Peugeot Bipper Van

[Dabber]

Looking at vans and seen one of these for a reasonable price.Anyone got one ?

If so what are the good and bad points.

Too small to be usefull imo

I've not got one but I did go and have a proper look at one before I bought my transit connect. They're far too small in my opinion. As soon as the guy opened the back door I knew I'd seen enough. I know there are guys who use them but they must be making sacrifices somewhere in order to get all their gear in. And there's not much scope for additional gear (gutter vac etc) further down the line.

I accept that  might be the case.Payload is similar to other larger vans.At the moment I just use containers with backpack.Long term would be thinking of a tank in the back of the van 350litres approx.

I love my bipper got it sign written and it looks good. Space is fine if you have containers I got sound trolley, 9 containers, hose reel and some traditional bits work well

I've got a partner with a 500 litre tank which will last me all day long, now a bipper might look good to a newbie, but when you run out of water and you're getting busier you're going to need to upgrade.
Why buy twice?

The bipper is a great cheap little van it has a 375 lt tank in it very cheap to insure and runs for ever for about £10 fuel if you want to go the next size up I would go for a connect great little van I have a 500 lt tank in mine I got a you tube video as well on this lol then if you want to go bigger then go for a traffic again great van but what I like about mine I can fit all my softwashing/pressure washing  stuff in as well

Thanks everyone for all your comments and videos.Certainly gives me something to think about.Main issue is that I don't want to be thinking about upsizing after a short period of time.

Thanks Mark for the feedback.Whats the noise and vibration like when on the move.Seen a few reviews where some say it's noisy and that some have problems with their suspension.Does yours have a proper bulkhead ?
