What van should I get?

[Duncan]

Sorry, I know this is one of those questions that has no answer but I need to get a van for my tiling business. I was thinking Transit Custom or VW Transporter but I've seen a few trades men in the VW Caddy and was wondering what tilers went for.
Cheers

just avoid the old style vivaro. Just a money pit!

Morris thousand . Future proof yourself against post brexit import levy's on parts .

I would get something of transit size but depends what sort of work your doing if your just doing kitchen splashbacks a caddy would be fine but if your tiling large floors you would soon go overweight with adhesive etc in a small van .

I'm all for the transits, not the custom the one before, but if your thinking of going for something a little newer and flasher then I have heard very good things about the spanking new vivaro, better the new transits my sources tell me dont know the specifics of that tho

I'm getting a new shape vivaro in the coming weeks, I've spent ages contemplating it. Transits have such a bad crime rate

Depends on what you feel you NEED to carry . For me Tiling does not require HUGE vans . And you can get stuff delivered.


IF i was to buy a van it would be a Renault traffic . About 6 years old with AC . A few friends have them and they have never let them down. great value and drive well . I would only BUY , i dont Lease or get on the ticky ticky
