Subject: Honest question for the group

I'm a total newbie and don't want to make a mistake. Got a chance to get a
93 MV hardtop weekender. 5 speed 5 cylinder. Had it inspected by a VW
mechanic and nothing glaringly wrong. It does have a bad gas gauge and temp
gauge and the mechanic says these are quite hard to come by and I should
plan on dealing with it for a while. I can probably get it for $5500. Since
I have only owned TDI beetle and golfs and never a van of any kind, much
less a VW, I am hard pressed to tell if this is a decent rig for simple car
camping and road tripping around the PAC NW in the spring/summer/fall. Any
advice is greatly appreciated from this community.
