Did you see the Viking fibreline that had been refurbished that was on ebay last week? It was not kidson-ified, but had a modern interior....bidding went to 4099 and it didn't meet the reserve to sell! I was gobsmacked!! Is that normal?????

Yes it is normal to be " gobsmacked " over this. But if you get such symptoms over trivial things, like a politician telling the truth then you might need to see a doctor. !! Very Happy Very Happy

If you think nearly £5,000 is a good price for a quickly made over caravan, what price should I ask for my Viking Fibreline fully restored and correct in every detail.
How many of these lovely vans are left in this condition and original.

Not many I would have thought.

We spent a lot of time painstakingly finding the correct materials to bring this to a better than original condition.

These themed vans are so quick and easy to tart up...but will they last the test of time.
