Advice on what LGV to buy

[DeanR32]

Happy BHM PH

I need advice on what m/lwb van to purchase. My budget is 8k.

Ideally, I wanted a Sprinter or a Crafter, but that gets me a 12/13 plate and 100k and above miles. This made me think about The Peugeot, Citroen and Fiat trio. Three years old and 100k miles, but French!

What vans do you own/use? I'm looking for reliability more than anything else, as when it lets me down, I won't be able to claim the hire for it

Any suggestions are welcome

Cheers

Ducato/Boxer/Relay with the rare 3.0 engine (Iveco lump & a timing chain) is the one to go for, the others have the troublesome 2.2/2.3 engines.

+1 to the above the Iveco 3.0 is a very reliable & robust engine but they're hard to find.

Here's one on budget:
