    Yeah brand new, have it 6 months now, 14 1 reg.
    You could get a better deal with a deposit and if you financed, but I hadn't got a deposit. It's flexible, so I could get a 15 1 van in January, or switch to a smaller/ bigger van anytime. I ll see how I'm fixed in January.

    looking for new, cant afford to be off the road with breakdowns, thats why I thought the leasing or pcp rout would suit me, maybe change every 3 years,

    I ll be going for used, I was thinking ex fleet about 3 years old, I might go smaller than transporter, maybe caddy or similar, I know they sell a lot of them at Wilson's auctions.
