This might be useful for anyone planning a trip away- the prices seem pretty good and the guys who hire them out have used them for cycling trips themselves, so they know they work.
Its Autotec Hire, and the options are below
VW Shuttle, 9 seat, Long Wheel Base, air con, congestion charge paid. Daily- £75, Weekly- £380, Weekend- £220
Caravelle, 8 seats, SWB, automatic, climate control, flexible seating.
Daily- £50, Weekly- £240, Weekend- £140
Kombi, 6 seats, SWB, tow bar, sat nav, large load room.
Daily- £45, Weekly- £230, Weekend- £125
I believe 'weekend' means halfway through friday to monday, so its a 'proper' weekend.
As an example, the guys who hire it used it to go up to Newcastle. They had five of them, bikes and kit in the caravelle comfortably.
