Dude what.... a creatively produced video AND superb information???? I’m bout to make a second KZread account because I want to subscribe twice!!

Nice concise and handy vid 👌👍

Karl, great vid! I'd add a few more issues to think about. It's not common but it has happened, always visit the van at the address it's registered too, ask for DL, V5 and check engine chassis match. Also if they ask for cash on collection, this is an alarm bell. Imagine carrying 10k with you to be met by a believed seller, who robs you, that has happened. I'm ex police and vaguely recall a nasty robbery some years back. If its Genuine then a bank transfer is the safest option. Try to avoid carrying cash. Also whilst I'm on it. If you asked if finance is outstanding, they cannot legal own the vehicle. Walk, or if its easily remedied, ask for the finance company and arrange to pay them the settlement. If this is not possible and you buy it, good luck in trying to avoid the liability at some later stage. If they don't pay it off. Hope this helps.

Very informative! Thanks for sharing your experience.

Love your down to earth approach. I'm toying with the idea of getting a van and converting, so this vid was really useful. Will probably watch any more by you, thanks!

Thanks Karl! Buying a van soon so I've written down all your tips 😊

you sir, are a genius! Thanks so much. Common sense isnt always common ! great vid

All good tips.

Thanks Karl for all the tips and advise.

Going full time vanlife this year and this was very helpful and really well shot!

Brilliant video, concise and to the point. Very helpful indeed, exactly what I was looking for, thank you very much indeed!

Update uuiu

Love the effects, especially the in-van camera... Thanks for the advice, not in the market at the moment but might do be in the future.

Great video, I’m not likely to make my own camper van or even buy a van but Karl’s videos are great and I always watch them.

Great advice thanks

great video, stright to the point and great information! thank you

So true. I felt I really scored with mine. 2021 Custom Limited. Perfect condition, 8,000miles and best of all No VAT! Couldn’t have chosen better and I was looking at another van at the time when it popped up on my EBay feed!

This was really professionally done, I liked how the videography went ❤️ and the information given was great! I’ll be happy to go check out some vehicles myself before I contact a mechanic (still would not trust myself entirely before buying 😂) the tips were a huge thing -confidence building for someone who has no knowledge about cars 😅

Any tips on a good van for £1000 that's all I've got. Big up from Scotland 👍 and keep up the good work mate

Super good 👍 Thanks man 🙏

A bit of milky oil on the filler cap can just be a result of too many short trips and a cold climate, not always the dreaded failed gasket.

Very good honest vid. Thank you .

Great video. Thank you 👍

excellent video thank you

Good video Karl 👍

I wish I was in the UK or EU buying a van. Here in US if you need a used van you're basically in the toilet, it's full of brown stuff and it's overflowing.

what great vids, one man, his dog and a shadow with a stick. This is the second vid I watched and they are great keep it up.

Spot on mate thax

Great Video, nice editing you forgot about your shadow lol , great information

Hey mate, love the video and thanks for the tips! Just one question, what’s your thoughts about mileage when buying a van? I’m looking at swb transporters and transits at the minute and a lotta stuff around the £8-10k mark has done 150k plus miles. Which for me coming from the world of bikes and cars seems like an awful lot! I was trying to find something under 100k but that doesn’t seem doable. What’d you think?

nice one.

Karl are you Henry Coles pal ? Great video!

This was massively helpful. Thank you 😊

Great vid man thanks! One question: These dealers that offer nationwide delivery, how does that work then? When do I pay, and how do I manage to see it before paying? The reason i'd opt for nationwide delivery is that it opens me up to a larger selection, and I don't have transport.

It's been a year hows the search going?

I think I've used ebay since it first came online in the UK so how the hell am I only finding out about the completed listings tip now lol.

Thanks for the tips Karl, wish I had seen it before I bought a T5 Transporter last year, that swiftly went back to the seller, lots of hidden problems!!! The plonker still owes me a good wedge of cash, ignores my messages the coward!!!

oh dear

If the buyer has NO car/van knowledge at all and they want extra piece of mind is it reasonable to take it to a garage and get it checked over?

dislike ... not interested in how to search for a good van .... but a van for conversion... so no modes comparation and advantage and disadvantage between them
