Hi all!

Does anyone have experience getting parts for european van models in america? How expensive could it be if I breakdown in a european van vs one thats popular in the USA. I was thinking if its an older model, the parts might not be as expensive as the newer models, but i'm not sure how available they would be over there??

Cheers guys

Greetings!

I suspect you may have to order parts from overseas.  In the case of a breakdown, that could be the absolute pits.  If you're not planning on doing everything yourself, finding mechanics could also be a huge problem.

I would at least check to see if parts are shippable to the the US or Canada.  Sometimes there are country restrictions on shipping too.

Good Luck & keep us posted!
