Thank you!
I knew there’s a chance for it to be answered somewhere else, but after a couple of days of looking I thought best to ask.
I have read the first thread on “Maintenance costs” and there was some valuable info there. I hadn’t seen the one on “Truck servicing”; excellent insight on each type of service provider. And thank you very much for the additional answers.
As for what you said, the insurance seems to be the biggest obstacle / expense. Somewhere along the lines of £20k just to start off with the van and the insurance. Sigh…
