Smallest Van possible
 

Hi there, I know I asked a similar question to this recently but this one is diffrent, promise :)

Whats the smallest van that you can get one normal sized bikes + kit in comfotabley, two normal bikes at a push. It would be nice if there was space for one of the bikes to be an motocross, but its not essential. The bikes must go in whole.

If people are wondering why, I am probaly moving to london and I dont want to make the parking nightmare any worse. It would be really nice to have somthing with a footprint smaller than an estate, I have owned an Omega before and city parking in that was a nightmare. Also I figured a smaller vecihle is less likley to wind up the negibours if it there all year + they seem to be cheaper to buy, run and insure

At the moment VW transporter/merc Vito springs to mind.

One of those Sooty & Sweep bedford/suzuki rascal vans :D

I think you'd struggle with a rascal unfortunately. They really are tiny! Have you got a garage in London?

No 99% its going to be street parking, I havent even got a house yet.

I have sadley seriously considered it. On reflection I dont think a trip to scotland would be much fun and I think two bikes + driver would probaly weight more than the van, even if they fitted.

I wouldn't move to London if I was you, ****ty place ;)

Personally I think I would get a Merc Vito van, the one with seats as well then just take them out when I wanted to take the bike out and about.

i've had my sv in the back of a Daihatsu hijet and still done 70 on the motorway, they're alot of fun even when not loaded up, had it off the clock and on two wheels and they drift!!!

I saw 2 bikes on the back of a VW Caddy once, but it looked pretty dodgy tbh.

the pug expert is good.......... & you should get 2 bikes in the back (have you got a garden ?)
