Nice van, get a roll bar

Yep think I will. It came with the rhino bars. I bought and fitted the ladder stops today. Looked at the roller. About £40 from rhino. Will order one I think.

spose its bound to be slower,ur losing 600cc of engine and likely gaining a heavier body.

I thought you would get a proper van like a transit lol

I'm definitely getting my van end of may and am looking at as big as I can get

Proper size tranny lwb or renault traffic if they do one big enough
