Citroen Dispatch or equivalent is ideal and you'll get a 55 plate for under £4000.

Peugeot expert, good value for money and you should get a good one for that price.

Got to agree with the above guys.

Its a great van and have space to upgrade as well and also will fit in the garage and thats even better for security ;D

Pergeot Expert and Citroen Didpatch are the same van, made at the same factory but on different production lines. I'm told the Citroen gets a better quality underseal but it was a Citroen dealer that told me that so, might have been a lie ;D

why a mid size van? I never heard anyone complain they have too much room in their van but I hear lots of complaint of too little room..... which says to me buy more than you need.

a short wheel based large van like a transit would fit your needs and would still fit the job when you get more kit.

I'm sure what you think is a fine size just now will soon change after a while.Extra 25ft of hose ,this extra,that extra ,even if it seems too big just now i'm sure you will grow into it.   Gordon

I use a Vauxhall Vivaro. Would not go smaller as it deals with everthing and I'm not convinced you actually run one of the smaller vans for that much less money.
