Considering buying one but want to run one for a week first to see if it really is what I want. If this makes sense? Who rents them out though? Everywhere seems to be 'Transits'!

Not the answer you want, but we did a cheap returns deal on a camper hiace in Tasmania last year. I loved the way it drove, especially sideways on dirt! Would recommend it for that. Don't know if maybe there's a camper returns website for the UK?

Could look it up. Basically it would be a do-it-all and weekend vehicle (and potentially the only car in the house)/replacing my beloved Subaru Forester.

Would probably be cheaper than the scooby on fuel! 😉

Look up SHB 4x4, most of the construction industry seem to use them for 4x4 hire at one time or another.

Ta guys- too far south and ideally a SWB van (we'd be converting after a while)- it needs to be a van first.

hora - slightly off topic of the hire but you won't do this to the hiace will you?

forge197- thats hilarious! Stick a glass fibre effort over the top of the front of an old vehicle then add 10k to the price!

hora - it's very hard to imagine what goes through someone's mind to come up with that.
