Phil,

I bought my last 2 buses from Ebay. Both in the UK and both v.cheap.

You need to look beyond the usual 't25 camper' searches and be a bit less specific but search through the ads. Check spelling mistakes (e.g. Synchro) as often poor typing in the ads leaves them out of searches.

My latest one wasn't listed as 4wd, 4x4 or Syncro. It was down as a VW camper. No T25, T3, Syncro etc.

The owner had no idea what Syncro mean't or what the difflocks did. That's why it sold for less than 3k!!!!

Yes mate it's only ten mins down the road, poor fitting roof, VC knackered no diffs and the fuse box was arching everytime we indicated etc etc

Nice bloke though

It's amazing in the whole of Europe I can't find anything that fits the bill? Not even closely.

By the way Paul check your FB inbox :ok

As already mentioned, there are lots of Syncros here in Finland, and I would be happy to help, even would drive one to UK for you should you want. All I would ask is the money for van, fuel, ferry, transfer plates(allows me to drive a none stamped vehicle), food, and flight back home. I have family in the UK, so could kill two birds with one stone :ok
