id have them check the anti freeze, the 1.9 petrol for example uses 7.5 ltr
which is essential the prevent corrosion of the head studs

also if the engine is due a service id have a full one, this will ensure you will get the best from your new van. any nocks and squeaks you should make a note of and post for advice. most are common and can be explained without footing a bill to get them looked at.


any gas appliances can be safety checked i think steve 80-90 does them. and if not im sure someone will be able to advise you further as to where to go or at least what to look for.

I can vouch for Phil Davies in Plymouth, and he is right next door to GSF.
