I wonder if anyone out there can help me with my dilemma. I am torn between two vans. They are almost the same price. They are the same year, I can't see any difference in their condition, MOT checks don't show much difference either. Both 6m long, layouts are similar. Both at the same dealer.
Van 1 has a good sized garage, an acceptable layout inside, with raised transverse bed, cab air con. 2L, 40,000 miles.
Van 2 has a small, just about adequate garage, a better layout inside, French bed, no cab air con. 2.8L, 58,000 miles.

Primarily, the advice I am looking for is on the mileage and engine size - how much of a drawback is 50% more miles? The extra power - do I need it? How much will that impact on fuel consumption?

Presumably lots of people get to this point in their search - this one or that one. How do you decide?

My Compass Suntor 2005 has 120000 miles on. Peugeot Boxer 2 litre.Just me driving since new in 2005. Full service history. Should I be concerned traversing Europe with such a high mileage vehicle. Full service history. Is my worry all in my head?

Sounds like it’s just been run in nicely and now to do a good run.....??

I wouldn’t worry one bit, you know every inch of it.... go and enjoy like you have for the last 14yrs...?
