Under £3000 so on a tight buget! Cabin to be in good condition, not so bothered about load area, preferably not white but beggers can't be choosers!
Thanks

Have a word with MVS Van sales... there are some details somewhere on the site. They sell ex RAC vans and I believe they have some around that price?

Thanks for the reply. I've also seen this on Autotrader too.
It's just over £1000 so far, take it you've got a reserve? If it doesn't meet it's reserve, pm me, and we could negotiate a price.
Also, thanks for the link to the RAC vans.
Edit: Regarding them ex RAC vans, does anyone know what condition to expect them? I'm guessing high miles?

RAC vans from MVS are MINT apart from a few holes in the dash from phone kits etc
Mine had 130000 miles and a FULL dealer service history with services every 8k

Well it had had a blow over with lovely filler work, a nice clogged filter and lots of dodgy wiring. Other than that it was mint.

I've got an ex-BT 300 SWB 75ps here Dec 2000 on a (X) plate
Was owned by a local company who went bust on us, so i've got there vans. Being an ex-BT it has the roofrack, only single passenger seat, some internal racking etc etc, and unfortunately in White!?? Its done 81k, i'm never going to get enough to cover our debts but would be in your budget. (MOT April 2009)
Just a thought if your stuck! Can send pictures if wanted
Cheers Paul

For cost.
They seem a decent company MVS, vans histories are very clear and can do pritty much anything you want.
As an example, there was a 52 plate but done 170,000miles, bumpers were fading so they would re spray them and other parts of the body work, they would have repaired the rust on the sills and taken out certain things like lights. They'd have changed two front tyres for me and the fan belt all for the knocked down price of £2600+vat which came down from £3200.
I'm after a FWD 300, not the 330, which I'm led to believe is quite unique when not an RAC van?
