Very excited to have tracked down where PeaSoup, my old T2, currently is. Is currently available for hire in France: https://www.vintage-camper.com/combi/peasoup/ Interestingly, most of the photos are mine that I gave to the person I sold it to!! Looks to have had a respray, but other than that looks the same. No idea what they did about the overheating engine though!
Good find it's a great continuation of the bus's story. Looks like they may have lengthened the throttle stop as it only does 90kph according to the ad! Who needs to go more than 55mph anyway haha
Yep - well remembered! No idea if still owned by him, or sold to this hire company. He was in Brittany though and that is where it is being hired out from.
It's nice they kept it's name, even though it probably doesn't immediately make sense in France. Looking good though.
@PeaSoup you should hire it for some family holidays could quite possibly work out cheaper than actually owning it..
@PeaSoup I'm guessing you put your old registration number into Google and looked at the images that came up. (Mostly pictures of boxing in your case BTW.) Somebody snapped me in Spain and a man from China included me in his holiday pics. Anybody else tried this?
Vintage Camper featured in the Connexion (English paper published in France) last month. Based in Bordeaux they have agencies around France including one in Brittany where PeaSoup is hired out. https://www.connexionfrance.com/Mag...slow-VW-camper-van-holidays-continues-to-grow
Never did, until a few minutes ago.. That's random a pic of us on the island of Aegina in the Gulf of Athens linked to The Curry Stall! Whatever that is!
No - I actually found it from googling "peasoup campervan"!! Didn't know you could do that with a reg number - will give it a go
just did mine - came up with a pic taken by some random photographer at an event at Bicester heritage back in 2018. nice pic

Mine comes up on Google on some lesser known image hosting site with some random poster commenting that it must be a "$75k restoration minimum", it's not worth that and thank goodness I didn't pay that for it All I see is the bent bumper step on the image, I think for $75k, well...you would think if someone had spent that much money that wouldn't be there
Found mine a couple of times which had then been copied to another bunch of car perverts websites along with it's approximate location and brainless comments like "looks original" and "some owners have cherished these from new". I think these posters should be castrated to remind them to mind their own business. Yours faithfully, Mr Grumpy.
