Hi Guys,
I have been thinking about this for a little while recently, I do a lot of mountain biking but would like to go further away to try out different trails and have weekends away etc, however this is hard as I can't really afford hotels etc (I could get a tent but I'm not keen + would like to go with friends and family too) I was thinking about getting a short wheel based van like the Renault Traffic, there is room in there for a good few bike + plus a mattress for kipping on (I know it's not exactly legal but It's not hurting anyone)
Anyway, I was wondering what use thought as I would be selling my car too do so meaning the van would be my main mode of transport.
Plus, does anyone have any personal experiance of the Traffic to give me an Idea of what It's like plus how much I would be able to get a good one for (A few years old)
I'm worried that If it was a works van then It will have been uncared for so might be unreliable, my dad had one for a few years and he loved it
what other van types are there that are similarly priced etc? ... I'm not interested in a transit! they are far too noisy inside and far too expensive!
Thanks Guys!
P.S It's just an Idea for now! lol
