Hi all
I'm new to the forum as I'm looking for a bit of advice on buying a 2000-ish vclass.

I'm looking at a V230 or V220 campervan and wondered if anyone can give me pros and cons of each engine. MPG aside, which would you buy??

If anyone has one for sale, please let me know.

Thanks guys

Nick
 
V220 diesel
V230 2.3 Mercedes 4cyl petrol
V280 2.8 VW VR6 v6 petrol.
Use to have V280 on W plate and with LPG pulled 30mpg in normal use. Fast as he'll for a van but have to stand on the std brakes to slow loaded at high speeds. All I can say is solid van had 6years of fun with it but watch for corrosion they are rust buckets if not looked after. Especially door bottoms, cills and bottom rear tail gate
 
Hi
Just noticed your reply, thanks. I bought a 2001 Vito 110 CDI. Full history, solid underneath...but got the '3000rpm' problem. Got a new MAF sensor and it's fine around town all day, but it only lasts 5 mins on the motorway before going into limp mode. Bugger.
