Fancy living like Shaggy and Scooby? You can now purchase your very own ‘Mystery Machine’ for just £1,300. An iconic van painted with the famous bright blue, green, and orange exterior has been listed on Facebook Marketplace, with the seller accepting offers starting at £1,200.
The camper van, which sleeps four, is a 1983 Bedford CF 250 Autosleeper and has been in the seller’s family for 16 years, according to Luxury Auto News. Based in the Nottingham area, it comes complete with leopard print seats and funky curtains, adding to its groovy charm.
In the TV show, the Mystery Machine was used by Scooby, Shaggy, Fred, Velma, and Daphne to investigate mysteries, traveling around in their trusty van to unmask over 300 different villains. This 1983 vehicle hasn’t seen quite as much action but was in daily use up until 2022 and hasn’t been used since.

Its oven and fridge were in working order the last time it was used, making it perfect for adventures and hosting on the go. With a bit of a revamp and some TLC, the van could help you solve your own mysteries around the UK—you just need to recruit your own team.
Last year, a similarly decorated ‘Mystery Machine’ van, personalized for ex-One Direction members Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik, went on sale for £39,990. This Volkswagen was transformed into a replica of the Scooby-Doo vehicle and customized for the band members before their Where We Are Tour in 2014.
Previously listed on eBay for the same price in 2020, the van featured a blue vinyl wrap with the iconic orange Mystery Machine logo and an orange flower like the original. Inside, two black leather seats were inscribed with the singers’ initials—LT and ZJM—and included a large gaming system with an Xbox, TV screen, and Nintendo Wii to keep the band entertained on the road.
This unique opportunity offers a chance to own a piece of pop culture history and embark on your own adventures in style.
