The story of Margot the 1972 Bedford CF camper van and her novice owners (to be known as Tom and Barbara)

Waiting
It's a strange feeling to have bought something yet have nothing to show for it - other than some smelly cheese and a lovely, quirky book that I'd treated myself to, entitled 'My Cool Campervan' which is full of inspiring pictures to encourage me that we haven't just purchased a pile of junk. Our campervan has POTENTIAL. I had begun to discover a whole new world of 1970s retro websites and online shops selling vintage fabrics. Our campervan was going to be transformed to its former glory with groovy 70s curtains, the whole works! There was just the small matter of the campervan passing its MOT. In hindsight, not that likely considering it's 40 years old and hasn't been on the road for four years. Then things grew ominously quiet from the vendor's end of things as we began to attempt to unravel the minefield of tracking registration documents from long-dead previous owners.
