Some Eurovan Campers stand out because of their condition. Others stand out because of their upgrades. This one stands out because it has both.

The highlight of this 1997 Eurovan Camper is its professionally installed Colorado Camper Vans electric poptop conversion, a feature that would cost over $20,000 to replicate today!  Unlike the original Eurovan tops that can be difficult to lift and often develop cracks, leaks, or cosmetic issues with age, this modern electric top raises and lowers effortlessly with the push of a button using a remote control.

For many owners, especially those who are shorter in stature or no longer want to wrestle with a heavy poptop, this upgrade completely transforms the camping experience.

Just as impressive is the extensive mechanical work that has recently been completed. The VR6 engine was professionally rebuilt and includes:

• New timing chains

• New cylinder head

• New pistons and rings

• New connecting rods

• New crankshaft

• New bearings throughout

• New camshaft

• New timing guides and gears

• New thermostat housing

The suspension has also been thoroughly refreshed with new ball joints, tie rods, and mounts. The van rides on upgraded Bilstein shocks and a lift kit paired with attractive 16-inch wheels, giving it improved stance, handling, and ground clearance.

Additional upgrades include:

• Recaro leather front seats

• Fiamma F45S awning

• Vitifrigo low-voltage refrigerator with side shelving

• Tectonics stainless steel exhaust system

• Bluetooth stereo

• Metal lockbox/safe with integrated cupholders

• Lloyd all-weather floor mats

• Rear seat organizer

This camper has clearly been cherished by both its first and second owners and presents exceptionally well inside and out. It is clean, well-maintained, and ready for its next adventure.

Our VW Master Technician recently completed a comprehensive inspection and noted:

• No fluid leaks present

• Air conditioning operating properly

• All lighting and electrical systems functioning correctly

• All camper systems tested and working

• Front brake pads approximately 60% remaining

• Rear brake pads approximately 70% remaining

• Front tires approximately 9/32" tread

• Rear tires approximately 11/32" tread

Finding a clean Eurovan Camper is becoming increasingly difficult. Finding one with a rebuilt engine, extensive suspension work, premium upgrades, and a Colorado Camper Vans electric poptop is rarer still.

While the odometer shows 203,000 miles, much of the expensive mechanical work that concerns Eurovan buyers has already been completed, making this a compelling option for buyers who value maintenance history and upgrades over low mileage alone

If you've been searching for a Eurovan Camper that has already received many of the upgrades owners typically spend years and thousands of dollars adding, this van deserves a serious look.
