TIGHTCHOKE Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 Most manufacturers make small vans, usually big enough to accept a standard pallet in the load space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diver One Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 Sounds very similar to what a local joiner has. I will have a look next time I'm passing, however I think his is a Suzuki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good shot? Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 (edited) Could it be the Suzuki Carry Van. If so ,thanks to Diver One. or a Volkswagen Caddy Maxi? Edited May 7, 2020 by Good shot? pic added Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diver One Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 We used to have them at work....forgot about that. Also,the Bedford rascals are the same vehicle i think the joiner I mentioned has the newer version the old ones were no good if you are over about 5'9" as the roof is low and you have to slump in the seat to see through windscreen. Also seat position is fixed and quite uncomfortable the really early ones were same as in the Sooty show. The only reason we had them was my late father saw an advert that said "£2000 discount if you trade in a working vehicle" so we towed the knacked vans to just around here he corner from the dealership then 'limped' it around the corner in clouds of smoke Just googled them .....I think the joiners is a Suzuki Carry ( NOT Super Carry ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldypigeonpopper Posted May 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 (edited) hello, thanks for replies, sorry not like the ones mentioned, it reminded me what my gamekeeper friend used with gear lever change under dash, small wheels/ box shape, high ground clearance, low front, Edited May 7, 2020 by oldypigeonpopper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Best Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 Yeah, keepers used to love the Renault 4 vans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KronKron Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 ANy idea on the age of the van ? or the size of the van? I know you said its a newish, daf type but if its an older/smaller van it could be something like a Renault Kangoo 4x4 as they still look relatively new style.

Fishing Richie Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 Could it have been an LDV Cub which was a re badged Nissan Vanette. You sat over the engine and it was quite noisy inside the cab I had one as a hire vehicle from work a few times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
