Commercial vans have come a long way over the past few years not just in terms of their safety features and fuel efficiency but also their aesthetic appeal and style. With many van owners now making use of their vehicle for both work and personal use, the major manufacturers have come up with a range of vans that you can be proud to be seen in whether it’s for personal or business use. Out top 5 range of stylish vans are as follows.
1. VW Transporter
The reason why I have opted for this is due to the fact it’s a VW and has the iconic badge at the helm, we have these vehicles in stock, available in white or metallic silver (for an additional cost of £450.00+ VAT) with the added bonus of an (S) pack which includes , Alarm, Bulkhead and Electric pack, they also have superb ride and handling and best of all is the resale value of these vehicles, if serviced regularly and maintained properly these vehicles can go on forever and still hold their value, we have also noticed that many customers who purchase these vehicles want to convert into campervans.
2. VAUXHALL VIVARO
I would go for one of these all day long as they come with a fantastic specification, ie, Alloys, Air-conditioning, colour coded bumpers, chrome mirrors and electric mirrors and windows as standard, most customers we speak to want to get away from the stereo-typical “White van man” so we have these available in Black or Silver metallic, they look and drive superbly, they tend to hold their value a lot more than the standard models due to what you get for your money.
We have these models in stock from £12995.00 + RFL + VAT (Brand new) with some exciting finance packages to match whether it be Hire Purchase to Full payout lease deals, in my opinion I would lease as the tax benefits are second to none, no mileage restrictions and no balloon payments at the end, and best of all is every single payment you make on a lease is 100% tax deductible so basically the Tax man pays for it, now that can be too bad can it?
3. RENAULT TRAFIC
Just like the Vauxhall Vivaro Sportive, these come with a very high standard spec, Alloys, Aircon, Electric pack, Full steel bulkhead, Thatch am Cat 1 alarm and immobiliser to name a few, the alloys for me really set the trend with this vehicle, it goes from being a good van to a great van, especially if you opted for a metallic colour, very stylish, drives like a car due to the dash board mounted 6-speed gearbox.
The engine has been upgraded from a 1.9 Dci 100ps to a 2.0 Dci 115ps so the power is still there even with a full load, great residual value too, like the Sportive tends to hold its value more due to the build and specification.
4. FIAT SCUDO
We get a lot of enquiries on this vehicle from business users who are usually plumbers, gas installers etc.. due to their versatility, they come with twin side loading doors as standard which most customer seem to want, also a payload of 1200Kg, which is an added bones, they also come with a dual passenger seat and a ladder frame bulkhead which protects the driver, load length is 2254mm or you could opt for the LWB model which has a load length of 2584mm and comes with a 2.0 Multijet 130ps engine which in my eyes is a flying machine, very powerful, but all in all a great looking vehicle with power to match.
5. FIAT DOBLO
This vehicle has made the grade out of the small panel vans due to it MPG it turns out a staggering 56.5 Mpg, extremely economical on the motorway or the busy city streets, it has the best payload of 750Kg, great!! compared to other vehicles in its size and class, we have these in stock ready to go from £6495.00 + VAT, 2011 11 plates, mileages starting from 12,000 miles all with one owner, ply lined and full service history, again with finance packages to suit all customers needs, Hire Purchase, full payout lease deals, these vehicles have an abundance of storage space and an excellent driving position.
