@@stevebills22 The 80p from last video you refer to is actually a unique day, using large van to do a small job - average day on cx for luton is £400 however we don't run on cx everyday. Also your cost's are very high - we pay similar amount for cx but for 3 vehicles! (I've read on fb group courier's hub self employed members pay around £800) fuel is 1.36 per liter this week. Based on your comment I would suggest going on a flat VAT rate, you can boos up your revenue and look for a decent fuel card supplier. Please look for other sources of work, as great as CX is I wouldn't use it for 100% of revenue.

Many factors influence the price, I can't really say what you specifically can get. We just renewed cx despite it only contributing 1/4 of our monthly revenue.

I think bigger is better 😌 we run 4 vans now and 2 are on cx, Luton and Small transit courier. Big van always gets minimum of 2 jobs while small sometimes runs empty home. As for the brands, we have recently scrapped this combo, while searching for replacment I have been very impressed with fords so I'll recommend them but a lot of equipment on them is optional, look out for high spec versions 😉 also Connect might be a better choice, we had 2 issues on cx so far, customer asked for small van but goods were too big to fit this, still got paid but it kind of messed up the day 🙃
