I want a van that can carry three push bikes vertically in the back.

What would be the best, smallest van that would do that? I suppose the vertical height is going to be the problem. Has it really got to be a full size Transit type thing?

A long-ish 29er mountain bike is about 2m with wheels on. Road bike more like 1.7m ish.

Berlingo/Doblo sized is OK if you allow a bit of room to go diagonal or turn bars slightly.

Nv200

long, not too wide and the 1.5 renault diesel so should be cheap to run, but no good if 3 bikes also means 3 passengers
