I looked at one a while back ... 750 payload so 350 tank be fine ... even maybe put tank lengthwise ??

in the end wanted a bigger van so went for something else instead but seem plenty about at decent prices

I used one as a courtesy vehicle for a few weeks after mine was reversed in to and being repaired.
Quite a nice van but what I found frustrating was the fact that I could not centrally lock the cab ( solid bulk head ) and work with the rear doors open.

Auto Express backs up what others have said;

 Load capacity is the real strength of the NV200 – it offers a very generous space considering its compact dimensions, with 4.2 cubic metres of volume in the rear and a 739kg payload.

There’s enough room for two Europallets, while bulky loads up to 1.36 metres in height can be carried, thanks to the tall roof. However, conventional vans like the Renault Kangoo Maxi – with its 4.0 cubic metres of load space and up to 800kg of payload – aren’t far behind.

Other rivals have the edge over the NV200: the Fiat Doblo Cargo is offered with a 1,000kg payload option, and can handle loads of up to 5.0 cubic metres in XL high-roof trim, while the long-wheelbase version of the Ford Transit Connect has a maximum payload of 905kg.

height is my problem ,have 85 inch under carport , transit t230 is 78 inch, t220 72inch  but I want the extra room in the back , nv200 74 inch , give me more room for rack and ladder but will have to saw ladder clamp down a bit. Only use ladder twice every 3 weeks unless needed but feel I need to carry it just in case don't trust these telescopic ones .
