Hopefully going to look at that on Thursday. Needs some bbs style wheels and a rear spoiler....
Are you particularly taken with these Nic, or is it that you want a FWD van for the flatter/lower load space?

I've been driving my dads t5 around a lot lately and definitely prefer driving my t4! Feels a lot bigger and I can't get used to the driving position? But the dash looks a lot better and bodywork has less issues with rust etc. This is mine with bbs style alloys supplied by bmautosport
The one in the ebay ad looks pretty tidy, there's always a few good ones on the t4 forum as well!

Ah ha. Worked on a lot of these, Sprinters, Vitos and Trafics too. Not a fan of the way any of them are put together or what they're like to work on. Not too keen on how they all drive either.
You'll probably call me a pikey, but i'd prefer a clean, facelift MK III Transit to all of the above, either in van, camper, or minibus form. Easier to work on and far nicer to drive, from my personal standpoint.
Hope you find a goodun Sir.

thats cool indeed! I'm looking at bbs wheels for one I get although the places I go and will go I may have to leave it on 16s and normal tyres most of the time. Might pm you some questions about them if that's ok?

Any reason why you don't want a Transit?
You could get one for less than the first one, and carpet the back if you want.

That was half my point - you could get something newer, or with fewer miles, or bigger for the same money. £5.7k for a 2001 on 150k is nuts. They don't half hold the money.

I sold a T4 a year ago with 140k miles for just £3500. Can't believe they're selling for so much still!
