Like it says in the title. I don't have the time or interest to spend months researching the minutiae of vans and engine specs, I just need something that will serve me well and look cool. T5 preferably, budget up to about £17k including conversion.

What next, van nerds? (no offence etc)

In reply to Frank the Husky:

Wheel Base, Hight top, Rising roof, Layout?

In reply to Darren09: Who knows...not very helpful I know, but that's me. I guess a rising top and a normal wheelbase might be about right but the rest is down to the designer chappie.

I would think twice about the usual VW /side kitchen layout and go for a rear kitchen twin single bed arrangement.

In reply to Frank the Husky: You don't say where your from, but this garage in North Wales usually has a nice selction of T5's.

In reply to Frank the Husky:

Are you getting a van because your gear packing skills have down hill even further since out trip to Devon and you in fact can't get any of it in a car now?

In reply to Frank the Husky:

I spent the last 5 months looking for a T5 in the spec I wanted at the right price. We wanted a 2010 onwards LWB 6 speed with aircon and tailgate with the crucial no VAT. Finally got it just before Christmas from a private seller.

I was checking, Autotrader, Ebay, Pistonheads and E&M daily.
