Day van for under £6k?. where do I start ..lol

The floor in a Berlingo etc MPV isn't flat though, so even if you take out the mid row you don't really get a lot of space. You'd need to go up to the Spacetourer/Vivaro, or to imports like the Alphard to get something with usable space.

Sure parts can take time to get but the same can be said of pretty mundane parts at the moment. Is it going to be OP's only vehicle or a 2nd vehicle?

If the intention is just to have somewhere dry to get some hot food, then any estate car with a boot awning would probably do it, and the money saved will buy a lot of fish n' chips.

Interesting.. I got quotes for 3 vans (vivaro, dispatch and T4 and with 3 people in the policy it would cost me between £350 and £400 a year. The minimum for a japanese Alphard was £650!

Chrysler Voyager or Grand Voyager would work and be in your budget.
£4.5k gets you this: https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202605042105987
Take out the middle seats and job done.

I don't know if it's my eyes, but that one looks like three different cars welded together.

The front, middle and back are all different colours.

Perhaps the real colour is that thumb print in paint of the tailgate release switch.

I'm still convinced you're not going to get a decent van in that price range.

It'd put that down to poor lighting and shadows, everything seems reasonably well lined up, but it's also quite an old high mileage car so it could be anything.
