Description
After an incredible journey from the Netherlands to India and from South Africa to Kenia, the time has unfortunately come to sell our beloved Troopy. This is the ultimate two-person overland camper, and since we now have two beautiful children with a third on the way, we need to look for a larger model for our next long trip! We would love to sell our vehicle to an enthusiast who will embark on wonderful new adventures. The vehicle is currently located in the Netherlands, I can help with transportation to the US. As its a 1996 model, it is eligible for registration in the US.
If you’re interested, send me a message and can I send you a bunch of extra photos via mail.
I look forward to hearing from you
