I think the last year I had my old van I did over 10,000 miles in it. Enjoy your new home and family Bolly
I get all your reasons for selling the bus Rick, but what I don't get is why a T5? You've said you had no room for you and the Mrs in the poo bus but T5's are Marmite on space. My mate has a lwb T5 and he doesn't have much more room than my tintop. Why not get a fit for purpose camper and a cheaper small engine run about.
I can completely see the logic in your solution. It does cost a fortune driving them about. I wish you all the best with the new adventure and glad to hear you will still be hanging about on here.
If it's in your head and what you wanna do you'll now know the hardest bit it getting round to doing it, once it's done you realise that it's not the trauma that you thought it would be
for those who haven't noticed as posted on another thread it seems my old van is now for sale on vw downunder for 20k. it seems "fraser" who i sold it to was a fibber lol, still i'm happy at the price i got but they are telling fibs in their for sale so.....
Haha, can't even get the year right,isn't it a 78? And they clearly bought it just to sell on. Oh well,you got what you wanted for it
