Has anyone owned a MK2 caddy van (1999) and used it to transport a bike. I am looking at one and weighing up if it is big enough to throw a bike in whole without wheels off. If anyone has any pictures that would be great.

Not had a Caddy specifically, but have had vans similar sized. They go in fine, you may have to turn the handlebars a bit or stick the wheel beside the seat if it had no bulkhead.

Had a mk1, now have a mk5, load bays are pretty much identical and i've fitted 29" full sus bikes in without dismantling them, just angling the bars/front wheel ( my own 26" goes in with just a slight turn of the bars, allowing a bungee from brake lever to seatpost to pull the wheel tight to the bulkhead, and stop any unwanted movement)

I've had my 99 since new,it's been superb. It's a bit like a Tardis,I've had 7 MTB's in back before,with front wheels and pedals off.
Here's with one :

Cant get two 27.5 enduro bikes in them with wheels on easily.

My mate used to have a mk2 Caddy for work and it once swallowed 3 bikes and me kinda inbetween/underneath them. Good vans.
