lDV Convoy or Transit ?

Alrite there people just wondered if anyone could give me a heads up here on which they think might be a more suitable van for me..im looking into getting a van to tour round europe in and maybe hit a few festivals and ive been looking into maybe getting an ex fleet LDV convoy 400 made in 2002 ...its going for about £1300 at a reputable local dealer..but ive heard mixed things about these vans i see plenty of them about so im assuming there pretty decent...im not too fussed about creature comforts built into the motor im just after somthing thats fuel efficient and reliable as im a carpenter by trade and plan on fitting any luxuries myself! so if anyone could give me some heads up on things like what to expect in terms of fuel economy and reliability i'd appreciate that!

cheers people

Choosing the Van

OK OK

So, i have finally decided to do it!(Sorry Mum)

Im going to get a van and convert it.  Budget £8k. Van and conversion, so roof is out for now.  But....What van do i get? So many to choose from.  Vivaro, T4, Maxus, Sprinter. 

Come on guys, i know its a nightmare of a question, but what are your thoughts?

i would suggest a high top

i would suggest a high top Transit- crap years ago but really good build for the money. If you can stretch the wallet a little go for a sprinter or LT
