Not altogether , but just downsizing after a string of muppets causing me grief !
Not sure which way to go , sell van and system , sell van system and some work , or keep and try again.
What are your thoughts on what i should do ?
Any ideas on what i can expect for the van and system ?
R plate combo , not power steering , bit heavy on the arms !
125 k on the clock , 7 months mot 1 month tax , tidy condition , for age anyway , 1700 D isuzu lump.
350 L tank , 85 amp battery , 100 psi shurflo , varistream 2 , 6x18 vessel , 85 M microbore , downstairs pole , 24 foot hybrid xtel , all in good order .
No ladders or trad gear included.
All thoughts appreciated , thanks guys

i am intrested in renting some work off u if you wanna rent it out
-
Where are you for starters in cornwall , i say this as the work that is in question is not too well priced and bit one here one there kind of thing !
I dont need to get rid of it but if im selling the van its an ideal time to streamline what i have got on the books to make my time more lucrative , at the same time its a bonus for a newbie or for anybody who is already in the area

am near st austell, but seem to be picking more work up bodmin camelford way, as was looking at moving that way, but am always intrested in work, as plymouth is only 45 mins from me
why what u got there, email me at bmwc@live.com if you dont want to put it on here
-
As i mentioned , the work is bitty , £6 and £7 houses mainly , never got around to upping the prices as i was more interested in getting the commercial side sorted !
The work has been on the books for 6 years , so its well established , all the custies are very good , but the commercial side is not for grabs , i mean there is a part of the round that pulls in £220 for a day one man only , this could be in with the jetisoned work , not sure yet.
All work is in Plymouth and Ivybridge.

am intrested, why dont u rent it out and then sell it in the future if you want, or try and sell it with the van and see what u get
by the sounds of it you sound like you want to stick to commercial and get rid of domestic, if that is the case, i am intrested in your domestic
-
No no , commercial is a bonus to me , i would never go all commercial , ive seen it come and go the next week all too often , i have lots of prime domestic which i would never sell .
Its just a case of having way too much work to keep on top of with just the one van , and im fed up of working stupid amounts of hours in one week to get through it all .
I will sit down and work out what i need to sell or rent out in more depth , i will e mail you a list when its sorted
Cheers Rich
-
no probs, just email me, i have just found a lad who is a good wc, but when we go out together we are ripping through the work, so am looking at get as much as possible in, i know a few people in plymouth so getting extra water shouldnt be a problem lol
-
hi if blue monkey dosnt have it rent or buy then i would be interested im in liskeard cheers john.
-
boldy, did u buy that work on ebay?
-
no i see it vanished though you didnt bother in the end then.
-
ive got to admit i rent almost all my work i really need to build on my own but have never cavassed in my life so after my hol i gonna catch up then give it a go i think what puts me off is there is so many w/c round here they probibably sick of them knocking
-
i may be interested in the van if the price is right
-
What do you think its worth ?
Open Q to anybody who cares to reply , i only want to recoup the money spent as its the mother in law i owe ;D
Rich
-
i'd really only be interested in just the van and the tank fitted nothing else would be needed as i have everything else already,
end of the day its a old R reg combo van, you tell me how much you would want for it
-
I would say its worth around £800 The van cannot be worth much over £400 maybe 500 quid
-
Chopsie , is that £800 for the van and tank , or the full monty ?
Rich
-
130 quid tank and a 20 quid set of ratchet straps isnt gonna add 3-400 quid onto the value of the van,
got 500 quid here for the van with the tank fitted if you wanna sell
-
If you aren't in a blinding hurry I reckon you could put it in for a grand (all in) and get something close to that.
It's not a bad price for someone to be able to drive a way and start work the next day is it?
If I was buying I would think - hmmm old van with 7 months ticket worth £500; system bits would cost £500 new and I'd spend a day putting it in ... it looks neat from the piccies. Yeah I'd chuck a grand at that if it all worked/drove right.
