My 2003 mk6 SWB low top has just been written off by my Father in law so Im on the hunt for another one.
2004 onwards, sensible mileage and as little rust as possible.
Budget is £1500 or so.
Must have at least 6 months MOT pref 12 months.

Im in Oxfordshire but happy to travel for the right van.

Give me a shout on 07500 554285

The mk6 is a TDCI so run, run fast and run far :lol:
Mk7 looks OK though. N

There’s plenty about on eBay, just be careful as they are old now and you can see from some of the pictures that they’ve been bodged together to make them look nice and clean when really it’s probably a shower of sh*t. As with any van, get underneath and check it’s solid.

You say the mk6 tdci is problematic but honestly, where's the evidence? :P

I'd rather buy salvage than some guff on eBay that the seller had tinkered with then says yeah man it's mint like new like it came from the factory.


Then you go to view it.......
