dam ldv! buying new van and need advice

[Czlowiek Drzewo]

Had my ldv for about 18 months now. and every single month you can be sure you will have to repair something. bought it for 3,200 and spent far more than that or repairs.

 

Anyways after it gets out garage i am going to sell get rid of it.

 

I have between 12,000 and 16,000 budget for new van. Any reccomendations? transit? Daily?

 

thanks

( Oh ...just buy a Mog)

[tree_beard]

i would suggest...

 

a transit, a daily, a cabstar, isuzu nkr, landy 130, mog, lorry, tractor or maybe a tricycle with a big wicker basket on the front..

 

one of those should do you nicely:001_smile:

I'm getting a 130 tipper to run along with a canter. Tried l200, transits, cabstar, reanolt traffic all sorts but none last.

 

The canter is standing up to the job well and I hear good things about the isuzu's. Most likely as they are both based on bigger trucks but down rated to 3.5t

get them on a demo, go to a local builders merchant & borrow 1.5 ton of sand hitch up the chipper & find some big hills & do some testing & see which perfoms the best
