Anyway never mind all that it's clearly the 2012 plate as it has the sapphire grill :lol:

Both those vans are 280, so can only carry 200 kg more than your SportVan
Is that enough?

I’d also go for the 2012
The older one has been painted and is only 85ps

Thanks. Yes 280 will be ok. Don't think the 18 inch alloys help with big loads lol.

So them miles wouldn't put you off?
