Welcome to the world of Bongos!

Bet you cant wait to pick yours up - I know the fortnight we had to wait was such a long 2 weeks!!

Your best bet is to keep reading the forums, and ask any questions you might have.
It's a friendly place to visit and learn about your new motor, and with so many experienced owners on here - you'll find answers to pretty much anything Bongo related.

Best of luck to you and roll on pick up day!!

so far so good, averaging 28 to the gallon, and still enjoying the drive, its a pure MPV , we have the gas stove and sleping bags but as yet not had the weather. That is when I hope it will come into its own. Had a few days out walking and its nice to get back into and open the flask and relax, feet up. Interseting the veg oil siuation but still considering the options.
