I’ve definitely settled on an iveco daily Luton truck.
There’s surprisingly quite a few around. Over 3.1/2 ton, automatics, & euro 6. although they are bigger than I wanted with a 20’ body 7’6” wide and nearly 8’ tall,& a (xlwb) 5.1meter wheel base, making the vehicle 27feet long. The ideal would be 4.4m wheel base and a 15’ body.
I’ve seen several on eBay, with miles anywhere from 50k up to 250k & not a lot of difference in price?
There‘s a few that are coming up for auction next week, at The Fleet Auction Group in Leicester. anybody bought from a auction? & online I believe. last time I bought from auction I was 20. & I’m not really sure buying without seeing & test driving would be very sensible.
Also when I find the right one & I’m negotiating the price how much below the asking price do you offer?. Say it’s advertised at £25,000, would it be acceptable to offer £20.000? Or would that insult the seller?
i’ve seen them priced anything from 12 to 15,000 up to 30,000. most are excurry‘s home delivery vans.
The Euro 6 started in 2017 with the 3lt engine & 8speed Hi-matic auto box so it’s got to be newer than that.
iv always believed that condition of the body work is more important than mileage, but I still don’t wanna go over 100 thousand miles. We’ve found one which I’m going to view next week.
so wish me luck
