I want a new van - Tile Advice

[acaciaguy]

Nice

Same with my traffic and my old transporter, so if you want to slide sheets straight in . LWB

Having had a look around there isn’t the amount / value as there is with the swb vans. I’m happy to go in diagonally or to roof rack them. Thank you very much for the advice.

SWB low roof...it fits a 8x4 in corner to corner long as you don't run the racking right across bulkhead..

No chance your van is looking like that on a friday as your running out of a job to get home

Looks a decent deal deal on a new van. Transit custom or vivaro, traffic, I've had both and they both have there plus and minus but they are very similar. I like to own a motor so bought mine when it was 3 years old.

Picture removed.

Just while we're on the topic of vans I'm looking for a couple of images of your vans. Perhaps signwritten side-on or something that'd look good on a blog post.

I'm on the hunt for a van too, but I prefer automatics and it seems there's not many auto vans to choose from

The 'New' Peugeot thingy that Vivaro and Citroen are in cahoots with has a good auto version........... they look smart but have less space - probably great for tiling.

Just been checking out the new VW Transporter 6.1, now that looks like a sweet van.
Bit pricey I bet though...

i have a merc 111lwb have a rack in where i can get 20 sheets of 6 mm ply just below the roof line and above all my kit. its a 2.15 diesel and i get about 35 mpg and dose a ton with ease ,probably why only 35. like driving a car thinking of getting another for my son the 3ltr sports auto looks really good. some bargins on gumtree
if you get a transit get your looks changed as there easy to break into know several people who have had there tools taken and had to fork out a fortune to get set up again
