Those of you with these vans could you fit the smallest 2 section A frame/ pointer ladder inside the van? These are my first choice for my next van so would be handy to know. Thanks, Cleancare.

what is the closed length of your A frame, it will maybe also depend on whether you have a full bulkhead in the van.

I don't think so, mate.  I can measure the space available if you would like me too.  It would cost you the price of posting a funny joke about er,... Scottish people in this post.

The load length (length of floor from behind the back seat to the rear doors) is 2059mm of the model to 2006. But as you get higher off the floor that length decreases as the backs of the seats 'encroaches' into the load space. As has been mentioned, you will have a little space above the driver and passenger cabin area you may be able to utilise.
The model van that Tosh has just bought only came in 1 length, although a LWB version was available on the continent.
It is the latest van version after 2007 that has 2 body lengths.

Just an added point.

Citroen and Peugeot vans came with a dual passenger seat as standard but Fiat sold theirs as a added extra. So there are some Scudo's out there that have a single passenger seat although they are rare. There is very little chance of buying a used Citroen or Peugeot with a single passenger seat as they were sold as a no cost option and a factory order - so there is very little chance of getting a van that you could stand the ladder up between the seats.
