Syncro 4&4 Discussion and Q&A last answered over 2 years ago.
You may also want to visit the Wiki(pedia) for a more structured index of T25 repair, maintenance, technical and ownership topics (browse for Syncro links)
You can find further syncro specific information on the Syncronauts website.
Just wanted to say what a fascinating and informative thread.
I am also looking for my first syncro (been searching for about 12 months) and have learnt a lot from the sage advice offered to Cooper as well as all the other resources on the site.
Should someone be distilling the gems from this thread into another wiki page?

You could give Marcus a go and buy this, https://club8090.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=97763" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and with the rest of your budget pay him to finish it ready for you to use. Marcus is always up for a deal and very realistic on what things are worth.
I just remembered about these old video clips of Marcus's van, its the perfect colour if you plan on wild camping as it blends in just about anywhere. Hope this helps,
