HI There, I’m very excited to have come across your web site. I am looking at getting a GMC Day van for long and short surf trips. Age of vehicle undecided but would love to test drive and look around at what you have at the moment to get an idea of what exactly i would be wanting to buy… Where are you situated?

Hi Norv,

I have sent you an email regarding purchasing or importing a GMC day van or similar american dayvan

Cheers,

Jon.

Hi Jon,

I am in Leicestershire, if you can suggest any advice I would be very grateful.

David

Hello – been looking at getting a Day Van for weekends away….any advise given would be most appricecated

Hi Jon,

Great site! I’m very happy I’ver come across your details. I am in the market now for a chevy G20 or Dodge Ram Van and can’t find much for sale in the UK. I’ve taked to American car importers who don’t seem to want to help. I’m quite open to colour etc and open to all sorts!

Many thanks.

Al

I’ve got a nice explorer conversion available now at Yokohama.

Will send you the details and post up on the blog too!

Thanks,

Jon.

Hi Jon, I’m looking into buying a late 90’s astro converstion (eg. starcraft).
I wondered if you could give me some details on shipping prices and exchange rate, and perhaps, the total it would cost me in England including import tax custom fees and VAT?

Many thanks,

Les

Hi

We go Camping a bit too, so we need a bit of storage too. Not fussed what is it as long as its got those few things. Do you think I am asking the impossible? Many Thanks

Hi Wendy, I shall reply via E-mail.

Hi, I have been looking at a couple of american vans on ebay recently and have just come across your site – any information on importing something like the GMC starcraft with an lpg conversion would be much appreciated. Many thanks, Rich

Hello,
I’m after a G20 day van. I was hoping you can help.
Best Regards
Gus.

well i had a day van it looked cool but parts are expensive and the insurance is expensive as they all have big engines, most are petrol and we know how expensive that is, well if you buy a day van make sure its got a gas convertion and make sure the tv is pal or it wont work here.

Please fill out the import service form at http://www.supercamper.co.uk/jap-camper-import-blog/import-service-form

Then fill in your details and also what type of vehicle you want us to source for you and as much additional information as possible.

And to the original question, yes we can import G20 vans for you, but we would have to get them converted to LPG here in the UK. We can get this done for 1600 pounds.

Regards,

Jon @ Supercamper

No American or Japanese van will have a PAL TV because their system is NTSC.

No American or Japanese van will come with an LPG conversion fitted, as it is pretty non existent over there and petrol is a lot cheaper that here in the UK.

We can however arrange to get this fitted in the UK, the price for a V6 astro is 1400 and a V8 G20 would be 1600.

hello there, i am looking at buying one of these dayvans , do you ever get any right hand drive vehchiles as i have test driven a lhd and didn,t get on very well, cheers cliff, leicester

Hi Cliff,

We have just purchased an Astro day van for a customer. And we have imported quite a few to date.

However, being American vans they are all LHD.

Only the Japanese stuff is RHD.

Many thanks,

Jon.

I have Chevy G20 Conversion. 1994 but only 53,000 original miles. It was a concept car, one of a kind, all leather interior, including queen sized plush leather bed. $2800.00.

Hi, I am keen to find out more about your imports, I work in the movie industrie and spend a lot of time away from home. I do have a van at the moment but am considering an up grade in the next few months. Any guidance would be great. The GMC starcraft looks perfect.

hi, i have a 1985 g20 dayvan. looks like i have lost the keys. do you have any idea where i can source a new ignition barrel and door locks for such a van

Hi Kevin,

I’m not too sure. I would say the best place to ask that sort of question would be a forum. Not sure if there are any G20 forums in the UK, however there is a chevy Astro forum called “astrosafari.co.uk”

I would say that someone on there should have an idea of who to contact to find new keys and a barrel.

Many thanks,

Jon.
