I'd echo that, sojourner . I was going to buy a Bongo, because they are petrol, not diesel, but a couple of months on the Bongo owners FB group put me right off. There's a lot of Transporter groups on FB worth joining, just to get a feel for what it's actually like owning one, and what it will cost in repairs/MOT etc, before you buy. Ignore the silly buggers who "slam" their vans and stick 20" wheels on them. If there's a local owners group, so much the better. And as Sweet FA says, beware scammers. Not that you are daft enough to get caught out.If you're musing about buying a VW sojourner, there are a few groups (though quite a few scams; if it looks too good to be true, it definitely is). Some people just put up a vague spec and price and ask what's out there. Gets loads of vans; quite a few decent ones not at insane money.

I'd probably have had to give up (or at least cut back on) festivals by now if I hadn't got my van. It's well worth it.
