Is it worth it

Postby man le-mans » Fri Jul 17, 2015 3:56 pm

I have a very clean 115bhp T350 with 53k mwb on a 10 plate trend. And a customer of mine has a mint 140bhp T350 with 22k mwb on a 11 plate trend. I've had no problems what so ever with my van but my customer is thinking of selling his van and getting a new one. Now should I offer to buy his van and sell mine and if so how much do you think I should be paying extra to exchange the vans and also is it worth the hassle.
Do you think the exchange should cost me about 2k ish to upgrade
Help please lol

The 115 is more reliable, I'd keep it ;)
