It's the campers and minibuses which have tended to survive. Not worked so hard. Kept under cover and locked away in a garage when the owner's too old to drive. There was a Jennings camper - more like a motorhome - sold on Ebay recently for a squeak over £6K.
Wonder how many are left on the road? I've heard a figure of 10 (*).

Yes I was watching the Jennings one on ebay but it went too dear and I dont really have the space for such a big van anyway.

Back in the day......had this one as my work van at the time. By then badged Standard 15 in New Zealand. Later ones were Leyland 15's and 20's. Also drove them. The Leyland 20 was the first new vehicle I had driven . All fitted over here with Vanguard 4 cyl motor.

I was at the Mathewsons auction sale today and saw the Atlas Camper knocked down for £5600 and it wasn't as good as it looks in the photos plus I got talking to a previous owner of said vehicle and he had to sell it at auction as well.
Maybe not as popular as you think

Think it just depends on the audience. Had this one been on ebay it would have attracted more interest.
