Estate Car or Van.

I use a VW Transporter van with extra seats (total 6). Don't need to take them out to transport the equipment.

Alloys?

Signwritten alloys is a step too far....

mercedes sprinter mate. i know you here mercedes and think pricey. but you get a good second hand one anything from a v to now your laughing. heres the thing the parts are cheaper than transit,ldv and iveco and they run forever I've got a v reg long wheel base 310 had 84.000 recorded miles when i bought it. I look after it and its some machine. wouldn't recommend anything else

Best you check yours. I bought it from a pikey who just got off the ferry from Ireland.

What do you get, if you cross a pikey with an octopus?

I use a peugeot partner car, seats fold up completely away and has same load space as van version. The citroen berlingo is basically the same car but doesnt have quite the acceleration under load as the partner (2ltr hdi engine)
Can get loads in the back including stands etc without having to poke into front compartment.Has very high ground clearance as well ideal for bumping up curbs when fully laden. Get between 40 - 50 mpg on the 2ltr diesel version. Im told its slightly better on the 1.6 diesel engine but not so nippy.

They are the same vehicle, made in the same factory. There are however several different models.

My old Partner recently threw a con rod, which not only buggered the engine, but took out the starter motor & the radiator too Very messy & if I'd felt a jolt when it went bang I'd have sworn I'd hit something.

I've been using a SWB Transit Connect over the last few weeks, very nippy & holds a lot more than you'd think.
