I'm looking at getting myself a small van to get around in and carrying my tools, I'm a novice so not many at all just the wife don't want me messing her car! Any recommendations on a small van to get me about with. £500-£750 price tag that's good on fuel and cheap to insure? Also what to avoid?:RpS_bored::rolleyes):RpS_thumbup::RpS_thumbup:
 
Yeah my uncle lives down that way now,also a plasterer but seemed to have taken a very wrong path in life if you get what I mean lol
 
I did it online :)


I'm using The Plasterers Forum Mobile App
lol only kidding



van insurance takes the pisss my renewal went up 200 quid this year with evan mutherfuckers for no reason, i called to say its not on and the cuunts didnt move a penny so i told them togofuckthemselvs :RpS_thumbup:
 
I have always rated Astravans . They are quite cheap to run and easy to get parts for if they go wrong. Not to steep on the insurance. The only downside is you cant get too many materials in them , but great size for just carrying your tools around in.
 
70 a month is still a kick in the balls....
what age are you ryan ??what car ? Any convictions:RpS_sneaky:
 
I paid £250 for my escort van... I found £38 in pound coins in it but the van had a bit of panel damage but I sorted that out and all I spent on it was a clutch, cam belt renewal and general servicing...

I put it in storage for a year while I was travelling come back and the garage roof had collapsed and caused a bit of damage but the biggest issue was getting my private plate off as it had not had tax or mot for 2 years...lol

Rookie mot later my plate was off and the Van was on the back of a truck going to the scrappy and i got £150 for it :) Must of had it 6 years? God knows...lol

Cracking little van :)
 
Escort was high on my list but I thought that I may be able to find something cheaper to run. ( I'm half Scottish so I'm half tight lol)
 
cheaper to run?

lol If you want cheap fuel and tax.. then you need to spend more money...

I only drove to Newport Pagnell and back pretty much...lol
