New roof motors vs used

Hello everyone. Wanted to get some advise please. My roof motors need to be replaced and the 'new ones' are very expensive, the second hand ones a lot cheaper, but they all say "tested and working OK", which could mean that they could work for a short period of time? Is it worth then buyin...

Re: Stiff Steering when turning Diesel manual Transmission Bongo

Thank you all, and I apologise for the novice mistake. I kept looking under the passengers seat. Novice mistake :wink: . The reservoir is almost at full so will look into the two universal joints. Cheers

Hi everyone, hoping someone can shed some light.

Roof Cracked

Hello. Bought my first Bongo 2 weeks ago and was getting ready to camp on it for the first time, but unfortunately the roof cracked (see pictures) on both sides. I wanted to ask the members if this is fixable or if it needs to be replaced? I rang a Bongo garage and the quoted £700 to replace and fit...
