Hey got a 07 traffic. Had one a a rental when mine was in garage 2 years ago. So I bought one. I love it, loads room even wiv rackin. Jus had new G box but it's nice to drive. Would recommend!
Vauxhall Combo. 55 plate, 30K on the clock. Ex BT, had it for about 3 years. Brilliant van, just too small.
I always drove transits or similar size before, so had to leave a lot of gear out, but as said, you do cut out a lot of pointless crap when you don't have the option of taking it. I used to drive around with a big generator, and welding kit. How often am I going to need that fixing mrs jones boiler? Crazy.
That said, when I can, I'll upsize to a transit again as I would like more organisation and storage for parts.

i was thinking of doing my to re map it > pls tell us how do you fined it now ?
Pay to have it done profesionally, i have used the same company for the past 20 years. For me i think the sign writing is great as it gives you presence and gets you noticed.
Free advertising 24/7, it's great as i am 100% sure that over the years the sign writing has paid for itself 10 fold.

Ford escort 55! T reg, it looks alright with my sign writing but too small and old, was my first van. Plan on probably going for a Transit connect high top later this year or early next. This thread has given me some inspiration!

I don't quite get the point of spending money on a van fitting alloy wheels and having engines re-mapped?? It makes sense to have a tidy looking van but it's a utility vehicle at the end of the day. If you need to go 150mph then get a Porsche surely?
Whatever floats your boat though I suppose.:tongue3:

hes got spare cash to splash, must be doing good eh :tongue3: I wouldn't mind a kitted out van, might aswell get hydrolics fitted aswell and bounce to my customers listening to Dr.Dre😛unk:
Got an 06 plate Transit 85hp thats done 40k. I was worried that it would be underpowered but its fine.
I always get my sign writing done by the same chap. The transit only cost £200 to do last time.
