1992 Chevrolet Van g20 review from Belgium
"Fantastic"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Chevrolet g20 explorer conversion van.
The car is maintained very good, and repaired by me.
One head gasket blown at 200000 miles, on a hot summer day pulling a heavy trailer at 65 miles an hour in the mountains, so it was probably my own fault.
Normal minor repairs (see mileage) hoses, gaskets, wheelbarrows.
General comments?
A dream car for me, living in Europe you just can't compare it to a European van, it is huge! fast! (yes fast),and extreme in every way. people are looking at it everywhere, some just ask if they can sit in the seats for a while.
Daily driver, drives on LPG (liquid petroleum gas), one third of the price and far less pollution.
Drives at high speeds, everyday,therefor it has stronger suspensions.
Most Chevrolet vans in Europe have more than 150 000 miles and they are very reliable. They are exclusive, hard to find,expensive, over here and therefor I think better maintained and taken care of.
