Mazda Bongo

[hockeypuck]

Hey
We're thinking of getting a Mazda Bongo and would appreciate your experiences. I've searched the threads on here and there are a lot of people who recommend it in terms of the number of children and buggies it can fit in. There are only 4 of us but we wondered if anyone here uses it to camp?

We're considering selling our family car and getting one so we can go on lots of weekends and nights away while the children are still small enough to enjoy it. They seem much cheaper than VWs for a smiliar (though less stylish) product.

Tell me your stories :D
Thanks

Where do you live? My family in the UK are trying to get rid of one for a friend - who bought it to export to a country who then tried to charge 300% import duty so now it's on the market.

Friends have one, they love it. They have an awning for it, and went travelling as a family for a few months.

Thanks for the replies - really sorry that I forgot to return to this thread when work got busy.

Anyone else with any tips?
