Title: What to price my Combo van at ?
Post by: Ian101 on October 31, 2014, 12:13:38 pm
Will be upsizing van soon and trying to see what its worth ... so i can decide what to go for next

All phone numbers / name / website on wrap can be removed so leaves basic wrap for your contact details to go on top.

Fitted with 500 litre tank (not caged) and no i dont fill it to top  :o ... twin shurflow and controllers with one being a split relay to charge when running ... 135k with jan mot


is it worth £2500 ish or maybe more ??

Its neat and has a system fitted I would have thought £ 3000 would be good depending on miles.

i think you could get £2500 to the rite buyer maybe someone whos buying there first setup. but to most your looking at £1000 van and a secondhand system. i may be wrong please dont take offence just i was gunna buy a combo not so long ago and there not that expensive on autotrader. but on the pluss side that vinyl wrap is gunna add a good £500 second hand value so yea probley 2.5k to the rite buyer would be a good price to aim for  ;D

no offence matey ... yup ur dead right ref prices of vans without system ... was going to split it and sell bits separately but vans with systems seem to be worth more ... guess it must be convenience factor as not everyone confident to make their own though not that tricky a job to diy  :)

I think 2.5k is reasonable for someone who wants something that is ready to go and work wfp and not only that also looks the part with the vinyl wrap. That really sets it of from any other small van with a wfp system that's blank and boring

IMO it's worth 2k only to the right buyer (limited market). Van's probably worth 1k to 1.5k max.

Oh, & you're rear most roof bar is not rear enough ;D Why do people fit the rear one in the middle? I had a doblo come like like that, I swiftly changed it. ;)

Is it not glaringly obvious Alan? ;D

I would assume that the majority of small to medium size vans will only have two mounting points for roof bars. Some racks will come with a rear support that will rest on the van so I would think that there is only one thing glaringly obvious ;)

from memory there were no holes further back and the ones used have strengthening brackets from factory inside roof ... now you've pointed it out it does look wrong though

That is the correct fitment. If you want the 3 bar system the third bar goes further back and it has two feet which rest on the roof.

My mate has one with a two bar system & his is further back. Is there a LWB combo? Usually the brackets are different heights to accommodate the roof line yet keep the bars level.

My Doblo came with bars in the same position as that picture which made the ladders point downwards & be quite unstable. Moved the rear one further back into the next brackets & it made the bars level plus more stable ladder perch.
