DamanC Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Looking out for a small van. Nothing fancy, just for carting computers about really. I have a budget of just £1500 and want something cheap to run and insure.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I have an old 1.4L petrol citroen berlingo that refuses to die, (used daily by one of my lads and not been serviced for 3 years) seems a good little van, never had one problem with it, just fill with petrol and top the oil up now and then, done 180k now.
