6k ono Marc. Tons of repairs. Professionalily carpet lined rear with six ceiling spots and has 18" alloys, side bars and rear spoiler, sude window, all done just over a year ago.fully color coded and reverse sensors, electric windows and cd. Also has non slip rubber mat on rear floor Looks mint but it will be ruined if I keep using it for plastering. I bought it for mountain biking first and tiling\plastering second but I now find tiling\plastering took over my time so I need something more commcial. 147k on clock

Haha I'm 55 not 25 D! Hahaha

Cheapest way to own a van imo is to think of a 10-12 cycle cycle. Buy new and pay it off over 4-5 years, you'll look after it like a baby because of what you paid for it and you'll know it inside out as it'll have only been you driving it. When it's paid off you'll have many years of free driving with minor mantaince
I bought a race red Ford transit custom L2 310 trend last September for £19k +vat, great van, love it

Or buy an old VW T2 panel van , ply line the back and treat it nice for a few years, then sell it for a big profit as the prices just keep going up and up.

Live a little, your only here once
Your accountant will love you and your potential customers will be thinking " he must be good at his job or how could he afford that"

I like the customers who don't mind paying a little extra for something so long as it's right and first impressions stick with those types of customers

Yeah, but when you turn up in a van worth £1ok+ they might think that anyway.
A solid, cared for and rare vw might make people think you look after things!

If I drove an old VW in no time at all I would be flicking the bird at hippy surfers when they waved at me like I had joined their secret club! New tranny any day!

That's a lot of money for a 9 year old van are you sure it's worth that? I think you'll be lucky to get 4K for it. I paid 6k for mine 6 years ago when it was 4 years old. Maybe if it was camper converted you might get that money. (Not a criticism by the way, just think you're being a bit optimistic with that valuation )

 

[Wishiwasatoptiler]

Always optimistic bri. No point been any other way. Lol. It's more of a leisure vehicle inside hence the extra costs and main reason for selling . A bit like one of those fancy transporter kombi. We will see. I'll let ya know. Lol.

 

[Ian]

I wish you all the best, if you get that money let me know coz that's what I'll want for mine
