I'm looking for a van for use when I renovate my house, then move out.
I want something small as possible (because it will be my only vehicle
for a while) However, it must be big enough to carry 4' x 8' sheets of
plasterboard, MDF etc inside. Anyone suggest some models?
Toyota Hi-ace? Nissan Vanette? Others?

Before you go ahead, check up on the insurance situation.

It might be cheaper to get a big old Volvo estate.


It might, indeed. Thanks. Especially one with a tow bar... But why a
Volvo, in particular?


Tough and reliable, and have large load spaces, and the older ones have
reaer wheel drve which is quite good for trailer work.

Hate the bloody things meself, because nearly all the worst drivers buy
volvos, and you get tainted, but they are actually not bad cars really.
