Your key concerns when buying a used van should be your practical needs. What will you be transporting with your van? Will it be people; will it be the tools of your trade? Perhaps it will be to move large pieces of furniture or goods. If you can pin down one primary task that you'll be using it for, you'll be better positioned to find your ideal used van.
If you're looking for raw capacity and practicality, look for one of the larger panel vans featuring a tall cabin and wide loading space. It's also important to consider body length - not only for the luggage you will be loading, but for where you will be storing your van. If you don't have a large garage or long drive, make sure you don't opt for a very long van that you're going to have to park far away from your work or home.
By the same token, if you're going to be storing work tools and other potentially costly goods, you'll need a van with good security. Ideally, it's best not to store valuables in your van, but sometimes you will need to. So, make sure you find a van that comes with an advanced locking system, a good alarm and even glazed windows. One of the key benefits of buying a second hand van - even a cheap used van - is that the previous owner is likely to have modified their van to include a number of these safety precautions already. If they haven't, factor in how much added budget you may need to add on these features.
Whether looking for raw practicality and ability, or a smooth ride and comfort, there's a used van for sale that will fit your needs. Thanks to good variation, a number of different options and excellent value for money, you'll find the perfect van in no time.

Vans aren't typically bought for leisure. They're large, functional and above all practical. But that doesn't mean that there's no variation on the market. When buying a used van today, there is a great selection of vehicles that can offer you everything from impressive load lugging ability, to remarkable people moving space, to rugged multipurpose adventurer.
Chances are if you are in the market for a second hand van, you'll be looking for a supremely practical vehicle that you're going to be using for commercial means. You're in luck, there's plenty on offer. Whether you're running a large and busy operation with a number of people, or if you're a one-man band and need a wagon for yourself and the tools of your trade, there are options to suit.
You'll also be happy to know that modern vans have come a long way since their early days. This means more efficient engines - 40mpg is an attainable figure in some of the more economical diesels - better equipment, and an all round more comfortable drive.
If you're in the market for something a little more family friendly, it's best you look at a people carrier or even a 4x4, but for the commercial workhorse, there are few better options.
Probably the biggest differentiator in the van market is size. At the one end of the scale is the panel van, which can top the scales at a whopping five tonnes and pack a meaty 180bhp. At the other end are compact vans, such as the Peugeot Partner, which can offer you bags of space as well as passenger practicality with its five seats. One of the most popular vans on the market is undoubtedly the Ford Transit, which remains one of the best large vans out there. Thanks to it being such a popular and prevalent model, you're certain of finding one on the used car market for a great price.
All of the major commercial van manufacturers offer automatic options for their most popular van models. Automatic vans can make it easier to drive around town and resale values tend to be stronger. Use our filter search to select “Automatic Transmission” and you will be able to see the current stock available with our featured dealers. If you are after a specific make or model you can narrow your search further.
Having three seats upfront gives you added flexibility and is a popular option. You can carry three workmates or use the wider bench seat to provide further space in the front of the cabin. Most 3 seater vans tend to be larger panel vans but you can find small vans such as the Peugeot Partner that offer more than two seats. To find the vans available with three seats use our seating capacity filter and select the 3 seats option.
Electric vans are growing in popularity especially for usage within urban areas or for jobs which require driving short distances. Do consider your range especially when towing or carrying heavy equipment. With fewer parts than diesel or petrol vans and cheaper running costs, purchasing an electric vehicle is becoming more attractive to many van owners. To see all electric vans for sale use our fuel type filter and select “electric”.
Most manufacturers offer a small van within their range. Popular models include the Ford Transit Connect, the Volkswagen Caddy, the Citroen Berlingo, the Vauxhall Combo and the Renault Combo. Some of these vehicles can be the most economical to buy whilst others have payloads over a tonne. Search by brand or by engine size or if you have a specific small van model in mind use our free search to narrow down your search. Older vehicles usually have petrol or diesel engines from 1.2 litres to 20.0 litres with newer vans also offering hybrid or electric options. For small vans near to you just add your postcode to show those vans which are closest to your home.
