There used to be a dealer in Newport (not sure if they are still there).
Feel free to PM me if you find one in Newport (before you buy...)
There was also one in a small town North of Newport but neither Adrian or I can remember the name of the place
Chappie was quite helpful too.
Madmile (who comes on here) does beautiful conversions and is somewhere in South Wales.
Good luck
Sarah

We bought ours from Churcham's in Gloucestershire - we've had it 2
1/2 years - no problems - I part-ex'd my Mercedes A-Class for the Bongo - got a REALLY good deal for it too!

Hi there, dealer in Newport is Gwent Motorhomes and the one in Caerphilly is St Ilans. Madmile usually has one or two Bongos for sale as well I would try him before anyone he's a top bloke and knows his stuff. His website has his details Celtic Motorhomes. Regards Georgey.

great news, well done. Just the longest week ever to wait now then
Is it this one? Looks a cracking clean example...wheel arches too
Throw some more of your own piccies up when you get it home to show us all.

Thats the one....
Can't wait!
Does that seem a fair price with the mileage/condition? Also getting the timing belt change - another 10k left in it, but thought best do it now.
I most certainly will put some pics up
Best get buying some bits!

Looks great

I had to wait two months for mine but instead of buying it from Churcham (5 miles away) I bought mine direct from Japan

doh but back then I had never seen or even heard of a Bongo
Good luck and most of all have fun
