What sort of van will MK Indy kit fit in???

I've now got a collection date for my Indy and am frantically trying to sort out a van to hire. Unfortunately I'm off on hols now for a week or so and need to get it done sharpish as picking up on my first day back.

I called Enterprise (cos I get a big wedge of a discount through work) but they can only guarantee a transit (SWB) although they said it is 50/50 that they can do me a LWB or "large commerical" just depends how busy their corporate customers are?

Anyways, I'm ranting about a load of tosh now so.....will Indy kit fit in a swb tranny or what?? Or should I just pony up the dough and go elsewhere and book something bigger?

Long wheel base jobby should do the trick. I had a VW LWB van and it was great! Turbo deisel and boy did it shift!

To be honest a SWB van you would struggle with. The LWB i seem to remember was just big enough!

I ended up using a Mercedes Luton van when I collected mine, Fitted in great but my got it drank more than me, 15mpg on the way there and 20mpg on the way home.

Ended up costing more than it would have if MK delivered the kit straight to me.
