Look them up in vans.honestjohn.co.uk/ The Sevel built Peugeot/Citroen/FIAT is the most popular basis for campers and motorhomes, followed by Renault, followed by Ford. Crankshaft aux belt pulley failure is common on Transit 2.2s. Remember, all these vehicles are basically designed to be used as vans covering maybe 200,000 miles in 4 years, then being scrapped. They are not designed to do 3,000 miles a year for 20 years as a motorhome.
