true the Land Cruisers are good but if any thing gos wrong you need very small hands and will have a very empty wallet at the end of the day
but with the landys you can get your tool kit out and fix it and lots of speer parts for them to (but i dont like toyotas ) and i like brakes as standard :rolleyes:
 
mercedes vito 639,shes done me proud,now upto 193000mls and still drives sweet as a nut,only downfall is the rusty bits,but its reliability that counts in my book.:cool:

i have a fiat doblo very good size for a small van bought for 2,500 after 2 months though fuel pump went cost 1,865 pounds for new one very unlucky
 
definatley need a van big enough to carry yer gear I recently down graded from a long wheel base semi high top transit, to a ford escort, bad bad bad move, now considering an artic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I satrted off a couple of years ago with a peugeot expert but found it was just a bit too small for me at the time so now have a swb med roof transit. Have made racking on both sides, have a pipe tube on the roof. It's plenty big enough for what I do (mainly bathroom fits)
 
big harben jetter/cctv in a 350 transit, 3008 jetter in 280 transit, odd job/labours van VX astra.

cant complain about any of the transits, both been fantastic.

astra on the other hand is a pain in the bum. is had EGR/ECU/airflow/pump. i had an old escort 75 before the astra and it was alot better although sluggish.

the astra (after spending £££££) is going away to a transit connect very soon.

The EGR valve on the Astra is a moving part which is subjected to a lot of use. It is only expected to last for about 50,000 miles max so if you left it longer it would have caused the throttle to be sluggish, causing reduced fuel economy as it would have started to wear out.
