    VW Campervan vs Mercedes Campervan
    one thing to consider is there are far more converted VWs than vitos so there are far more after market parts about ..bike racks and the like… plus more info on forums/local meets/rallys and stuff…..unfortunately as I’ve mentioned before on here the prices are mental just now for them .. 🙁

    the vw will defo hold its value better than the vito but if you can find a good one cheap in the first place it means you’ll get a better van for the money and if your planning on keeping it for a while may not be such a bad thing seeing as all campervans retain there value much better than an equivalently priced van or car…. be aware though the early shaped vito is terrible for rust…as for the reliabillity of the T5 …me and 4 of my mates have been running them for the last few years and none of us has had any major problems…
    though at £15000 for a converted van your probably looking at late T4s which are bit more van like to drive but still a cracking vehicle…with these vans being so similiar I’d go for which ever you can get that suits you best with regarding the convertion…ie…layout/heating system/storage space.. and condition and specification of base vehicle..aircon/electric windows/mirrors….
