My beast for 3 months in Europe!

Postby Mr.150 » Thu May 26, 2011 2:33 pm

Hey guys! It's awesome that there's a forum for Transit vans! Amazing what you'll find on the net!

I've just put down a deposit on a Transit van to take me around Europe for 3 months from June! This is my beast...
http://www.bwcampers.com/factsheet.php?sales_item_id=20&lang=en&country_id=18

I don't know a thing about Transits - this van was pretty much the only option available (it's hard for Aussies to buy vans in Europe and get them registered and insured), but I'm pretty stoked with it!

Just wondering what sort of problems could arise with the amount of mileage it has? Is there anything common I should know about??

Stoked to be part of the forum, can't wait to share some stories once I'm in Europe! :D

Cheers for all your words so far!

I'm just wondering if anyone knows where I could download an Owners Manual from? I've searched the net and this site, but can't find anything that look suitable...
