Hi all

I am hoping to pick everyone's brains

I find myself without a van for the first time since I was 19 and we are pursuing vans that fit our requirements

We quite fancy a James cook or a westfalia bug nugget and am looking at importing from Germany to get the van we want. We also have been looking at karmann colorados on a t5 vw.

Does anyone have either it any experience of them , or even better know where one is that we can look at in the uk ??

Or does anyone else know of a 4 berth 4 seatbelt van under 5.7 meter long ??

Thanks

Daniel

We went to look at a Westfalia last year at Lowdhams, might be worth looking on their website or ringing them?

Just had a look at yours and very nice bit of kit , from a practical point of view a high quality PVC conversion such as yours ticks most boxes , and I am very envious of the PVC drivers when trying to slither through Cornwall and trying to park up in town, Hope you have many comfy trips in your new wagon

Thanks !

Our isn't a new one but has everything we need Except the winter pack ,needs to be smallish as I use the van as my car for work etc

Would have liked a newer can but good price right spec etc won me over.

Hopefully not a downsize too far...
