At Big Van World, we’ve rounded up some of the best used vans under £10,000, all of which offer impressive value and everyday practicality.
The Ford Transit has long been a staple of the UK van scene, and the 2020 model continues that legacy.

For those needing extra space and a bit of refinement, the 2020 Sprinter is a premium-feeling van that often slips under the £10,000 mark depending on mileage and spec. It’s highly regarded for its smooth engine, reliability, and build quality. With a well-designed cabin and large cargo area, it’s ideal for couriers and larger-scale operations. Thanks to its strong diesel engines and excellent load space, the Sprinter feels more like a premium van without the premium price.
The Vauxhall Vivaro combines everyday practicality with great fuel economy. The 2020 model benefits from a more modern design and improved tech. Its size makes it perfect for urban use, while still offering ample space for tools and equipment. It’s efficient, compact enough to manoeuvre through city streets, and offers a comfortable driving experience that appeals to both seasoned van users and newcomers.
Surprisingly, some 2022 Peugeot Partner models now fall under the £10,000 threshold, particularly those with higher mileage.

It’s perfect for lighter duties like parcel delivery or service calls, with the added bonus of modern infotainment and safety tech. It’s an economical choice, easy to drive, and modern enough to feel fresh and functional.
