Just joined and just bought a Bongo.
I partially blame my mother as she has a Bongo and has led me to the darkside.

I used to be a VW T2 owner in years gone by and was responsible for it's restoration and pimpage. However, since then I have opted for the sensible family option...but secretly dreamed of owning another camper or van.
