Has anyone got any pictures of a wfp setup in a nemo bipper or fiorino.
Can't decide on my next van for a single operator (350-400 tank)
Thanks Paul

i use a memo but i have a trolley system and carry ten barrels easily and securely. no photos I'm afraid

350l-400l in a van with a 600kg payload?, going to be a bit tight isnt it?!. Would be more sensible to go up a size to get a van with a payload better suited to a tank of that size. The difference in economy would be marginal at best.

The payload is 660 kg which is more than a base model berlingo ;)
450kg tank & Frame leaving 210kg for driver & fuel ect

They used to be 610kg, must have uprated them!. But just bear in mind that the quoted payload can often have an extremely tenuous link to what you can actually put in there. My lwb transit connect has a 900kg payload, i have a 500l diy setup in the back and i dont carry a huge amount of other stuff. A while ago i went over the weighbridge of one of my customers (a large farm) with a full tank and was shocked to find that i was within 40kg of my gvw!. That is why i would always suggest going for a bigger payload than you think you need, and would still say you would be better off with a doblo (750kg) or partner/berlingo (the 850kg version). But of course, that is just my opinion....... ::)roll :)

A friend of mine uses one for antac,they don't have a system fitted just trolley and barrels.
He rates them as a good van,in my opinion and from what I have seen unless your doing retail only work they are to small the pole has to be stored in the back of the van and goes under passenger seat.I think jv price may have had a couple.

The berlingo 850 kg is probably the one i will get so if one van is down I could double up in one van for a few days if needed.
I think the nemo is i bit short for a 30+ft pole plus fitting the backpack ect in thats why i wondered if anyone had any pictures of a fitted out van
Thanks Paul

450kg for water 20kg for tank 25kg for frame 5kg for battery.50kg for other tools.40kg for diesel.
70kg left why risk it?

I looked at the nemo, they are a very nice van, compact and not expensive. Inside is comfortable too with some clever seat folding thing.
Unfortunately payload is just nowhere near big enough, shame! I also suspect the actual load area is a bit too small.
I got a VW Caddy instead, double side doors and nice big payload for my 400 litre system. superb van the caddy is, highly recommend.
My advice would be, there's no use getting a van that doesn't have enough payload or space for a decent size system. You'll be kicking yourself later!
