We were originally going to buy an already converted one but that was going be £23k plus. We want a rear kitchen which is a bit cheaper so the whole conversion will come in at about £8k. That gives us a good budget for a base car so we should be able to get a really good, low miles example. The temptation with this one was that it was near and available. I am really excited to get one as soon as possible so was rushing a bit!

Now you've said it yes, the rear is a mess!

Lots of great information there, thank you. I'm not now considering this one but I will definitely factor in the above for any more suitable ones that come up! I do love forums for finding knowledgeable people who are willing share info and helps others. Thanks again all for you help and advice! I will post again if I find any other alphards and will eventually post about the process of getting the one I buy converted.

You are absolutely right about the door colour. I thought it was the lighting but picture 27 shows it from another angle and the colour is definitely off. Thank you for pointing it out.

Thanks for all responses! The point about sunroofs is a very good one as I will be getting a pop top. I might go and have a look anyway but am a bit put off. No not currently an owner, I chose a random one as it insisted on me saying I owned one to sign up! I hopefully will be soon though and will update accordingly.

Thanks for your response 👍 They have an on site mot station and promise an advisory free mot. So they will do all of that assuming it hasn't been done already. Oil leaks can be difficult to sort out on some cars hence why I am worried mainly about. I don't spend the same again on a conversion to then find it's got an incurable oil leak or a damaged engine further down the line!

Hi all I am looking to buy an alphard to then convert into a camper. This one is fairly local to me so I am going to have a look: https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202310022576807?sort=price-asc&advertising-location=at_cars&include-delivery-option=on&make=Toyota&model=Alphard&page=3&postcode=rg402ad&fromsra The reg is bw07tsy I have two questions: It was imported in July and is now up for sale again which seems a bit strange. Does anyone on here know anything about it? At its last mot it had a oil leek as a advisory, is this common on the 3.0 and is it anything to worry about? Any comments are really appreciated.
