what van do you drive????

[Gary71]

Nissan NV200 good cheap van, before that over the years two old Shape Peugeot Experts(very good) and one new version(crap) averaged 50,000 miles a year in the Experts.

I have always used a company called signs and graphics in wallsend, maybe not the cheapest, but certainly one of the best around.

I don't quite get the point of spending money on a van fitting alloy wheels and having engines re-mapped?? It makes sense to have a tidy looking van but it's a utility vehicle at the end of the day. If you need to go 150mph then get a Porsche surely?

Whatever floats your boat though I suppose.:tongue3:

Got an 06 plate Transit 85hp thats done 40k. I was worried that it would be underpowered but its fine.
I always get my sign writing done by the same chap. The transit only cost £200 to do last time.

I recently bought my first van, a Citreon Berlingo. Very economical and at the moment I love it. Just thinking up ideas for the signage, thought maybe along these lines:

[ecowarm]

No it was designed by Rover before BMW took over

 

[bert large]

2006 VW Transporter 2.5 130bhp, nice and quick but shocking on fuel. Anyone know about remapping these to be more economic on the fuel without losing any power?

 

[SafeGasInstall]

yes ,swap it over for vw transporter 102bhp -i do on a full tank over 550 miles (combine city and motorway )
if on motorway only I get over 600miles

 

[SafeGasInstall]

mfgs how many miles do you get on full tank ? might need to change your driving stile ! do not drive it like a is a 911

 

[mfgs]

I get about 450 miles roughly from about £100 of fuel. town driving and a bit of motorway.

 

[SafeGasInstall]

that is a 100 miles difference
