Title: WANTED VW Transporter T4
Post by: madgaz on August 04, 2009, 11:29:36 pm
Looking for a T4 Transporter if anybody comes across one.
Needs to be MINT outside but interior doesn't matter as I'll be ripping that out over time and pimping it myself haha.

Would like the 2.5 TDi 105bhp version.

As said...paintwork and panels have to be as near mint as possible...would like to spend as little as possible as usual but might be able to stretch to £3500 for the right one ;)

is it just me or has anyone else noticed the following these little vans seem to have. Are they the new VW camper?
Nice choice Gaz. Very similar in shape to the scooby isn't it? ha!

Best go for a long wheel base Gaz to get the centre of gravity right  ;D ;D

Decent choice, but id say it will be a tad more reliable than the scooby.  :D

f-ing *BLEEP* loads of the crappy things down here. I am forever overtaking them, even in the diesel Mondeo....

Pile of poo if you ask me mate, there are loads just in the car park at work, all rusty and all usually in the garage getting fixed. Amazing what being apparently trendy will do for a van that isn't really very good....lol

Old AA ones as well, loads round here f-ing bright yellow things - sorry but as you can tell, living in Cornwall has given me a loathing for them, slow, rusty and usually not being driven very well....lol

Get a transit mini bus and convert to a camper  ;)

They might be slow down there Wiggy but all the drivers are stoned haha.
Not after a rocket ship to be honest...but it has to have some poke.

The newer ones are apparently OK but you will be looking at 10K + for one...

What about a Merc Vito? Or a sprinter if you want something bigger???

What the plans for it? Camper?

The plans for it are work.
I gave up the BMW and bought a Subaru Forester to try save the company money. Now he's decided I need a van...which I have to bloody pay for >:( >:( >:(
Also we're looking at doing more car shows this year and next as we need to shift these sponges and stuff we imported so it'll be semi 'pimped' LOL to look a bit better and also have the provision of somewhere dry for me to sleep haha.

I would say you can't really go wrong with a transit. millions of builders can't be wrong....lol

Parts are much cheaper as well  ;) plus there are loads about so they are cheap to buy  ;)
