Check your payload first and see what tank is suitable.

Hi
988kgs. With 650 litres, tank, hose reels, battery, poles, ladders and roofrack and all the other equipment you may be carrying, 2 men and diesel I recon you could be very close to the payload limit if not over it.

I have a Citroen Relay 2.0Hdi with a payload of 1150kgs and that's just on the limit if there is 3 of us.
My diesel tank holds 80litres and that weighs 80kgs when full, so half a tank is still heavy. The trouble is that it looks heavy. I mainly use it on my own, so it's only occassionally that this happens.

I think you would have to be very strict with what extra you carry in the van if you were to buy them.
I also believe that working a van on the limit all the time will increase wear and tear which is added expense.

How much extra is the next model up, the 1200 with an 1188kg payload?

I'm sure that would be much better for him. Always better to buy the right tools for the job.

i would just make sure you dont carry 2 men to the 1st job and fill £15 liters a day im sure it wont be over a tone best way would be to get it weighed

Hi,
I'm sure Lee works on his own as I don't recall him talking of a 2 man setup in any of his posts. Lee has a LWB Transit Connect with a 900kg payload. I imagine that with the tank that size in the back, there isn't very much room left for too much else to add much more weight.

Sorry
I've missed them. I have done a search and they have been moved from photobucket so am none the wiser. So I gather he must have everything in there inluding the kitchen sink!  

While searching I saw some pictures of a T220 Connect with a 650 litre flat tank. Now that's tight and could be seriously over payload if the was full. T220 payload 825Kgs.
