Hi All,
Have just joined the forum so thought I'd say have and also ask for a bit of advice. After hiring various campers over the yrs we have now decided to purchase our first vw camper but we can't seem to get a idea on a realistic budget. On Ebay and gumtree prices are quite carried and a small minority of the sellers I have spoke to seem suspect. We have a budget of around 4-6k and was hoping for a fairly decent t4/5 with fairly decent mileage. Is that achievable? Also where would be best to purchase from? Thanks, Adam Edited by re-dec - 28 Jun 16 at 14:12 |

Prices vary an awful lot, but I'd be surprised if you can find a decent lowish mileage, fully converted T4 / T5 for that money. You're more likely to be looking at a home-brew conversion on an older, higher mileage T4 IMHO. Not that that's necessarily a bad thing, but as with any older, higher mileage vehicle there are more potential mechanical / bodywork pitfalls and the quality of home-brew conversions obviously varies an awful lot.
Or... for your budget you could look around for an unmolested panel van and do the conversion yourself over a period of time.
