What six seat crew van would you recommend?
I have a budget of between £15000 to £17000 and don't know which LWB crew cab vehicle to buy. I would be using it primarily as a delivery van and then family vehicle. I like the look of the Vauxhall Vivaro but wouldn't rule anything out.

The Ford Transit Custom is the best mid-sized van you can get. Your budget should get you a 2016 model with a double cab, which will include a full size bulkhead that will protect your family from any shifting loads in the event of an emergency stop. It's also available in two wheelbases, which means you should be able to find one that matches your businesses needs perfectly. However, when taking out insurance, ensure it covers you for both business and social use. For more information on the Ford Transit Custom, see: vans.honestjohn.co.uk/van-reviews/ford/transit-cus.../
