I have come to the conclusion that my oldish tipper needs to go, and possibly I will replace it with a more user friendly vehicle. It is a struggle for OH to get in and out of and I, basically, have to fall out of the drivers side when making my exit. Something like a Berlingo, with seats in the back but folding should I need the space, up to and including a Fiat Scudo, but I don't really want 9 seats. So where to look, normal places such as Leboncoin, autscout etc, have some offerings but with millions of KM and plenty of Euros, any suggestions for other sites greatly appreciated.

Don't forget that a van has to have a CT every year for an emissions test

I'm clinging to the hope that our 23-year old Peugeot Expert will keep going for a while longer. I suspect rust will be the final killer at the C.T. I bought it for peanuts 5 years ago from an expat returning to broken britain and it has been useful. Also available as a Citroen and a Fiat Scudo. I still miss my big old lwb Transit but rust put that to rest and all the later ones are chock full of electronic nonsense so I wouldn't have one as a gift. I understand your observation about mega mileage and crazy prices. I think a Berlingo type thing might be OK but I haven't a clue where to find one at a sensible price. It is much more difficult to import now than it once was due to Brexit.
