van that will hold 8x4 sheets

[bobasd]

yeah, under the seat into the footwell and trapdoors can only do so much.
false floors to can be well handy but mfrs dont help there either - they just want you to buy bigger vans.
the thing about the good idea is thatthe van would come custom made for long stuff and seat safety.

good idea but will they supply sky hooks for your tools

Magnets

Use different seat materials & perhaps at greater cost to manufacture.

That is why.

steel retaining bar would obviously be required to stop the sheets sliding forward when the vehicle reduces speed.
The benefit of this in, say, a short wheel base VW transporter, would be that the entire vehicle could be 670mm shorter which, if put into production as an additional model, would open up an entire new market segment.

And no one would buy 1 except you.

It seems to me that the excellent quality entire VW Caddy range could then be dropped from production

Sure VW will be up for all that nonsense

The citron relay is apparently best for security having deadlocks as standard

Doesn't stop them unfortunately.

Thank you guys for taking the time to reply,i will now go have a look at the transit van.Looks a good bet if you get 40 mpg plus takes the sheets,i dont trash them iether so i hopefuly wont get much less mpg

Some people I know who have the newer customs say they get terrible MPG but I have a 2010 85T280 and that's does around 40 MPG.
