have you got a scudo/dispatch/expert van?

is it the old shape and how much did you pay for it?mileage/age etc.as im after one of these vans.i think i can pick one up for about 3/3.5 grand(05/06).

i really dont wanna spend big bucks on a van that will only do 2500-3000 miles a year.


cheers buddy :)

I got a REALLY good deal on mine its a 56 plate and had 88k on it, every other dispatch of that age on ebay at the time were all £3500+ and some had more miles!

I got mine for £1900  ;D he wanted £2250 i found it as soon as he listed on ebay nobody had bid on it so i phoned him and got him to take it off to save him ebay fees.

I had to go to Brighton on the train to get it over 100 miles and then...........

The geezer tried to chat me up!  :o  ;D

cheers mate.

im looking and really im not bothered about whether its a 1.9 or a 2.0 HDI but this size van seems ideal for me.400-450L on board and all my other gear.

i was thinking about getting a 500L tank but i reckon my 350 will do with a couple of barrels if needed.i cant see me working more than 6 hours "on the glass" a day as ive had enough usually by 4pm.

for add ons i usually use custys outside taps using my 20m of extension hose.

i was thinking of spending 5 or 6 grand on a van and tank but id rather spend half that and book a holiday for me and my family! ;)
