Went looking at vans today. Fuck I hate car salesman.

Reckon it's between the Iveco Daily, Ford Transit (big boy one), and an LDV Deliver 9.

Tempted by the electric version, but that initial outlay sure hurts. Also I think the range will be a problem.... 300 kilometres, but that's unloaded.

Salesmen in general are the worst.

You could stick with ICE versions for now, than trade in/buy up to battery latter on when the range is better (that's if they hold some value for later). Can't imagine the headache of having a fully loaded van and having its mileage halved.
