I need to buy a van and was wondering if there are any with PD engines? 130 or 150?

Any really.
I need a small van, but wouldn’t mind a large van to convert too.

just did a quick search seat = inca
Don't think that shape got the pd130 or 150 engine. This can dates back from the MK3 golf era . A lot of the switch gear in these are MK3 golf /polo era
It's the shape after this model that got the pd engines

My mate had one with a pd130... bought it like that so not sure if it was an engine swap but it was very nippy.

I’ve been looking now and seems any of them with 130 or 150 are conversions.
Most of them are 104 or 69.

Sounds about right.
Cause my mate had the last of that shape caddy and it was like 100bhp diesel or so.

Only VW Sharan/Seat Alhambra/Ford Galaxy used same engines as Golf Mk4.
115 AUY
130 ASZ
140 BRT, 2.0 TDI 8V
150 BTB which is same as ARL but Euro 4.
