Hi Fellas
Have been looking at getting a small tank around the 150 - 200ltr size. However the dimensions I need for it to fit nicely with other equipment aren't ideal for the tanks I have seen.
The upright tanks are to high and the flat tanks too wide, I need something in between these as would need to be a bit higher than the flat tank to allow it to be slightly narrower if that makes sense. Does anyone know of any tanks made inbetween these two.
Thanks, Tom

Thanks for that mate looks good, out of interest mate what size tank did you go for and did that count as professionally fitted? Did that affect your insurance at all?
Just curious as I've also got a connect.
Thanks, Tom

150-200l seems a bit small to me?. I have a 500l tank in my connect lwb 230, and while i have thought i could get away with downsizing, i certainly wouldn't go for anything smaller than 350l.
But, look up watertanksdirect.co.uk, they have a huge range of tanks for all different uses. They do a 210l tank which may be suitable for what you want, its dimensions are 420mm x 630mm x 920mm, and that can be had as a flat, upright, or tower.

Hi m8 i have the transit connect LWB 230 High roof, i think payload is 920 k i have a 417 litre flat tank and yes was professionally fitted with vat receipt so if any thing did happen (hope not) he will be accounted for as he stated on invoice professionally fitted with steel frame and is bolted to chassis
and it drives perfect flat tanks are a lot better than upright as the weight is spread low so makes driving a lot better.
He can make a tank as where you want it and any shape you want
Hope this helps m8 gig your email m8 i can send some pics of mine over

The reason I'm looking for a smaller size Simon is that I have the swb with a payload of 625kg and will still be carrying some barrels as on some jobs I need the trolley system. Thanks for that link the tank there looks like it could well be perfect!
Cheers S.W.C that looks really good might be the route I end up going down.
Jista its quirketom91@gmail.com, really appreciate it if you could send those over mate that would be a great help.
Thanks everyone again very helpful. Tom
