Bongo Fury

Hi

My beloved Bongo has now been recovered from France, having broken down while travelling, and I suspect the Timing Belt is the culprit.

Any ideas on how much I could expect to sell this for?

The rest of the van is in good shape with no rust.

Located in Bournemouth.

Cheers

Is it not worth sticking a belt on it first?
You may want keep it then anyhow would be worth more as a runner.

Thanks for the reply Bongolia.

I’m reluctant to spend much more cash on it but am having a second and third opinion.

As the timing belt failed as I was driving through France, I expect that the damage is pretty bad and to get it running will be costly.

Any ideas from where I can buy a timing belt?

There a non-interference engine, but some one has measured it and its very fine but provided there are no dropped valves then you should be OK.

Figured I’d provide an update; as open ended posts can be annoying.

Advice on here was good; had a new timing belt fitted by a bongo specialist and the Bongo is running well again with no other damage.

Looking forward to getting out in it again late next year

Excellent news and yes feedback is always appreciated as otherwise its difficult to pass on the info. with certainty!

Splendid news, and (as Geoff says) a very valuable update.

Thankyou.
