I was thinking at AA/RAC but I don't know thier knowledge about imported vans As it's more than 4 hours drive or train ride I bet it will be equivalent cost to a technician check if it's a lemon. If the owner knows about the battery reset that suggests that it's a parasitic drain or alternator issues I presume. I've check the MOT history and nothing to be scared off in the last years, and what was picked up and failed have invoice that the work had be done( match the miles in MOT history)

I saw a 3 litre advertised on eBay for a cheaper price compared with other, the seller told it needs a new battery but the rest it's ok. Does anyone know a garage in Southend or a mechanic that can come to check the vehicle as I'm from North West and don't know to much about the area.

Hi everyone, As my Elgrand E51 got written off by insurance, I'm widening my views also for an Alphard, most probably a 10 series.
