machine sizes

will a G4 machine fit in a HI top LWB connect van or would it be best to have a bigger van given the fact you will have material and tools and chippy paper ;D

Reckon you may wanna go a bit bigger mate all the kit weighs a fair bit and youwould probably be overweight just all the hoses and electric cable weigh a fair bit

must admit my transporter is the smallest i would want to go ......

 

[southernmonkey]

I got a lwb hitop transit and after I put my sarnies in back I ain't got much room left for a machine ,

Ive seen Movanos that are years old and the body work dos`nt seem to rust much

got a swb transit and i find it's the perfect compromise between primary transport and boxy workvan...fits the machine plastering gear good......sometimes i have to think of the good points of the smallish size to justify not having a bigger van! so anything smaller/narrower is out of the question for me.

i gotta say that although my van is massive i got stacks of room in it , but tbh when i get another 1 im getting a smaller one a mwb med roof , the one i got is just to big really

Interesting that as I was thinking about a tranny, sick of the cost of the vito goin wrong just had the alternator done for £250. its a shame cos the engine is sound, like a train and it drives superb but the rest of the van is cheaply done - hence no cup holders
