Title: need van help please,please.,., Post by: sofa----king on June 19, 2009, 06:10:13 PM got 2 identical vans being shipped to cyprus this week and how the fook do they come up with this i dont know.....
i need someone to find me the external volume size for a 2006 lwb high top sprinter.,.,please van 1 £1120 shipping van 2 £1540 shipping how the fook they got this i dont know both vans are identicl and both 2006 models.,.,.any help really appreciated .,.,.,thanks,,.,.,this was from my shipping agent. The only way that we can argue it is once the ship arrives you can re-measure it at Limassol port and if the volume is under 33m3 then this will go into the smaller van rate. If this is the case then somebody of authority (ie Bambos Psaras from the office in Limassol) will have to also measure it before the van is taken out from Limassol port so that we can contest it with the measurements from Southampton Title: Re: need van help please,please.,., Post by: cia260895 on June 19, 2009, 06:51:13 PM email manufacturers?

LWB High is 6.945m x 1.993m x 2.795m = 38.69m^3 Be surprised if an '06 is 15% smaller than an '09. Looks like you're £420 up.
