Very new owner of very old Ford Legend!

Hello all,

New to motorhomes and never been caravanning in my life.

Purchased an old auto-sleeper Ford Legend earlier this year.

Have tried her out on local trips so far and love the layout of the monocoque shell back.
Warm and cosy and just spot on for what we need.
She has had the interior refurbished recently (not by us).

Definitely got the campervan bug now!

Happy camping folks!

Marie :D

PS. We have a star-shaped crack in one of the big main side windows and would love to know where we can get a replacement, or even update both windows with newer types either side if it's possible.

I have a feeling A-S Spares Dept may be able to help you over the window, if not ask them who used to supply them - you will find them very helpfull.

I know of one of these vans that was sold either late last year or early this year by a lady in Shropshire. They dont come up that often

I sent A-S them an email request via their website earlier today and hoping they can help.

No doubt they will cost a fortune if they have any (!), but at least we have a friend who can fit them for us.

We bought the van from a friend's son. He had acquired it from a local chap who'd had it for a year or two and worked on the interior (he is or has been a professional caravan fitter from Wolsingham, County Durham).

It's far from perfect but it does the job.
