Hi
I was a blue van man for a long time after leaving the TV trade. I covered Scotland from Aberdeen to Inverness, Perth, Dundee, Edinburgh, Stirling, Falkirk Glasgow, Ayrshire and as far as Galashiels and and all the bits in between. Did 40 to 60,000 miles a year, 6 am starts on many occasions and 19.00 returns home with the odd overnight stay. I never had the issues on the road as now. My old VW T4 made it to 300,000 miles until the crank pulley lost its keyway and the valves hit the pistons. It was replaced with a smaller van a 2012 Fiat Doblo which I had till 2015. It was fine for me but did a big mileage as I was concentrating on Arnold Clarks Scottish outlets. I did see with the Doblo disrespect from others on the road whereas the T4 didn't attract the bullies.
