    Here is an updated of my short list to help you all.
    Bailey GT 60 540/6. mtplm 1306KG, mro 1063KG, £12500ish

    Sprite major 6. mtplm, 1425, mro 1176 £12000ish

    Abbey Safari 540. MTPLM 1500, MRO 1279 £14000ish

    Swift Charisma 565. MTPLM 1490, MRO 1259KG £14000ish

    The Sprite , Abbey and swif are the same layout.
    The Bailey is the LTD edtion of the ranger range and has ton's of extra's as standard..:D
    "There is no way of justifying the extra 2K for the 2 vans" quoted by a sales man!!!
    So it is either the Bailey:cool: or the sprite:rolleyes:
    The extras you get as standard on the GT 60 is an extra £400ish on the Sprite as the diamond pack!!

    Think it depends where you live. From what I hear, they've closed the smaller branches (e.g. Carlisle) and a lot of the southern branches, but they're still trading at the "core" branches of Chorley, Delamere etc. See report here
    I really must stop loafing and get back to work...
