We had one of these!! They are fantastic vans. Ours was called the Clownwagon…..our children had expected a cool Vdub-type camper- but we turned up with one of these….”you’ve bought a Clownwagon”….they didn’t complain when we went down to Cornwall almost every weekend in the summer holidays though! Driving it was a bit like cycling- speed up on the downhills, crawl up the hills😂. So lovely to see you keeping it going. ❤

I loved my road trip in The Doctor, but have now sold her. I'm currently looking for my new van to then set off on a 1 / 2 year European trip. Hopefully new videos starting in October so stay tuned. PS: definitely want something that has little more get up and go for hills! ;)

Mines a 1993 Talbot Symphony. Like your top windows, mine are slider ones. Mine's in good nick too and luckily I'm married to an old school mechanic for when things may go wrong! Your layout is completely different to mine. Shows how many layouts they can get out of such a tiny space. You have a nice clean looking van. You've inspired me to do my van tour if the rain ever goes away. I've had it 16 months and not done one yet.

Hey Oliver. Glad you liked the videos. I've actually now sold The Doctor and she's back in the UK. Already looking for my next van which will be bigger like yours so actually a motorhome. I definitely want more space for Koa, a permanent bed and ideally a separate shower 🙏🏼 I'll start some more videos probably around September time as that's hopefully when I'll be hitting the road again. Having said that once I actually view some vans I'll 💯 document it. Enjoy your travels. Rich & Koa.

Great video and van, be interesting to see how a 30 year old camper makes it back to the UK, especially as I'm thinking of buying one. A dealer near me was selling an Autosleeper Talbot Express similar to yours a few months ago for £3995 but then changed it to £4995 a few weeks later. The MOT has now ran out and it's still on sale for that price, so he obviously feels justified. But like your's it's in good shape bodywise, so I'll keep following and good luck. 👍
@CampervanCasa9 ай бұрын
We made it back to the UK no problem at all and she sailed through the MOT so another year on her now 😌 Mine is a Talbot Express Sienna so a rare model. She is fully kitted out and awesome for going off grid as she is totally self sufficient. Hob, grill, oven, hot water, heating, fridge, shower room / WC all the mod cons 😉 When we get home at the end of January I'll actually be selling her as i need something a little bigger now that Koa has grown up.
