Isle of Wight

[Deepdale]

Good morning Funsters,

I'm still looking for my elusive first van. I'm a mechanical idiot so, I'm doing the groundwork after reading Jim's book, then I want an experienced opinion before parting with money: Robert Gale in Paignton has just saved me from buying a money pit.

I've found a contender on the Isle of Wight, can anybody recommend somebody on the island to do a pre purchase/hab check? It has had a lot off work done on the brake systems according to the MOT history, and I'm not sure whether to be reassured or alarmed by that.

I'll try to attach the ad but I'm worse with technology than I am with engines.
Many thanks
Ceri

Good luck I do hope this one works out for you. Fingers and toes firmly crossed.

Oh @big map this is hellish! I've no know how, a limited budget and I hate making decisions... I feel like the brexit secretary

Righto northwards!
I'm waiting for an email about the Hymer, and I'm going to send a motorhome mechanic (when I find 1) to check this one in Sutton Coldfield.
If I achieve nothing else, at least I'm keeping motorhome mechanics busy at a quiet time of the year lmao!
