Perfect Plumbing Van

[Barry Sparks]

Worked in France down near rochelle for several years and you are supposed to be registered pity half the trades men don,t also time keeping terrible . Probably why most French people when they find good English trades man prefer to use them than there own country men.Back to vans the larger citreon,Peugeot and fiat are ford based ie running gear and engines usually several thousand pounds cheaper good van. Best van test drove Hyundai five year warranty servicing costs reasonable after sales excellent.

Okay, you're all wrong and blatantly know nothing about what to look for in a perfect plumber's van.

This bloke, however, has got the whole problem nailed!

And yes, he's a real plumber.

Like to see him carry a 3m length of pipe. Or better still a bundle of it. Ha.

The french mainly use coiled copper or 2m lengths!!

also sizing is in both id and od
so you have 8/10, 10/12, 12/14,14/16, 20/22 and 26/28

Great because you can slide them into each other and braze them (not solder) instead of using reducers.

you can slide 12/14 into 14/16!

Very informative mate. Would be nice to have that over here actually.

Copper is thicker too, and easier to work with.

6 bar dynamic pressure is quite normal.

agricultural mains can be triple that.

Nothing wrong with it fella, where's the other half of the roof rack though?

I like the cable ties on the hub caps!! Is that so they don't fly off or do you live in a rough area

ID happy? You do free quotes? That's just dragging the trade down. We all charge £75 for a quote....

I've got a 53 plate vauxhall combo, that was used by the post office and then scuba diving in the UK (very cold and dark), so, I've got an excellent cd player with ipod attachments, upgraded speakers and (very essex) a 1000watt sub (not the underwater type)in the rear.

No room for plumbing stuff but it sounds good.


Seriously though, I wish it were slightly bigger, its already full.

I've a yellow robin reliant. It struggles with transporting baths, I've fitted a roof rack. Cheap as chips. It's yours for a good price. Does me proud son.
