Soldato
I’m looking for a cheapish van. Size wise it’s going to be a short wheel base type, something like a Ford Transit Connect or a Citroen Berlingo. It also needs to have a side loading door. Something which some do/don’t have in this range.
Price wise we’re looking around £2k so appreciate it’s going to be something around 10 years old but I figure that most vans can go for hundreds of miles so something with ~150k on the clock isn’t a huge worry.
My concern is that as it will mainly be used for relatively short journeys, is a diesel really the best option due to DPF failure etc, Do you get many petrol models in this category?
Does anyone have any experience of these type of vans and have any particular models to look at/avoid?
