t2 or t25?

[cooky]

I will be looking for a camper soon but cannot decide between the t2 or t25?

T2 bay is better looking, more "cool" etc. but are they feasible as a daily driver?

Is a T25 ok as a daily driver - even in winter?

Looking to spend 4-5k

as a diehard long time Splitty freak I have to say that since covering and seeing and learning about vw buses post 1967 that all versions have something going..it comes down to what turns you on..
me? I have seen some luvverly T25s ... and I love the westy Berlin .. and crawled round a Bilbo T5 .. mmmm ...and as for SO 32 :eek:

Yep, it'll probably happen.
Id suggest getting one with a receipted recon engine, or budget to spend the grand or so on getting a recon yourself, and then committ to annual full coolant/anti freeze changes.
