Just spotted The Beast on the popular auction site. Now that's a cool camper van.

Would love one.

Didn't Cliff get something like this?

Not sure what the MPG is like though.

I fear it may border on GPM, but the boss has stated quite clearly that a purchase like that would be grounds for a divorce so I think that's another bonus point (only kidding)

Yep I'd like that , I could drive through the mother in laws house and park up on her Britain in bloom garden , that should cheer me up . Other than that I joined the AA today and have a chance of winning a vw camper .

I reckon 7-11 mpg would be a generous guess

phhwwwoooaaarrr!!!! Urals are absolute BEASTS, fabulous off road and bullet proof. Probably literally Theres a lot of videos of them truck trialling, they were very competitive a few years back, not been following the eurotrials recently though...

Cliff was into his merc g wagons, I didn't realise he'd played with big toys too!

As he says in the Q&A, if you're worried about running costs, its probably not the vehicle for you and that it'd be cheaper running it on vodka

I'm thinking less. My regular sized pick-up only gets 13-15 (US gallons though, so about 25% more on an emperial gallon )
