Currently I work out of my Vauxhall Cavalier, that was bought cash.

Next year Im moving onto something like a Renault Kangoo, most likely from an auction house, that'll be cash too.

I don't know what the difference is between half of those anyway.

I just pay for my van every month, then a payment in 3 or 4 years.
Couldn't tell you what the agreement's called. ???

Is that the same as that Citreon Dispatch thing?

There's one broken down with the bonnet up on the busiest junction in Chepstow right now and it's causing chaos.

I've got a Scudo jonesy (same as expert), and they are  the tool for job.A thread on this acclaimed it the best wfp van for a number of reasons.

I carry a 400l tank, no DI and fill up at half time from IBC. I also carry ladders and it is a very good working height to remove them from.

I keep seeing a vivaro round chepstow with a whacking great yellow duck on the side. What's that all about?

It seems most people have bought outright like i have
The reason i do this is so i know the vehicle is mine no matter what and also i dont have to make prolonged payments for a vehicle

Its a lease agreement Squeaky.

You basically rent the vehicle for 3-5 years and at the end of the agreement you can either buy it at the agreed residual price or hand it back and start a new lease agreement on a new van.
