mk4/5 van....solid petrol or a cheapy diesel...

Postby Gavin » Sat Aug 02, 2008 11:47 pm

ok....i need a new van..preferably a swb low or semi high, 80 or 100. i'll pay for a decent petrol around £1500-2k, or i'll take a cheap tatty diesel for £5-600 if its got a long mot.

i do a lot of driving through the LEZ, just not worth spending money on a diesel that will be no good to me in 18months...

thought i found one today, x reg mk 5 petrol with lpg for 795 quid........scabby but just got an mot and fairly sound .......so far so good, shame about the bulkhead but i can rip that out .......then i opened up the back...lpg tank had been put in the back behind the bulkhead and boxed in, leaving about as much room as in a connect or a berlingo :roll: why on earth would someone do this when theres tons of space under the van? no point in driving around for 55p per litre if you cant get anything in the back!!



still looking... :roll:

Was it not worth moving the tank?
