Hi I have resurrected my old blog which I lost when life got in the way. It is about all my camping but also the reason I want another bongo - all the abroad trips were in the bongo. I hope you find it interesting. I'm adding to it as I go along.

Hi, as some of you may be aware from my posts I am now considering another bongo. Looking to see as many different layouts and ideas as possible. Any Scottish or Northern meets planned where we could come and view and chat?

Update. Not a Bongo is now Could be a bongo. We are going on a road trip to view the New Dawn Conversion to see if that layout with both swivel seats would suit us better than the side conversion we had previously. I've really been doing my homework this time round - have been getting quotes for tra...

I've just had a look on the Jal Import site and they do passenger and driver seats as swivel and extra wide beds. It's actually getting very close to my ideal campervan any opinions on Jal Imports? I spoke with the guy today and he sounded a bit assertive!

Thanks. I know what I want is something smallish and not fitted with loads of units. I would also like the front seats to be able to swivel round. When we go camping everything we need except for the tent can fit in 2 plastic boxes with lids so we don't need much more except a bed. I'd rather have t...

Is it possible to have swivel seats in bongo? When we had ours some Yeats ago I don't think it was but maybe now? If so, any pic of conversions with seats swivelled? Thanks

So, still doing my homework and still not sure. But I'm in no hurry and want to make the right decision given that I'll be spending a load of dosh and want my campervan to last a long time. Ive visited a dealer and saw the Alphard converted and unconverted and am happy with the size and the look of ...

Thanks Flanners. You answered my next question re fuel consumption - hubby not keen and thinks it will be far worse than diesel. 30 mpg sounds good - is that typical? Our last diesel bongo was about 24mpg.
I should rename this thread from Not a Bongo to Maybe a Bongo lol

All of the Bongos I'm looking at are petrol - oh says they will be thirstier and would want diesel. Did bongo stop producing diesel?

I'm getting confused. I'm now leaning towards the later bongos.......I know what I'm getting with a bongo. And I'm thinking with a basic conversion we could have more room. Dawn Conversions have a couple of crackers in

Im also wondering how it works if an older vehicle is first registered in the UK when it is imported after 2017? Does anyone know?

Thanks Bob.

Hi, just read the link. It looks like cars pre 2017 are taxed under the old system.

Hi, I've done nothing but Google the last day or 2 and still keep coming back to the Toyota Alphard, Hyundai i800 and Mercedes Veto. I've got to say none of them get glowing reviews but neither did the Bongo when I bought mine and I loved it for 6 happy years. I'm now thinking of buying a van/mpv an...
