Postby chris177 » Fri Jun 29, 2012 6:51 pm

Hi everybody,i have just joined the forum today, as i am trying to buy a transit Aventura 4 berth motorhome.
it will be my first motorhome and i was wondering if anyone could give me an idea of what i should be looking out for and what i should be paying for it,roughly??
it is a 1979 4 berth Aventura with a 2.0 litre petrol engine fitted to it.
it is in nice condition and has 5200 mls on the speedometer from new,(with old mot papers as well)
i would be greatful for your thoughts and views as i would like to try and buy it next week if possible.
thanks again for your input and views
regards

you need to look for corrosion :!: check the chassis rails especially around the spring hangers and mounting points - the engine even if the millage is wrong should be ok - the 2.0 pinto is a strong unit :D

should be very nice with those miles on tho 8)
