Volkswagen Camper 1,9L 2001

Volkswagen Transporter T4 1.9 TD – Camper Van with Awning & Canopy System (Cyprus Registered)

For sale is my reliable VW Transporter T4 1000TD SWB from 2001.

The van is in good overall condition for its age and has only around 136,000 km on the clock, which is very low for a T4 of this year. It is currently registered in Cyprus, left‑hand drive, and ready to drive away.

The van is fitted with the well‑known 1.9 TD diesel engine (1896 cc, approx. 68 hp) and front‑wheel drive. This engine is simple, economical and easy to maintain – ideal for a practical camper or work van. Top speed is about 130–135 km/h, but it is most comfortable cruising more slowly, perfect for relaxed island touring.

The body type is panel van (2 seats in the front, cargo/camper space in the back). It is a short wheelbase (SWB) model, so it is much easier to park and manoeuvre than a long van, but still offers plenty of interior space for camping or transporting equipment. The van currently has two registered seats; the rest of the interior is open and can be configured according to your needs (camper conversion, tools and equipment, bikes, etc.).

One of the highlights is the high‑quality canopy / awning system mounted on the side of the van, as seen in the photos. The awning extends quickly to create a shaded outdoor living area, and the side walls provide extra wind and sun protection. This makes the van perfect for beach days, camping, festivals or use as a base for sports like kitesurfing, cycling or hiking. The system is easy to set up and pack away and gives the van a real “mini‑camper” character.

The simple interior, straight body lines and practical setup make it a great base for someone who wants to finish or customise a camper conversion to their own taste.

Mechanically, the van runs well and starts reliably. It has a valid MOT and the Cyprus road tax is paid, so the new owner can drive it immediately without additional costs. Regular maintenance has been carried out and the mileage is genuine. The bodywork is in honest, used condition with normal signs of age and use, but no major structural issues that would stop you using it as a daily driver or camper.
