The time has come when we need a van. We do lots of chilli shows around the country and my crv is just not up to the job, even with a roofbox and trailer.

We've finally got the list of possibles down to two types
Toyota Hiace Powervan
or
Volkswagen Transporter

They are both slightly larger than a connect/expert but smaller than a transit which is fine for us as it will double as my every day transport.

Does anyone have any experience of either. Our budget is pretty tight - about £2700. This will get us a X/Y reg Powervan but only a N/P reg Transporter.

We need something with a bit of grunt.

Anyone have experience of either? My heart says Transporter but my head says Powervan.

Thanks

I like the caddy but it is a bit small unfortunately.
