Westfalia James Cook 2004

Very nice. We have owned since 2018 and performed a lot of updates and improvements as below. Now, unfortunately, we have to change the car to a model with the beds in normal level as I unfortunately can no longer climb up / down in bed, otherwise the plan was to keep the car for several more years. Everything works great except for the diesel heater for the passenger compartment which requires pass-through / service (probably a simple electrical fault). The windshield should be replaced when a minor crack has appeared from the lower right corner (probably stone chips, should go on insurance).

Milage: about 206.000 kilometers
Inspected until 2023-12-31. Previous inspection 2022-10-28 without remarks
Total weight 3.500 kg. With 2 people and full packing / clothes and sports equipment / water (100 L) / food and drink for several weeks, we have weighed the car to about 3,450 kg at the Swedish Road Administration's wave stations
Serviced every year by ourselves with oil, oil filters, etc. according to the service book
Automatic gearbox
Nice summer wheels on original alloy wheels
Nice winter wheels on sheet metal rims
Bike rack in the rear for 1-4 bikes

Thank you Thomas, the translate function didn't understand kilometers or miles. The mileage is 206.000 kilometers as you wrote

Really the model I'm looking for to change my 312.... Too bad it's so far away (2700 km)...

If it isn’t sold before April we might (probably) drive it down Spain and empty our boat that also will be sold. On our way back to home we can show the van to interests.

We have now found and ordered our new van. It’s a KABE Affinity based on Fiat Ducato Maxi, manufactured in 2021 and in a very nice condition. The bed will suit us very well as it is placed in the rear and electrically operated in both height and backrest.

When we pick up the new van (in 2-3 weeks) they will take care of our JC and sell it for us if we haven’t sold it yet. They are the Swedish reseller of Westfalia and have good knowledge of our James Cook model.

I’ll keep you updated with the sale process.

I am in a beautiful country on the road to Spain....

Very beautiful area in southern France
We usually drive there on our way to Spain but we’ll probably drive on the west coast of France during our next trip to Spain.

Hi,

If we have a deal before friday 10/2 (when we planned to take it to the dealer) the lowest price is 30.000 EUR. I would be more than happy to sell it to a forum member.

Otherwise the dealer has promised he will sell it for around 35.000 EUR.

Hi Jan!
What kind of boat are you planing to sell?

Regards,
Ray

[Jan M]

Hi Ray,

It is a very fine sailboat, a deck saloon. Moody Eclipse 33 MK2. Ours is in very good condition and also very well equipped. I’ll put together an advert in the Moody forums in a week or two.
