I would go for the VW caddy if you can, they may be a bit more expensive but hold more and are alot easier to drive.
Are you sure that this size of van will be big enough for your courier run?

I was in the courier business for 11 years I think your mad!!!!!!:Cry:

Wouldnt be delivering big items, its mainly passports, visas, concert tickets and some clothes from catalogs. Decided to get a fiesta mk6 car and the wife can drive it too.

Whats the best sat nav to use, are they any you can put all your postcodes into at once?

 

[theblueirish]

you will use a sat nav for about a week then you will realise that it costs you more time than it saves. If you must use it don't use it until you are within a mile or two of the delivery point.

pre plannning is the most important thing you can do, find out if you have collections points later in the day, no point in going to that area twice if you don't have to and route accordingly.

If you know your c/d points the day before spend two hours on it, it will save you a few hours during the day, always have the radio on a local station so you hear about traffic congestion first, get a CB radio no one uses them much but the truckers still do, you will hear of speed traps from them.

If I can help any more give me a shout.

you might think a small van or car is all you need,but i tell you.if you make a real go of it then your gonna need a good medium to large van..Sprinter all the way in my opinion
