Couldn't agree more
I bought my van with no idea what it really was, but thanks to lots of help from people on here, I'm keeping it

Jeez, I'm well behind you on the learning curve then; I work on 2 hours of beer then get someone to look at the van
I love my van & was very lucky with the one I bought, I think.... Never been one for "bog standard run of the mill" vehicles and this suits me fine. Yes it can be a pain at times, wouldn't it be nice to be able to just run it into the local garage.....
But it's so much nicer to know that you can just put a bit of gear in it and disappear for as long as you want
