That's an easy desision 
It's got to be the carat 

As you know I have had my RHD carat 
For over 10 years  and luv it to bits
And have never had any major problems 
And it's now on 220k
Now my t5 which I have had for just
Over a year has been a complete 
Bag of sh#t there has not been a month
When anything has not gone wrong
And it's all been big stuff 
Abs pump ,gearbox,clocks and this week the engine
Has started to hold back and is a bit lumpy
I suspect the camshaft has gone 
Which is a common problem on the PD engine

I have spent more money on the t5 keeping it on 
The road than I spent buying the van and doing the engine
Conversion on the T3  !!

thanks thats reassured me that buying a new one might not be the best option the carat will be coming home at some point ,(got to sort out my dads funeral first)
i loved it and i think charlie at t3 tuning  did to when i took him for a spin in it 
mr baxter did a wonderful job setting it up ,shame theres no one like him down this way
mind you i havent met you bristol guys yet
