Buying a Mazda Bongo
I have a budget of £7-8k and am interested in buying a converted Mazda Bongo - there are petrol/diesel and manual and automatic versions.
I seem to be able to get an N or P reg with a nice looking conversion. Apart from cam belt and service history what other points should I be checking and are manual vs auto, petrol vs diesel - what would be best option?

Don't know enough about them to advise you, other than to buy as new as possible, and be aware that CO2 tax is based on the date of first UK registration so is likely to be very high.
