Stuart and Ingrid Marchbank – lucky Just Kampers ‘One in A Hundred’ Winners
Stuart and Ingrid Marchbank became campervan fanatics when they bought their 1977 VW Campervan about three and a half years ago. It was in terrible shape but they decided to make a go of doing it up themselves.
"We didn’t really know where to start it was in such a state," said Ingrid. "It didn’t have any windows or doors and the inside was a mess so we totally gutted it. Tore everything out, consulted the manuals and set about restoring it to its former glory."
Just when they were in the middle of the renovations and were struggling to fit the poptop roof, their daughter Becky announced that she’d like to have a camper van cavalcade at her fast approaching wedding.
"That certainly gave us an incentive to get the job done," said Stuart. "We’d also booked to go to VanFest and VW Action Santa Pod to show it off so we spent all our spare time working on the van and managed to get it finished just in time."
On the big day in August 2008 Ingrid and Stuart teamed up with a friend’s matching VW campervan to drive the wedding party to and from St Peter’s Church in Derby. It was a proud moment for everyone and made all the work on the VW worthwhile.
As an added bonus Ingrid and Stuart have just found out they are one of Just Kampers lucky One in a Hundred Winners. Every one hundredth person taking out a policy with Just Kampers Insurance Services gets a full refund of their first premium. The refund is paid in Just Kampers vouchers which can be exchanged for anything on the Just Kampers site or in the catalogue, from engine parts and accessories, to leisure items as varied as solar panels, sleeping bags or fold away barbeques.
"We were so surprised to find out we’d won. It’s great and means we can get some much needed window thermo mats and a new electronic ignition system," says Stuart. "And if there’s anything left over from that we’ll probably get a 12V fan for summer."
