Ok, for arroundabout £4k I can get a basicly fitted out T4 with rock'n'roll bed and some cabinets. Rangeing from completely finished ones with high mileage to lower milage ones bodged out of stuff from IKEA. Mileage varies from 150k to 200k, seen one with 200k and a new engine 32k ago, could that be a good buy?
Cant really afford to spend much more so was wondering is this worthwhile? I guess they wont depreciate any further, but will probably make up for that in repair bills. But equaly 88bhp form a 1.9TD is peanuts, so does the low state of tune give limitless reliability as long as theres a service history?
Is there a better van out there for that kind of money? I know VW's attract a premium as campervans (coz they is a veeeDUBBB 'init?) is there anything else worth looking for that could potentialy be a better bet? Transit, traffic, etc?
Never bought a diesel before, (fuel of satan, hate the feking stuff), do they follow the same rules as buying a petrol engine? (rumbling = big end, tapping = valve/timing problems, tapping + smoke = worn valves, etc etc).
