Hi sorry but I dont see your set up being worth much second hand.
K reg Sherpa £500 tops

Tank new £150
Pressure washer new £500
Henry new £90
Genny new £300

New costs £1040 + vat = £1222

9 months old you would need to knock off at least 25% so £916 + van + chemicals

£1500 the lot

I know I can get these items at this price some may pay more some may pay less this is only my opinion.

Good luck hopefully someone will see its worth as an operational package.

Cheers
George

In that case I would put it up on ebay with a start price of say ~£1000/1100 to get a bit of interest at first, then keep my fingers crossed..You can always put a reserve on of £1400(ish) - people will bid more when the reserve has gone and they know they will get it if they win the auction... + you will get offers to sell off ebay..(ahem) 8)
