Postby stevo904 » Fri Dec 07, 2012 6:21 pm

Hi all,

Going out to look at a few vans this weekend so i can start converting it into a camper in the new year.

She who must be obeyed has given me a list of what i have to include in the build which as left me with the option of a LWB or a LWB :?
full cooker, fridge, microwave, shower, toilet the list goes on and on.

My question is which power unit do you recommend, only looking to spend up to £3000 so maybe a mk6, would a 90 t350 be suitable or would it be under powered ?
your thought please,

thanks Steve
