Right, i'm looking for a van, and eventually a wfp system fitted.
This is all ready to go:

Is it a good deal?
What are these vans like for reliability, has 126k on clock?
How much can you do in a day with 400 litres? Two guys?
Thanks!

400 litres is plenty for one man working all day mate, I have a 400 litre tank and have never ran out of water.

The guy who is selling it gets vans cheap then puts a budget system in and sells on, I'm not sure how reliable the van will be, ask about service history, I bought a lwb transit connect with full service history and bought all the wfp gear myself, worked out much much cheaper!
Service hostory is a must, because you've no idea how long the van will last without solid service history!

Looks like you'd be paying over the odds given mileage for the convenience of a tidy looking ready to go set up, as jakey said you could put it together yourself if you had the inclination far cheaper and with a lower mileage van for the same money or less.

Thanks guys.
1) What about the Transit Connect T230 LWB. Meant to have a 900kg payload. Is this good for a 650litre tank?
2) Is a 650litre tank enough for two lads for a day?
Thanks
