So I have a W-reg Caravelle of which I am the second owner, and which I have driven for the last 5.5 years.

It has quite a few miles on the clock (something like 190000), and has carried my family and I, plus all our camping gear across Europe - from Spain to Poland - over the years.

It has its quirks, including fussy electrics on the dash, coolant that needs to be topped up every few months, not-very-visible, but quite significant rust on the passenger-side B-pillar, and a large dent in the tailgate caused when I backed into a tree.

So, all-in-all, it is a van that will give some family, or surfer, or mountainbiker some pleasure for a while to come, but not in impeccable shape.

Would such a vehicle pose any interest to a sporty-type person? Or is it even worth selling at this point?

Please note that I am only thinking of selling at this point, so am just asking whether or not the collected wisdom of STW thinks it would get me anything and/or if it is still worth keeping on the road.
