@betsibachofbeyond: Vanlife is all fun and games until you buy an old banger and it costs so much to fix. As long as it stays under £700 I’ll be happy!! #microcamper #vanlife #vanlifeuk #tinyvan
My van cost me £4200 and have spent well over £5k in 2yrs just getting it trough it’s MOT and repairs. It’s not even a camper either! They are great but are a pain in the ar..

I had a Mazda bongo. Needed welding every year , over £400 yo get it through the MOT. I got rid of it. Just no point. There comes a point where you have to let it go. I got £9000 for it!!

Know the feeling the campervans are brilliant when working but because when you have old ones like mine aswell they are money pits
However it is worth it wouldn't be without ours even though it has cost us a couple of grand this year on different issues

Don’t let it get you down vans always cost money got a Vw t5 always doing something to it! When you get up and running definitely go to Ynys Môn its beautiful try the east of the island such as treath goch, Beaumaris, Cemaes bae totally recommend the Gadlys for something to eat or the Y Coron in bodedern 🏴🏴

Not good campers; they cost so much to keep on the road. I was going to Anglesey, but I've been hanging about in the rain at Criceth and Black Rock Sands. Just waiting for a mate now at Cwormin Falls, Balneau Ffestiong. Hope you are back on the F-ing road soon.
