Sadly, my pride and Joy is up for sale. I’ve had some amazing adventures in the Caddy, and she has never let me down. Impending house purchase forces the sale. Hopefully someone can get just as much enjoyment out of it as I have had.

Sadly, my pride and Joy is up for sale. I’ve had some amazing adventures in the Caddy, and she has never let me down. Impending house purchase forces the sale. Hopefully someone can get just as much enjoyment out of it as I have had.
I had the van built with a go anywhere in any weather adventures in mind. I’ve been all over Scotland, England and France and she has never caused me any problems.
She’s a super reliable Caddy, always maintained, regardless of cost.
