How much have you got to spend?
New or used?

how about this........... http://www.cleanersclassifieds.com/classifieds.php?a=2&b=16591

£5000 to buy, plus £500 to go and view/buy, plus £1000 shipping, plus £1500 duty/vat = £8000

less £900 vat back

Less £4000 sale of van

total outlay = £3100 plus you get an adventure / hassle buying it depending which way you look at it.

Jason i dont think £3,100 for a 98 crossfire with 3500 hrs is that great a deal.

more like £2k.

If your going 2nd hand make sure you can get parts asap.  Also IMO get a machine who your local supplier can fix.  So if its Prochem get a Prochem machine.  You should get a 2nd hand machine for £3500 easily enough but you WILL have to do repairs on them.

Definately get one a local supplier can repair as Mark says, i bought new last september and have had one minor problem,but had i not been able to pop in locally i would have lost a day during the xmas rush.

I almost bought one on  a low price from further away but didn't like the PRE sales care and from what i've heard since i would probably have been taking it back a lot more and not earning !
