Hi All,

It is with a heavy heart that I must sell Bolly. She's taken us on some amazing camping trips around the south west and through France. Unfortunately the family is expanding and we need more space so it is time for a van.

I know you all love pictures so here is a gallery: https://photos.app.goo.gl/voSHMF2yvnkWLPxF8

whoa, whoa whoa. whats happening here? the 80 is a seven seater. how bigs the family? surely theres better options than a van?

Sometimes you just have to go in a different direction. It sounds like a Cruiser with a lot going for it at a keen price. Good luck with the sale.

Thanks guys.

Hdj81 is a 5 seater but that's not the problem, we were pretty packed with 2 of us and all the toys so with baby stuff too it's a bit much. The real clincher was not being able to sit up in bed to feed at night. It's a shame but as Andy says, sometimes you just have to go in a different direction. I'd love to keep her but just don't have the storage and don't want her rotting away outside when someone else can love her.
