After 16 years, 26 countries and 3 continents our beloved Matilda is up for sale. Located in the UK she just needs a cooker, bed, some tools, recovery kit and a new owner with imagination and she could set off for North Africa.
She is being sold with a ground tent (Oztent copy) rather than the rooftent seen in the picture above
I have listed a 'negotiating price' but, as this type of vehicle is so difficult to price, I am open to all reasonable offers.
This is a very well known and well travelled truck having visited the Arctic Circle, Sahara Desert and crossed the Bosphorus into Asia. She has comes with a whole host of spares and bits as well as 12 months MoT.

Ralph - If you don't sell her before the Adventure Overland Show (23-24 Sept 2017) at Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse, then obviously this event would be best place around to part company with what clearly has been a great companion.
This year there is an area entitled the OVERLAND ACCESSORIES BOOT SALE, which also includes vehicle sales. Could do worse!

Tom Thanks for that. I'm really hoping that she has gone by then. We're planning to arrive early and camp for several days, it would be a real pain to bring two vehicles, but I'll bare that in mind. Cheers Ralph

That's the good news, the bad news is I won't see her at Stratford.
