SO what happens at the end of the hire period? is the van given back and assuming its not damaged thats that?
Or do you have option to buy or sell it etc?

Same van mate, L2.

That's a 500 Grippa tank system with cox reel and roller floor system. Roller guide was a bit of a faff as the exhaust was in the way.

Only thing is the tank should really be pushed up to the front more buts its only a one man system anyway.

works really well.

Enjoy it mate :)

its a business finance lease not contract hire so you have an option to pay the final balloon payment yourself  then continue to rent the van for a peppercorn rental.or sell the van to a third party and pay the balloon payment off.it doesnt matter what state the vans in(although obviously it will affect the price you ll get for it if its shabby)

cheers damien :)

did grippa fit your tank or did you fit it yourself?im looking at getting the basic 500L tank,1 pump and controller and cox reel.probably could do with some storage units as well. ;D

not gonna bother with the split charge relay or hot water.just a basic system.its expensive enough!!

What will you do with your old system Daz?? I reckon after a few weeks working in a brand new van/system you'll want to work full time again  ;D

I am capable of fitting it myself but allowed them to fit it.

Yes that's the system we had fitted in it except we had split charge relay fitted. We had storage fitted as well but they took the photos before it was fitted lol

On this van we had the floor done with speed liner and yeah i can see why its expensive. First van i have had done with it, very impressed with quality.

If you do go down the grippa route let me know will try and meet you, only 10 miles from them :D

Van handles 500L fine and drives just like a car.

I suppose the next question is - how big is the balloon? Are we talking Zeppelin?

Re the expense thing. Everyone who has gone out with me in any of our vans with grippa systems have all said the same. Is there any water in the tank!? They drive, handle and perform like a factory fit system. Joy to use and the vans are brill.

Looking at getting an m sport  :-X :-X but they wont build a 340 version  ::)roll ::)roll ::)roll

would a 650lt tank fit in those connects with room for hose reels, i know its very borderline weight wise but for the number of times i would fill it to that would be minimal and i reckon would still be under.

Also how wide are the actual 2 passenger seats do you reckon you could safely have 2 booster seats on each one for 2 young kids?

nice looking vans those connects..its 1 of them or the custom prefer the connect for more ease of access for parking etc.

That's awesome daz , they look really smart. nearly 1000kg payload too? all the mod cons!
One day il have one like that too , I don't really like committing to long term contracts though which is what puts me off
