All sorted now thanks to CB.. And it is clear

£2700 gets you a new BiTurbo CFCA engine form TPS, just make sure he blanks off and maps out the EGR as that the cause of the problem.

Im looking to buy a VW Transporter that is currently on Irish plates. It was a UK (N.I) registered van, then went to southern Ireland for a short period. I do know the original UK reg no but that does not exist any longer, so if it can be done using the chassis no or maybe the old UK number id happily throw one of you guys a pint or two.
Thanks

Legally I dont know where you and he stand. Morally Id have just given it back, Twat or not there is nothing wrong with good customer relations.

Seems a tad harsh to me, a few days holding the car isn't the end of the world. If you have held it for a couple of weeks then fair enough keep the deposit.

Id love to find vans with no VAT. A no VAT van means VAT margin for me which is a fair difference in my favour to what the VAT man takes.

I have a bike policy and trade policy, Bike insurance has 8 years NCB and trade is 6 years. You cant use a bike NCB to trade policy. However if I had a bike claim then my trade policy would be effected!! It only transfers when it suits them

Well I know what to do if I ever find myself in court.. Just start to cry!

I would if someone asked for one

I use quickbooks, I found a lot of it gobble de gook and made a good few mistakes. I just keep it simple. Photograph and upload receipts then match to banking. I create quotes and invoices, my account tried to get me to do Classes which allowed me to bunch all expenses to a particular camper. But as i tend to buy in bulk this became hard to start breaking down.
I use excel to work out my profit per job, how much I need too put aside for VAT, Tax , NI and how much I'm allowed to keep.

My Mrs vetoed that for me years ago. Said my Firestorm was ‘ridiculous and the Speed triple ‘noisy and pointless’. The MV ‘how much?!’ Women.
All I have now is a perhaps pathetic ‘87 MZ125 my uncle left me that is mint but unrideable (1500 miles from new).
‘What have you got? 996?
She has a horse so cant say a darn thing. I have a tweaked 1199s, do the odd Euro trackday. Got three days at Aragon in about 6 weeks.

Our mechanic does four or five T4's a year (he doesn't trust the newer T5 & T6 stuff) and whilst they're good they're not up to your kind of standard...bit of a different price point though.
How do you find these for reliability?
Do VW do a petrol engined Transporter yet?
Personally I've never had an issue, like any brand & model you will always have a the Friday afternoon ones that. Never done a TSI, VW have stopped doing them.

Just now, trade vet said:Wonderfull Mr C,you will be hiring them out next !
Absolutely no chance, Its a world of pain I'll avoid.
I did look in to it, with the idea of leasing brand new vans, build over the winter, rent out over the summer then sell in September and pay off the finance. Before we even get in to renting to the general public the insurance is very costly, You need an emergency van spare just incase one gets trashed, short term leases dont give you the V5 so I couldnt change it to a camper on the logbook

All Seasons do some nice vans.

Not at all, there is now three of us, Im booked up till start of May. T6 came up at the right Money, offering it on here to see if anyone fancies a go.

Just bought a T6 SWB on a 65 plate 47k miles. It will be built to a high standard and with quality components, Crash tested Bed, Double seat swivel base and Poptop roof, Dometic appliances, No MDF or Chipboard furniture, No cheap crap or cut corners £22500 + the Vodka.
I can go as lairy or as mild as you want on the colour scheme, (Bright colours and glosses = more wow factor)
Dont bother trying to get CAP guide on these things, buyers are totally lead by their hearts, I've never chipped on the price of done vans or a conversion. £29995 on a pitch at the start of summer is realistic

Just had to put a brand new engine + clutch + dmf + freshly serviced turbo's in to a 180 biturbo Transporter.
Not sure there is much change from £4k.
