Mate of mine had his set up in a picasso many years ago

250 tank (one of those black water tank you have in your loft, just had the outlet/inlet sealed up) with a board on top with the hose reel mounted on it for ease of reeling in
Pump on a pump board, wires long enough to run it off the car battery

Simple but effective set up actually, and you could clean more than you think


Although by the sounds of it, you have a van mount system already...money troubles or not, I'd be using that considering it'll be the source of income to get you out of tye money problems...?

Here is an example of a system fitted to the Vauxhall Combo sold once on Ebay.



The system fitted behind the back seats of the Combo. The rear seat were added to make it a 'crew' van.

250 liter. It must be properly secured to the car's floor. I'm not sure why the top channel is V'ed in two places as that will weaken it. I would have expected the owner to have addition bracing brackets on the sides and I'm sure there would have also been some way to secure it to the roof as well. It won't be pretty but functional.

id keep your van and use that.its a pain working from a car(i did for a month in jan this year!).i used 4 barrels,backpack on trolley and took a small DI with me to purify water in the afternoons(i took 120L with me and purified the same for the afternoons).

its ok for a stop gap but id hate to work like that for months on end.also my car got wet and its only just dried out 2 months on!

i was spending at least another hour a day at work faffing about plus i couldnt do certain bigger jobs as they d be too much hassle.it kept me earning though and stopped me losing out on £3,500+ so it was worth it for the short term.
price higher/work harder!
