Thought about going w f p early in the year but never did due mainly to cost.
Looking at it again seen a Peugeot partner max load is 625 would this be ok with 350l tank and all other items u need.

I've just put a Partner on the road for my son. Have a 350l tank in the back and was concerned about being overweight, so took it to a weighbridge with half a tank of water (roughly 175 litres) and a hosereel in the back and my son sat in the drivers seat.
It weighed 1520 kg and the gvw is 1750 kg, so that leaves around 200 kg for more water, pole, trad gear etc.
Mind you, I wouldn't want him driving around right on the limit, so will only carry 250-300 litres.

John, I have a peugot partner with a Brodex,250 litre system available soon. It is N older van but very reliable, only two previous owners. Would be a cheap way for you to get into wfp?

Fancy a Peugeot Partner Myself, whats the biggest pole you can get in one of those??

I have a superman 44 but also an extreme 25 with four extensions so can reach up to 55ft.
Mechanics really rate these little vans.

Lol as an ex peugeot mechanic I bought mine on the strength of the old 1.9d engine, back when peugeot made solid engines, mines a p reg and still solid and reliable, I got a 400 ltr upright in mine and it handles it easy, doesn't look like its on its bottom at all although I'm not sure how it would legal it would be on the weigh bridge.
If it didn't have a weight limit I think it would easy take a 500 ltr, mine doesn't even have a turbo and it pulls well enough.
Just got a 22 pole in mine but would easily take a 30 etc.
I'm going for a transit next aa I Want to build a crew cab section and a bigger tank but these little vans will never let you down if you find a good one,watch the rear axle bearings on the torsion bar.
