Matt, if it is fitted the way needed a swb is a min, I have a tranist that caters for the same as what you are after, it is a squeeze but I had it design to fit what I wanted, geni gutter van wfp system poles hoses, pressure washer whirlaway, more hoses and 2 hose reels for wfp.
If I had a choice again I may opt for a mwb or a higher roof than a swb low roof that I have, I am getting another van in the new year and will be measuring it for what I need again as want a 1000l wfp system and gutter and pw stuff. Rob at M clean like making good of space in a van then hiding it to be a bed and home away from home...

you are not gonna need all that gear in van at one time so why buy a massive van to carry it all around? a fully loaded van will use more fuel also

Problem is there are times when you need it all in the van trust me, I do just this. I never have the lot in the van when not needed and is cleared out at night. but not getting it right costs money, I learnt this the hard way and had to get another wfp system to fit in after I had just had one made for me, was 12 inches to big  :'(, ask concept he will vouch as he bought it from me at 2/3 months old

Craig, we are seriously thinking of getting a small remortgage, to pay of the loans and credit cards we used this year.
as it stands we have just got a constant headache.
plus it will make it easier each month.

It will make me feel more relaxed, new year, new start.
I certainly don't want to be spending the same next year as I have this year.
Bought loads of kit, and starting up again in Essex.
