hard to help without all the info but maybe you could start off with just water barrels and a trolley? or backpack?
at least living in ireland your water will be soft and easy to make pure!
window cleaning warehouse backpack around £100 mark is good
purefreedom trolley or xline trolley are good.
cheap trolley option could be omnipole 35 litre £200 ish.

Dont mess about with backpacks and trolleys, get yourself a tank (400ltr min) pump box from cleantech, 100mtr microbore hose and reel, 300 ro system, and a pole. You should have change from £1000 and you have an excellent system!!!

whats the point in getting a tank fitted in the van when he hasnt got any customers. gonna need room for all the carpet cleaning kit.
thats why i suggested the trolley/backpack but i do agree in the long run a full fitted system would be best.
but he was asking for a cheap start up kit

I have exactly all of that,but i got a backpack first,what a ball ache that was,constantly fillling and humping barrels around,granted i probably used too much water,but even so it is still a pain,my 400 litre tank ran out at dinner yesterday had to come home to refill(myself included!),So using that much in a backback would of been a nightmare,I know/hope I will start to use less water eventually,but even so it would still be a pain.

And thats exactly what I suggested for him... a cheap start up kit!! and one that he won't need to replace in 6 months time when he's fed up with humping a backpack/trolley about!!! ;)
