Just looking at vans in my boredom, any one have one of these?
I hear the combos brilliant on fuel, this is what im looking for really but what sort of tanks can be carried in these? And doblos
Are the doblos medium sized vans? Cant quite tell from pics
-
Both of them are tiddlers. I'd go for something a bit more sturdy.
-
Just want something good on fuel and these vans seem pretty reasonable to buy to around a 2002 model, and they still look pretty modern vans
I do like the combos to be fair

Well you can only speak as you find and mine was a good van, people have been on here saying how crap the Vivaros and Traffics and Primastars are but i no lads that use them all and none of them would swap them, like anything else theres allways a bad apple

Even at £1 per ltr that works out at 54mpg.
My Doblo has the same engine & although economical I wouldn't go that far, especially fully loaded.

i have a vauxhall combo and i really like it, you dont need a massive van to earn money, vivaros are money pits heavy on fuel and repairs i wouldnt like to fork out on a gearbox or two,
its all about minimising expenses and maximising profits, for me i work alone and 350l does me just fine i can still hit big numbers each day
