He just a chancer. He got a deal on it as he said he was going to fix it up. Prop shafts off, coupling is shagged, diff locks are seized, rust is serious and the steering pump has gone. Many issues.

and don't forget...you'll get the pleasure of having to pay VAT on it when you import it as Guernsey is outside the EU.

Why is it on the Syncro section, there are some that seem to take great delight at ripping people to bits?

The panel van seems a pretty stright forward advert to me.

He has not described the panel van as being the best van out there, He seems to have been pretty honest to me... He's also put it on at a realistic price, with no reserve...What more can the lad do?

He has even stipulated that the price includes delivery to Poole!

I just don't see what sort of a kick certain individuals get from this type of humiliation?

Its like the Syncro community take great delight at acting like pack animals...They see a weakness, and then group round for the kill....Having been into VW busses for well over 25 years, I can honestly say, that I have never come across such actions within any other VW circles!

There are a few people on here, that have got way too much time on their hands!

Give the guy a break, he's selling a van FFS!, not trying to murder anyone! :roll:

Yes I read the thread...Did you read my post?

I'm asking a question, as to why action like the ones on here, only seem to happen on the Syncro section?

Nobody else in other VW circles that I know of, seem to take great delight in ripping people to bits publically?

Bhpdub.
This guy is trying to rip people off. The doka is a dog he has only owned for a matter of weeks and is nothing like his description on eBay. The panel is even.worse, a freebie and another.hound. he's a well known for this kind of crap over here.
On this occasion the forum have called it perfectly.

Because we can recognise a pup when we see one. People do lurk here before buying a Syncro and banter like this can save them from making a mistake. In this case a previous owner has posted confirming what we had already said. We are not "ripping anyone to bits", we are merely pointing out what pitfalls this particular black DoKa has.

Its a unique service we Syncro owners provide !!
