Another good example and a rare offset 2 door.

Yeah, I spotted this today as well.

I have a Castleton of 1986 vintage. Very well made and sorta cosy to stay in.

I have a 1981 Castleton which I am told by the owners club is a Roadsman GL. It has almost the exact same layout as the one advertised, the club's technical chap said he had only seen one previously it may this van he was talking about. I'm suprised it hasn't sold already.

I had a Roadsman. Lovely vans. I agree with late'70s - mine was a 1978.
The Roadsman is 13'6" - the one on eBay looks more like a 14'6" but I can't be sure.

Hi Alec

Can you remember the chassis number? My van is 2779.

No but I can find out. I sold it to a good friend who still has it.
It was a foot too long to fit on my drive, so I bought a 12'6" Royale for less than 6 months storage fees.
