Unsure mate but i dont think i would risk 100k. 70 sounds more realistic. My van is a coming up 150k and the last owner had it done just over 140 so i would be thinking better safe than sorry but then you are the one buying so ask and if unsure then walk as look on ebay, there is thousands for sale up and down the country. Im sure you will get what you want as long as money is not burning holes in the pockets.

I've got a 2001 Sucdo 1.9D (no turbo) it does have a few little niggles like the fuel gauge doesn't work, but the fuel light does, it's good enough for me until I can afford to investigate the fault, and the odometer went off last week, as far as I can tell that's a common fault on these vans. Just had the timing belt changed, I bought mine from an estate clearance and it didn't have any service history, timing belt was changed at 136,000 last week at a cost of £240 including a new water pump... On the up side though the van only cost me £500. The family were just looking to get rid of everything.

Budgeting for around another £500 on repairs so a reasonable van for a total of £1000

Thanks!

I was thinking of maybe taking the seats out of a Ulysses, I'm not bothered about if they match or swivel, but something a bit more comfy would be nice! The padding has completely collapsed in the drivers seat base, that couple with a sensitive Arse  lol am I right in thinking the the Ulysses is exactly the same vehicle? Just the car version?

Hi

I need some help, I've just bought a 2001 scudo to do a camper conversion. It's got a bench seat and the drivers seat is made from concrete and hate, does anyone have a single passenger seat and a more comfy driver seat? Preferably a height adjustable one? Or recommend anywhere I can pick one up from reasonably cheaply? My local scrap yards only seem to have builders vans with bench seats!
