She really does fly. I have had her up to 107mph (satnav) and she still had plenty of revs to go. Also cruises nicely at 70mph at about 3000rpm. Much more economical than the 1600 at about 27mpg.

I have just last week put a new low mileage engine in. changed the clutch and gone right through the gearbox. This was due to a slight tap on the top end and the cincro being a bit noisy. I wanted it all to be spot on.

MOT just done.

 Free Historical Tax.

 Bodywork chassis solid rust free.

 Back of back seat comes off. place a mattress on top of back section and seat.

 Handling and ride is solid. corners well. very powerful. It is not like a 42 year old bus at all. Great to drive buzzing when you get out. On the motorway she feel good due to the wind jammer sucking it to the ground.  

I recently did a fantastic photo shoot with 'VW Camper Magazine' and the bus will be a feature item in the coming issue. I'm sure this will add a substantial amount of value to the BajaBus. Also bear in mind that she has never been entered into any shows. so she will be new on the circuit should you want to win some prizes.  

Any question. just give me a bell 07727222951.
