The V5 shows my van's "mass in service" as 2213 kg, but I'm not quite sure how that relates to "unladen weight".
Is mass in service = unladen weight + 75kg (for the driver), plus the weight of the fuel when tank @ 90% full?
If so, then my van's unladen weight = 2213 - (75 + 60) = 2078kg - i.e. doesn't qualify as dual purpose.
I would have to have another look as it’s a while ago now but when I worked it out for mine (6.1 t32 Kombi) it came in under the maximum weight - I’ve got a feeling that I haven’t got ‘mass in service’ on my log book so did it from the vw brochure. I’ll have another look when I get a minute.
My van's a LWB - probably accounts for the extra weight.
First clean and wax this year.
Enjoy it being clean for about 10 miles...
damn black vans!!
Not me but my youngest gave the bus a clean as he said it was an embarrassment (cheeky git)
He’s done a good job! If it were embarrassing every weekend you’d be onto a winner.
Poor lad does it nearly every weekend along with the other 3 cars we have in the household. He loves cleaning them and does a cracking job but it cost me a fortune on products.
First clean and wax this year. A bit windy though.
Yes I know it won't stay clean for 5 minutes, but in my opinion, there is no better colour than black when cleaned and waxed.Enjoy it being clean for about 10 miles...
Just the products? No labour charge? He is a good lad.
Van has had a lovely trip on the back of a flatbed recovery truck as the clutch pedal has decided to hit the floor and not return back!! The nice AA patrol man has informed me it's probably the cylinder in the box as its leaking once the brake fluid is topped up and pressure applied. Now sat at a garage waiting to be picked up by the wife. I think it's gonna be an expensive fix!!
No because he's got me round his little finger and gets what he wants anyway.Just the products? No labour charge? He is a good lad.
At least he is getting out the house and doing something productive, not like most kids these days that want to sit on the backside all day.No because he's got me round his little finger and gets what he wants anyway.
