    With vans you do need to shop around, Mate runs a market stall, selling bedding etc.

    His van mostly goes from his home to the storage yard then onto the market pitches. Very little traffic around the time of day he travels and its not parked when it gets bumped and scraped.

    Weight when loading is never an issue so his vans are always in good nick when he sells them. Because they get light use and mostly cover a fair distance each day he does tend to hang onto them until close to 200,000 miles though.
