Looking for advice on purchasing a VW T5 camper, can't seem to find any T5 buyers guides?

Considering using a company to buy the van and convert it for me, but there seems to be lots of conversion companies, how to choose a good one from a duffer? Or is it just easier to buy one 2nd hand which has already been converted?

T5s are not that reliable, plenty of people wish they never owned them, Camper and workhorse vans.
Anything in particular wrong with them? I no to avoid DSG (had it on my Golf R32 and didn't like it), and to check for flywheel issues, but there seems to be a lot of vans out there with lots of miles on them?
