Hello! I've wanted a T2 for a good few years now and earlier this year I finally read up enough about avoiding engine bay fires to not be terrified by the idea of driving one. Unfortunately I'm not swimming in money so I've got a maximum budget of about £10,000 to play with.
I've been to see a few vans in the north (I live just outside Sheffield and there aren't a whole heap of them around here it seems) around this price point and they're generally very rusty with worrying looking undersides and iffy engines, probably needing a few thousand in repairs to get them solid again.
I'm not holding out for a rust free, perfect looking, centrefold example or anything but something that isn't a complete shed would be nice. Right hand drive with a tin top would be lovely too.
Am I expecting a bit much from my budget?
Sorry for the total newbie question, by the way.
