"NELLIE" Van history
We have a box full of van history including her original operating manual etc. From the paperwork we believe
she spent most of her life in the Canary Islands, coming back to England in the mid-90s . We bought her in May 2004 and
have done a lot of the mechanical rennovations needed as you will see from the below. We are very sorry to see her go but
have to sell her to raise money for our wedding.
