Wouldn't really worry about what year it is.Its condition of bodywork that really counts. Still van two for me (going of the photos)

It's all down to the bodywork mate ....either van 2 or 3

tough one engine Wise 1 but not worth anywhere near what he wants. I'm sure he wants back what he spent on it but it doesn't work like that 2 seems good is a nice but pricey, and 3 is a good compromise but i am sure i can see a few dents and i think that sliding door being open is covering an unsympathetic spray job or more dents look closely but without seeing it i cant say.

van2 for me (without looking). I'd always buy a van from the owner in preference to a dealer as they'll be able to tell you much more about its history, what's been changed and you'll get a much better sense of how well it has been looked after.

Van 2 has all the appearance of being absolutely first rate.

yup def had spray though only on door and rear quarter i know a good sprayer local as long as its not bodged or rust under there

but the van is super cheap hummm

kind of a compromise between the two i would say. enough left to get it gassed a bloke on here called putney has a real nice villa 3 with 2.1 propex super streight etc i would pay top wack for one like his but remember, lots mor on the market yet. i will keep my eyes open for you

Van 2.........if it were up to me.

Are you in a genuine hurry to buy for a reason or just so excited by the prospect of owning one? It doesn't hurt to have a look at as many as you can before taking the plunge. Go along to a couple of club meets and look over a few in the flesh and get loads of impartial advice into the bargain.....

no he's just conscious of the fact that once the weather warms up they'll all be at least a grand dearer

pretty much no hurry but know what i want now got to be a holdsworth villa 3:)
i agree van 2 is mint but its also £1500 dearer than van 3 for a older van just trying to get my head round that fsct

with the £150 i could easily get a well known local vw specialist to respray it for me

Still van 2 for me!

gould darn it i cant convince you lot can i
