For tools only and occasional timber on roofbars I would say Citroen Berlingo for that money. Very good van in 2L HDI.
If you want to regularly transport timber then you'll want something Transit sized with a proper rack, but for that money I'd expect a right bag of ****e.

Had had an astra van a few years ago, really liked it. Ran various vans at work including kangoos, Berlingos, caddys. New fiesta van is brilliant. Depending on how much load space you need, I'd go with an astra if it's big enough.

My 2003 connect has 100k on the clock with full history and has been spot on, but my mate bought one with patchy history and 180k on the clock and all its ever wanted was a clutch, it's his daily driver too. As mentioned they are simple enough to maintain and service parts are very cheap
