I have been a member of this forum since 2009 when I bought my 2nd T4 van.
My first T4 van was '02 9 seater auto window van 'KOMBI' I bought new for service at a Liqour store and short wine tours of the Hunter Valley. I sold it a couple of years later with 38,000 Km on the clock and it was trouble free. It did not hold its value!
My 2nd T4 van was a '96 manual window van with 196,000 on the clock. It came with after market seats/belts (which I onsold). It did good service as a tradie van (2 seater barn door) I sold it with ~230,000 on the clock after my daughter was born. A few minor issues on the way but very reliable during my 6 years of ownership. I needed something I could fit a child seat into. An '03 Hilux dual cab 2x4 became my daily drive.
I really missed being able to throw a motorbike in the back etc etc. So I am soon to take possession of a '99 T4 syncro 2.5 petrol 8 seat window van with ~160,000 on the clock. I am excited! I look forward to the odd weekend away and just the general usability of a van. I play with motorbikes, my mates are sick of me borrowing their trailers!! I have been doing lots of syncro T4 research. This forum is a great resource.
