if i had 52k spare i'd buy a mint split screen camper and stick a porsche motor in it, spend 10k on my mk1, buy a trailer 4 it, and get a garage built next to my house and probably still have change!

Meh, you're all barking up the wrong horse.

This conversion under a T5 California is the best possible EPIC in the camper department:

can't remeber the price before but it looks like the same ad so can't see why they would put the price up if it hadnt sold.  Unless its a new post using the original pictures and someones trying to make a profit!
