Im in no way related to the seller, but at this price, its a steal. Electric mirrors, front & rear diff locks by the look of it. Jail bars, and much more.

Very tempting but 1750 mile at 20mpg plus ferrys etc would turn into an expensive road trip to collect it!

So errr how does one go about driving it back ? How can it be insured to drive it home ? Then do you get stung for a load of import taxes ?

Insure it on the VIN number,put petrol in and drive.

As for import taxes....Finland is in Europe.

What I did with mine, was got temp plated insurance for the day I collected it, only around €30 Euros. This allows you to drive it throughout Europe for the day afaik.

If taking it to the UK, of course costs are involved such as train, fuel, ferries, food, drink, and return flights.

For me to bring a vehicle to the UK for anyone, you are looking at around €2.5k on top of van purchase price to get said vehicle to your door.

Thats fine, still worth the investment for parts. Hoping to get some interior photos to show R&R bed, which is why Im interested in this one.

Hope this doesn't seem a daft qusetion - why so cheap for the van?
