Ive just got an o3 plate vauxhall bombo, red mint, only 35.000 miles!!!
just wondered the best cheap type of onboard r.o system van set up?
any advice taken, thanks.
-
Hi i am also looking for a new van!! what did you pay for yours and what weight?size of tank do you want in it? When you bought it did you ask what weight could it carry?
-
I paid £1.900 for it! just polished it and now she's gleaming! ive got a trolley w.f.p set up at the mo with only dual d.i vessal purifying!
so iwas thinking of mounting my trolley some how ( any ideas?) and then just running a 100 m 1/2 inch hose from a hose lock connector on the back doors ( for security)
yeah not sure what weight it will carry yet but i use trad for groundfloors so i dont need too much water!
thanks.

how much water do you carry GB?im gettin a pure freedom trolley and 12 25lt barrels(300L).
are you sure the vans not been "clocked".its very easy to do these days.
go to MOT INFO.COM and type in the mot serial number and check the history(only goes back to 05)but you will be able to check milage and what the van failed on the mots! ;) ;D ;D

i paid £1400 for a 2000 kangoo van (126000 miles! ::))
it was from a van dealers though with 12 months mot/3 months tax and a private plate(worth about £400-£500).
ive shelled out £600 on it(new rear axle/cambelt/exhaust)and ive only had it 3 weeks!hopefully itll last me a couple of years!
how much water are you getting through with wfp tops/trad bottoms for say 6 hours a day "on the glass"?

If you have only had it 3 weeks and it's developed those faults then why have you paid out £600, surely you got some warranty or have rights for a refund?

Thats grat info mate thanks! and yeah the mileage adds up seems to anyway!
-
by the way how can you tell if its been clocked? thanks again.

john it was sold to me with NO WARRANTY!it didnt develop those faults!i went over speed bumps too fast!snapped the exhaust driving it off forecourt then snapped the torsion bar in back axle last friday!
ill be taking it easy over the bumps from now on!i changed the cambelt as a matter of course i always do when i get a new van/car.
so altogether its cost me 2grand.if it lasts me 2-3 years with a few hundred every year spent on it to keep it on the road then itll work out ok.
its in great nick for age and the guy at the garage said its been well serviced.he wanted it for himself!! ;) ;D ;D
if you check the milage on each of the mots from previous years and see if they tally up GB!simple!! ;) ;D ;D
-
Oh right, didn't realise that was the case.
Good site for checking mots though :)
-
in one year it only did 3 miles!!!
-
but in that year it didnt need anything for the mot either so...?!?!?
-
so do you think its clocked?
-
sorry problem solved i was reading it wrong! no its legit from what i caan tell !
