IT sounds crazy, but there were other factors, one being that I just
couldn't find a decent used 95. The other was that it was a desert car and
the camper equip had never been used. It was Cherry except for the miles. No
regrets here.

I guess we just have different points of view. I'd never ever buy 90000
miles for 5k no matter what!

I bought a 95EVC with 90,000 miles on it. Everyone told me not to do it. We
have had no major problems and we saved about $5k. You may have some minor
problems like we all do, but the engine in these things are great.
If it checks out OK, what is the problem?

I must report a different experience. In January 1998 I found a 1995
EuroVanCamper with 1520 miles on it. It had never been put under warranty.
I bought it at a very reduced price. We have been very satisfied. Some
corrections? Yes. The propane tank leaked; the air conditioner did not
work; the coach battery relay did not work; the skylight leaked. All were
fixed to my satisfaction under the warranty. VW did the airconditioner,
and Winnebago did the rest. Jim McCarthy

Curt,
What do you need all those troubles for? It may look like you'll save
some
$$ now, but have a really good chance to get in a lot more expensive
troubles later (they will tell you whatever you want, they will not loose
any $$). On top of that not many people have enough experience with EV,
so
even minor problem sometimes turns into a real pain. Just forget about it
and go after brand new one.
