98 to 09 models take 525 to 625 kg depending on the model

Which is pretty pants really as a lot of vans in that class are 600 to 700 kg

Anyway, add up the 350 kg of water plus 50 kg for tank plus reel 60 kg for sundries and some fuel that leaves you somewhere between  65 kg and 165 kg for yourself +1
(10 stone to 25 stones)

Hope this helps  :)

I'd get a 250 litre,fill van up with your normal gear and go to weighbridge,find out how much water you can carry then just fill to that amount.

I was 40kg over but had gas bottle,2 x ladders etc.
