Brand new member, please be kind!

I will be looking to buy a Ducato van some time over the next few months and would appreciate a guide to common faults/issues/fixes. I really cannot bring myself to buy a van with a French name....

Intended use is as a mobile bed for a twice yearly trip to the Algarve, the 3 litre turbo diesel with autobox does appeal!

This will be a s/h purchase, perhaps 3/4 yo, and unless 'leggy' is not recommended, higher mileage would not worry me too much.
