Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

Another Mercedes?

Don’t even have to do the driving.

Beaten to it

This was the car I mentioned when the nurseholiday volvo was up for sale. Is this worth 20k? Was up fro 25k, i think it was this car.

If you don’t mind having the bikes outside the van there’s heaps of stuff like this on eBay

I'd want the bikes inside - very large part of the motivation for the van.

If they'd put a V8 in this it'd be close to perfect

35k

That merc looks a bit bleak on the inside no?

Also doesn't have safari windows...

This, I am afraid to say, smacks very much “we are about to go bust”

I would be working out the cheapest way to walk away.

Can't you get a younger nicer elgrand (Or whatever badge it comes with) for that kind of money?

Alphard and odesey in there too. Isn't there a v8 4x4 or are they all v6?

Check out the interior...

MMM check out that velour.

Bought a smart forfour recently and took it back after 1 day as the engine light came (plus it was a bit shit) dealer gave me my money back, no question asked, well they did ask but I just said I didn't want it anymore.

If you change your mind before you collect it they'll just take your deposit innit. Tbf I haven't been paying attention to your plight.

Lolz 😂

Bear in mind what you posted elsewhere this entire campervan thing is predicated on you having to live in England.
If you no longer do, then fuck the holiday-pikey van off, use the money to move to the most convenient bit of France and you no longer need the thing.

I’m happy to advise on buying property here.

Have you driven a late model Sprinter? They're comfy, quiet and have oodles of space. I was amazed how good the 4 cylinder diesel is - zips up to 80 in no time. Sips fuel. They're even decent off road (and you don't need the 4x4 version for that either.)

They rust like you wouldn’t believe though.

Rust?

This is the best advice.

Neil, I refuse to believe they are the only people doing bike related conversions.
From what I've heard, I'd walk from these people.

Ben Cathro on insta has just had a VW done with a biking specific conversion done by someone in Milton Keynes. Although it seems like its through a leasing complany - https://kardileasing.co.uk/

a very lazy Google brings up these folk https://www.newwavecustomconversions.co.uk/gallery/
So theres got to be plenty others who will do a mtb centric conversion.

It says they take CC.
