Any recommendations for a transfer hose . Just need to get 200 litres from a water butt in the garden , into the tank in the van . Gravity wont do it . Unless any other ideas .

I don’t believe in transfer hose, it hasn’t been tested enough and could be a myth...

Yep, dirty water pump and 1" 1/4 hose. Will do 200L easy. I use the Draper dirty water pump from screwfix for about £40.

I use thick 1" 1/4 clear plastic hose from my local diy shop

Thought I'd surface and make an appearance.  Might stick about a bit too.

P.s. sorry to OP, not been here propper since 2013

I use a sump pump purchased from Lidl back in 2007, coupled with 1" ID reinforced hose from Machine Mart.  It moves about 60 L/min down 20m of this hose.
We have a choice! We can do one or the other, the opposite, both, or neither depending on which way the wind is blowing.
