Nemo with a 500l tank 😳

I'd bet decent money that you are overweight when full.

Guys,
I borrowed one from my local Citroen dealer for 2 days to see what I coukd fit in it and took it to the weigh bridge. It can't hold all the 500 litres but holds more than 400 so that's why I put the 50@ tank in and it was a better fit too. We don't carry anything else and they are only single operator set ups. Perfect on my eyes for what I need them to do

No fuel?
No driver?
No reel?
No poles?
No trad gear?

There's a window cleaner not far from us that has a Citroen Berlngo 600LX.  He has a 650 litre flat tank in it. I first saw it about 6 years ago. It was first thing in the morning and I had just come out of the dentist - a first appointment. I went over and spoke to him.  He had 2 sets of ladders on the roof, a hose reel, steps, a couple of poles and brushes and his tank was brimmed. He says that he starts his day every day like that - its gets lighter as the day goes on.
He had about 1/2 a tank of diesel and he is quite well built.

I saw him the other day just after lunch - his van was still sitting on it's axles.

I'm not a window cleaner but I have a few nemos there a great little run about

Servicing every 22000 miles which is a massive thing for us as we do about 30,000
A year

Loads of room inside for the driver etc not massive in the back but not bad

What's not great is the fuel tank wish it was bigger we fill up a couple of times a week
Ride is alright a bit rough but it's not bad


Would I get another one

Yeah 100% we have got another two in order

Deege,
With what we carry, inc driver, they are on the max payload, we work local doing domestic, 1 clx, 1 hose reel with microbire and only ever half a tank of fuel max. And the half a tank happens in all my vehicles, vans cars, never drive around with a full tank in anything.
It's not overloaded as it's been weighed with how I operate, so what's the problem?
