Renault trafic

[van cleef]

I've finally got to a point, where I need a bigger van at work to replace my VW caddy. I've been offered a great trade in deal against my van for an ex demonstrator Renault trafic sport with all the extras and 145bhp to boot.....

Here's the catch it's bamboo green, when intitally I was looking for a white one where my sign writing is darkish grey and red. I'm trying to convince myself it'll stand out fron the crowd but I'm not 100% on it.

Just wondering if anyone one else has one or has an opinion?... I'm going to decide tomorrow.

If it wasn't for the spec and price I wouldn't of even considered it.... but with the usual white vans with their own livery, people might take a bit more notice, not that I need the extra work at the moment but you never know when things might go quieter.

I've got no idea how popular the colour was as a factory option, or how it may be effected when I eventually change into another van a few years down the line

Bamboo green is ace, stunning colour in the flesh.

The 145 is a great engine too.

I assume it’s a sport spec? Gives you everything you probably want, any extras? The reverse camera used to be £50 which was a steal!

Has everything bar the reverse camera. I'm really torn about taking it on... one minute I think I'll take then I start looking at other vans.

Yes it is the sport.

How much is it?

£ 14k plus the VAT which was my budget... the salesman is pitching it as having all the toys but I'll have to see it in the flesh to go over everything.

Cheers for that as there's a lot of good information there.....I'm going to have to check with the salesman what it all has in regards to extras.... it's an ex demonstrator and was registered just after the 17 plate vehicles were released.it is ply lined which is a small bonus.

The camera isn't something I'd considered but I'm not fussed if it has it or not either way.


I still haven't decided on the van... it's just convenient that it's right on my doorstep.
