Which van?
« on: January 10, 2012, 05:48:25 pm »
Right van purchasing time, been keeping an eye out but now I really need to pull my finger out.

So the choices I have.... (open to suggestion though)

Citroen Berlingo
Citroen Berlingo Multispace
Peugeot Partner
Citroen Dispatch
Ford Transit Connect
Vauxhall Viaro

Too much choice, do i go for a big van or a little van. Hmmm.

Help please.

what sort of work do you do, what amount per day, do you employ people.
this would vary your van choice

are you thinking of going wfp anytime soon ?
if not you only need an astra/belingo imo
Transit size is ott for a trad cleaner.

if you thinking going wfp which I would defo recomend I would go for a trnasit/vivaro due to the amount of water you will need to take

the transit connect is a very popular choice, nice size and carry decent payload (up to 750kg i think).

I have a volkswagen caddy, looks the biz, pretty reliable (even though expensive to buy in the first place), has 750kg payload, i can legally carry up to 400 litres, all my kit and a passanger.

What van would do for me? At the moment just traditional gear, but wanting to get a backpack, pole and few barrels for water. Recently bought an estate but the WFP gear isnt going to fit  >:( Wish I would of listened to what was said on here and not bothered with the estate....
