Buy a new one and stop all this messing about. Its cheaper than you think in the long run.

Hi
What about this? A bit older but looks ok. Ebay 180610805001
or
Ebay 270645434608
or
Ebay 120668879600 - definitely not 120bhp - expect 90. very low mileage. I like the colour but you could hide it with a van wrap or good signage - excellent price.

Have you seriously investigated buying a new one?  Don't dismiss the idea out of hand.

try www.specialistcars.net   just got a transit from there,around the three grand mark on an 03 plate full 12 months mot/belts changed/serviced and undersealed,with warrenty-oh plus re-sprayed where needed,worth a look-i'm very happy with it even the father-in law's just bought one from them just by seeing mine-ps costs me around £100 per month for three years on finance-check out their warrenty on vans its pretty unique-the above work to the van came as standard didn't have to haggle
