That's like saying you shouldn't put 'Window cleaner' on the side of your van.

Your van should have enough security to stop any would be thief.

Darran, you can get a decent one for £1500 and theyve got a large payload (1400 kg) and a huge space in the back . A couple of carpet fitters I know use them because they can fit a roll of carpet in and shut the rear door
