i bought my first t4 last night, saw it on the ebay in north wales so decided to drive up last night after a few phone calls with the pleasant old fellow. it was a 2001 white panel van with 125K on the clock, it had a lot of work done on it recently, new engine rebuild, clutch, belts, filters...

Considering a Caravelle - LWB for the space and flexibility - but find the sleep pack isn't available - don't know why? Does anybody know why not and has anyone a good solution to making the bed big and flat without it - I will take the middle two seats out most of the time - certainly when...
