers A & F
..and of course Lily !
