Now, am I the only one to think that the van should A) Be completely in the pictures, and B) Remotely clean?!

It's a work horse, most people arent fussed.
E.g. My cousin had a 53 Van exactly the same as that but blue.
The guy came to buy it, took it for a test drive and ALL he wanted to know was "does the bluetooth work on the £40 ebay radio?"

Seeing as it's a work's van it'll have been thrashed somewhat 
It seems to have a tree growing out of it though, maybe that's why only the top half is in the pictures

I personally think he is just hiding his reg plate.

I can tell he's hiding his reg plate, and appreciate it's a workhorse, but surely the idea is to try and make it remotely presentable?!

I'd love a little van like that, be good for work and generally mincing around

They are good vans - I've got a 75ps SWB one which will be getting remapped to 95ps at the end of the year. Has done me well lugging all my gear around, but just lacks a bit of grunt from time to time.
Would love to get a Caddy now though - a mates got one and for a van, it's class!

Not big enough - smaller internally than my SWB Connect, which is now becoming a tad too small for me already. A Caddy is v similar sized but seems to have a better internal capacity to fit stuff in (main aim is to be able to fit a generator too)

The caddy is a brilliant van. We have a 57 plate one and i have been all over the country...can do stupid speeds for hours and hours and is very comfortable for a van. Feels very solid to drive
