• I'm considering finally saving up for a van, so speculatively looking at Transit Customs and VW Transporters for sale on ebay to get an idea on price. Quite a few appear very cheap, but not too good to be true, compared to the going rate (90%). I presume with these vehicles, and the owners they attract, there are a lot of scammers about?

  • Depending on the age you're looking at Transporter prices can be vary quite a bit. Esp depending on whether they're camper converted or not, what sort of conversion etc.

    On the scammer thing - it's possible, esp with transporters. They're consistently popular so attract chancers but they're often apparent in that there'll be someone asking £8k for a total shitbox, or wanting to recoup every penny of the £12k they spent on their diy conversion.

  • Thanks a lot for the reply. I'd be looking at a basic van to fit motorbikes in the back and sleeping bag, real poverty spec. I'll keep my wits about me regarding the scams, but no doubt looking at eBay until I'm ready to purchase will help get a sense of what the going rate is. Cheers.
