Found the perfect van for us at last

[Pudsey Bear]

Out of our price range, but we both really like it. If I were still working, I'd try getting finance on, but no chance on SGP.

I has all we need, the beds let it down a little, but we could make that work by having one each

It'd need to be down plated to 3.5t.

You would have crawl over each other to get to the loo Kev unless one of you sleeps up front.

 

[Pudsey Bear]

Like I said, have separate beds, do keep up

Nice MH with low mileage. Haggle with the seller maybe, see if they will drop it to £30k for quick sale.

Another one on fleabay, much lower price:

Another nice van, but Puds needs an automatic

Nice.

Old 5 speed auto, pretty much as reliable as they come and no ad blue nonsense.

Whats payload when down plated, if you're worried about that kind of stuff.
Can't tell if it's 3.8 tonne from factory or an up plated job.

You would have crawl over each other to get to the loo Kev unless one of you sleeps up front.

and that is a problem because?

It is the situational for most fixed beds along the length of the vehicle.
I tend to get the "open side" so SWMBO either crawls over me and hits me with all three elbows or slides quietly in and out via the bottom of the bed without me noticing.

Possibly, but it's a car dealer, probably took it in from someone packing up for a more expensive car and maybe not interested in giving a good PX for ours, so I'd still be shy £15-20k Ral

Yes, it's a nice van, same layout problem, but it's not an automatic, in a Fiat I'd need it to be a 2023/4 to get into the 8 speed Automatic, not interested in the 9 or the automated manual.

 

[Pudsey Bear]

Might be a struggle.

They where always built on over 3.5t chassis. The one in advert is way over priced.

Find a cheaper one, same spec, MB's have always held their prices better than Fiats etc, Autos also have a premium due to rarity.

Does that mean its a factory 3.8t ?

 

[r4dent]

If the heart wins over the head & wallet be careful of the seller

According to the Ebay page the Seller is Budget Car Sales who have been on Ebay since April 2019

Whereas according to companies house Budget Car Sales Wolverhampton was dissolved in 2017, less than two years after being set up

with very young directors

Yes

 

[trevskoda]

Is it LEZ compliant?

 

[mark61]

As long as registered as historic vehicle, may well be exempt.

Well if its the first one even once then I think you answered your own question. They don't look very big either to me.
