Van Hire for france trip

[carpmandan]

Hi looking for a good van hire company to take 5 anglers gear to france. We will also be taking a car for anglers. So only need a transit type van that can fit two anglers in as well as gear.

Any help would be great

where you based mate, five loads of gear in one transit will be bloody tight going

Even a LWB one??? Not everyone takes a trailer when they go?? Or was that levi??

[goblin]

no that was me,and it really is likely to be a tight fit. lay all your gear out and times it by five then add all that bait etc etc.

and I use a trailer because I do very very very long sessions frequently, not two night hits

was where you are nearly twenty tears ago mate and I sympathise, I really do. does all pan out though if you plan your money out right, worked my nads off for a long time with a goal in mind, and very very nearly there now

Its not the money!! its the time!! GF, friends, work, family!!

never made any assumptions to the contrary mate

I understand...Work your nads of so the misses can live a life of lesuire, then i get to go fishing all the time!!!

 

Even better, get rid!! (please no-one tell her i said that)

 

Anyway, back to the topic, there are loads of companys out there mate, I use 1van1 when i need to hire vans for the site crews at work. Pretty reasonable, give them a ring and ask about overseas usage tho.

if you can get a long wheel base merc sprinter no problem getting the kit in that

I know a guy who has a merc sprinter and does drive out parties to france for carpin trips - very reasonable if a full vehicle.

Drop me a pm if interested

[carpmandan]

Cheers for all the replies fellas luck just so has it that a freind of a freind fancys this trip and would be willing to drive and wait for it in his merc sprinter thank you carp god.

Five of us went in April in a long wheel based transit with a cabin for a week. We filled it to the roof and we didn't take much food and bait as that was supplied at the lake. The cabin takes up about 1/3 of the space in the back.
