meevan has gone to a new home
a very sad day today as i waved meevan off to her new home.
thankfully she has gone to a very nice couple who will treasure her like i did.
now looking for a smaller home with a floor based gear shift or automatic with easy steering that can be used as a day vehicle
i could well be out of luck for an autosleeper, however, i would like to stay on as a member if that's ok?

Re: meevan has gone to a new home
If you really are after a "day van" then a Mezan will have facilities that you are never likely to use!
In your situation (if you really do just want a day van) I would recommend looking at the Japanese import day vans - they are all RHD, almost all automatic and they are way, way cheaper than any decent Mezan. The main reason why they are so cheap is that the Japanese car taxation system has a very high cost penalty for vehicles that are more than a few years old. We've looked at Nissan Legrand, Toyota Regius/Granvia and Mazda Bongos - they can all be had at great prices, and they are all primarily based on the mechanicals of common cars. As you would expect, they are car-like to drive, with all the safety gear (e.g. ABS) and power steering.

Re: meevan has gone to a new home
thanks mojo,
i have looked at several small vans and have plumped for a romahome, which i happened upon locally - it's in fab condition in & out.
ok, not quite auto sleeper standard this time, however, it suits my present needs.
