Get a Transit .

I'd like a medium wheel base and medium roof  Transit van and a size up .
To get a 1000 litres tank be good .

But a 650 litre is in my transit swb,260 

if you like this size vans theres loads of ex gas ones going thought the block on 08 -09 from 21k-75k on the clock most are mint starting from 3600- 5100 plus the vat looked at a few of them to big for use and they were only 5 speeds no good for the long hauls we do

Why are 5 speeds no good for you,
What sort of milage do you hit each week then coz
At 30-40mpg that most vans get fully loaded i wouldnt have thought it would matter too much weather a 5 or 6 speed???not that i know how good a 6 speed van is but hey ho!
My car is a 6 speed and only gets me 15-20mpg if im lucky but i do put My foot down,
In my van which is 5 speed i get 30-40 mpg on longish motorway journys when fully loaded. I cant see many vans doing that much better than 30-40 mpg when full with 1000 litres of water??
Maybe im wrong as usual as havnt drove a 6 speed van but hey ho.

6 speed van! You will feel the difference! Trust me!   It just gives you that extra Boast when you need it and great in Snow having the 6th Gear!
