      UPDATED 😃 👌 Got my Ambulance, 6 new tires, fresh MOT, a good service, rang me to say it was ready, and would early delivery be OK? Of Course! It is 100% as described, AND they did all the stuff they said they would, shopping for it through their HUGE range, they gave me freedom to browse ALL their stock (not just ambulances, they've got LOADS of cool stuff) answered all my silly and endless questions, showed me vans that were in their workshops having various things done, windows hatchways etc, and even took the time to say ' come and look at our PERSONAL vans, and see what we've done and can do! And their delivery driver was a top Fella, didn't even want a brew, but dropped the Ambulance (now called Mort) off, and collected my trade in, they have been MEGA helpful, genuine friendly and didn't apply pressure, just gave me options 😉 pics are just SOME of their Stock!!!!

      Absolutely Brilliant Experience – 100% Recommended! I recently bought a second-hand V, from Base Vans, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, the whole process was absolutely seamless. Rupert was brilliant – incredibly helpful, honest, and an all-round great guy to deal with. He made everything easy and stress-free, and I felt 100% confident and looked after throughout. The service was professional yet personal, and it's clear that Rupert and the team genuinely care about what they do. The van itself was exactly as described, in top condition, and the whole transaction was smooth and efficient. If you're thinking of buying a van, I highly recommend Base Vans. Trustworthy, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to deal with. Five stars all the way!

      We bought an ex police riot van from Basevan. Rupert was very helpful even delivered up to Scotland. Efficient and easy to deal with

      It’s been lovely to have met Rupert, Robbie, and the team — they’ve been nothing but professional from the very beginning. They even helped with recovery and sourcing a mechanic when my car broke down on my very first trip to Basevan (haha, what an introduction!). Since then, they’ve continued to offer open communication and support, even after my purchase, which has been incredibly helpful during my camper conversion. Thank you again for your time, patience, and for handling my many, many enquiries. I hope to see you again once the conversion is complete, (or maybe during its making 😉 ) it would be great to share the end result and reflect on the collective effort that helped bring my vision of my Van to life.

      I bought a van from these guys last year, November, and I promised to give a review after after 3 months. First and foremost, the purchase process was as easy and smooth as you can get anywhere, I'll give 5 stars for this. Secondly, the van was in superb shape and was sold at a very reasonable price. It was purchase and drive. Again, a 5 stars for this. Thirdly, post purchase support. I'll give this a 4 stars because of how the conversation started, but Rupert and his team handled it so well in the end that I didn't have any complain anymore. I enjoyed the van like it was near new until it was sadly stolen in Sheffield a couple of days ago. I will surely recommend Basevan and will definitely patronise them again if I need to. Thanks, Rupert and Team.
