Description
Well-maintained and full of character, this 4-seater Mazda Bongo 2.5 V6 petrol automatic is ready for new adventures. With a pop-top roof, side kitchen, and rock-and-roll bed, it's a practical and fun camper with a long list of recent mechanical upgrades. Only selling due to a change in circumstances - this van has been genuinely loved and cared for.

Notes & Honest Details:
+ Aircon needs re-gassing
+ Small rust patch under on the sliding door sill (see photos) and some corrosion inside bottom left of boot door - not a structural problem.
+ Rear door sensor occasionally makes a clunk - common Bongo quirk
+ Hydraulic tappets tick slightly - garage not concerned
+ Underseal refresh was planned for this summer, but advised against (to maintain transparency, so new buyer can see without cover up)
