£10 - £15 a week in my new little Peugot Partner. Probably more in the summer when I intend to sit in it with the air-con on to cool off between jobs.

I was topping up once a fortnight at a cost of about £70.  My last fill up cost me £80.  Also, I am working more now so that fill up seems to last more like 11 or 12 days.  A bit of personal use comes out of this too.  I suppose it averages out at about £6.50 a day.

MODIFIED TO PROVIDE MORE DETAIL.

My vehicle is a Renault Trafic van and has a 1.9D engine (100 dci).  It contains an 800 litre tank but doesn't have more than 700 litres in it in case of overload.  This van is the 2.9 tonne version (most are 2.7 tonne).  Obviously mileage varies but it is about 10 - 11,000 per year.

Good post , one thing wrong with it though , it would be a great help to all of those wishing to purchase a van shortly , to know ........
The vehicle used , engine size , age , water carried .

Me for instance , VW Transporter , 2001 , 2.5 TDI ,88BHP , 425 L of water , never cost me more than £100 per month , reckon i do about 35 mpg .

thanks for good reply  I was thinking of Toyota hiace or Transit to carry a tank maybe about 650l
I thought maybe it could cost unnecessary fuel driving water around you don't use.
