mk7 Jumbo Advice

Postby kevcon » Wed Jun 19, 2013 1:51 pm

Hi all

Was woundering what your thourts are on this one.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/230993309396? ... 1438.l2649

Have spoken to the guy and all seem genuine. Has a fair few miles on the clock (167000) but has been looked after by two large companys.
Is more of a camper at the moment but have big plains for it. Will be mostly used for work as have to stay away most weeks, but also looking to use it at weekends for trips out with the kids.

Have put a small deposit down and will be going to look/buy on saturday.

Any input would be great as this will be my first van.

thanks
kev

Thanks Blue Estate

Have asked about hunting and lights and all is good.
Just had new discs and pads all round, so hopefuly all covered.
