Hi,
A friend wants to buy one of these at the weekend. I have not seen or driven it yet, but it has done 250K miles.
Mechanically, I know what I am doing, but am more used to cars and have never worked on a Transporter before.

I was hoping people could share their experience of common things that go wrong and expensive things to look out for before buying it, or hopefully tell me the engines are bullet proof and can do a million miles.

Many thanks.
