    Well you cant fit things in the boot of a car that will easily fit in a van..

    I'v a small van, Handier than a car.... Fire anything into the back and drive on without worrying about staining/ripping the back seats. (Which I don't need anyway)

    Taxed privately so I don't get any hassle from the Guards.

    Clearly vans are normally cheaper. I tax my van privately as i use mine for private purposes and i dont break the law. Plus it was 20 euro more but when the doe is due on mine ill be doing it. Mine is an astra van and the equivalent car version is double the price thats why i bought a van.

    No, If you tilt the seats at a 45 degree angle, It'll give better weight distribution and make your car faster.

    FACT!



    Seriously, I don't need back seats hence the van.... Dropping the seats won't (In most cases) give a flat loading space the same as a proper van.

    I can fire anything into it without damaging the upholdstery, Just wash the lining and plastics if it gets dirty.

    Simples.

    Your missing the point vans are normally way cheaper than equivalent cars. And they are handy to just throw stuff in the back off
