Here we have for sale our fantastic food truck.

we obtained our busy pitch 3 years ago now and this truck has just been exceptional.

its been a tough decision to come to part with it, but we have bought an even bigger truck now for large corporate events as well as at our regular spot.

the base vehicle was converted a number of years ago now and was to a great standard.

just this year though we fully updated all the kitchen fittings and cupboards along with new stainless work tops right through. it was not a cheap job! while we were at it we added a proper commercial ice cream freezer. absolute game changer having this in the van too. We used to have extra staff in a separate ice cream van next to the van on site. no need now, hot food drinks and ice cream all from one van!

equipment in the van is as follows.

6 pan bain marie

very large water boiler burco.

4 burner hotplate, very big can handle a lot of orders at once.

large fridge,

new drinks fridge.

soft scoop ice cream freezer holds loads of stock.

LED lighting spot lights and regular lighting throughout.

everything is gas apart from the fridges.

we happily run all day with a small generator for just lighting and fridges.

to the rear of the van it holds two 19kg gas bottles. last for a good few weeks trade.

along with a space for water barrels fuel and generator.

mechanically the van is superb fully serviced this season along with many new parts for peace of mind.

the van is very well known in the north west of the country. we operate at probably one of the busiest biker and walker spots about. If you look up Langden grill food truck on face book and instagram you will see the type of food this van produces for us.

we were actually featured on the hairly bikers new tv show on episode one if you want to see the van in action!

I know its a bit of a cliché the whole " regrettable sale" but this truly is. I love this van and its given us a very good income and really helped build our reputation.

something I pray the new one will continue to do.

now then I had the van in a body shop for 2 days prior to the wrap been added.

Any signs of rust or dents or ripples were sorted before the wrap was added.

that alone with the wrap was close to £5K. the wrap is superb.

I'd love to think the new owner would keep the wood effect and simply re brand over the top of our logo.

that of course is up to you, but I'm sure the company I used would share the wrap type.

if you were to do this I would budget £1000 to get it how you want it.

worth noting when bidding.

for the last two MOT's advisories have been issued regarding some corrosion underneath. Its not even severe and not a fail but again worth budgeting £500 or so to make it mint again..

the gear knob is loose and their is a rip in the drivers seat.

that is all the negatives. it drives superb, all the doors in the kitchen are soft close and stay shut while driving.

loads of storage enough for a very very busy days trade.

viewing welcome and highly encouraged.

very proud of how well we keep it and maintain a 5 star rating.

gas certificate up to date to of course.

any questions just ask I'm an open book with this sale and want it to go to a good home,

I have seen vans at twice this price that don't have close to the ability of this unit.

exceptionally low start price it has to go now. the new van is here and its twice the size! and this one isn't small! we often have 3 staff in it on busy days.

anything please just ask.

good luck! please note this is just the van NOT the site we operate from.

you bid you buy I am honest and helpful but don't suffer fools well. Please satisfy yourself before placing a bid.
