I've just booked a Transit van for transporting our camp equipment to and from the site.
Can someone please point me at a picture of a Transit so I get some idea of how big it is - I've visions of turning up to collect it and discovering that our camp stuff won't fit into it.....

No - Transit sounds posivitely luxurious after a 7.5 tonne lorry! I'd be intimidated by the lack of internal mirror and by not being aware of how big I was - if that makes any sense, but I'm not driving it! I don't particularly like 7.5 tonne lorries for passenger comfort though - the radios don't work properly, the seats aren't particularly well designed - so it's squishy when you've got three people in the front, they're noisy and don't go very fast - just about getting up to 60 on the motorways....
It's parking them and turning them round and backing them into narrow driveways with big walls that's intimidating.
God yes! We got a tape measure out to check that the gates into the back of the shop were wide enough for the lorry to go in, and we found that there was plenty of room - then my Mum tried to reverse it in and couldn't, 'cos the road wasn't wide enough - you need space when dealing with a 7.5 tonne lorry.
