    Purchase for business use, I presume...?

    Unlikely. T5s and T6s are the latest trend amongst a certain fraternity and the amount of money they're fetching in the used market is truly insane. I know someone who spent twice what my wife did on her similar age and mileage Renault Trafic and then spent another £10k getting the bodywork done, the mechanics sorted and a custom interior so now running around in a 2008 VW Transporter they have about £20k in.

    VW vans do fetch silly money especially when converted into campervans. I see loads at music festivals usually occupied by yummy mummy,daddys and possibly a tarquin & tabitha.
