Payload 330kg v 550kg plus
Having a low payload is almost positive you will be overweight. Older vans "Pre July 2022" can have significant differences in TARE weight. A payload of 300-400kg will almost definitely be overweight without water. 400-450kg will have an extremely high chance of being overweight.
450-550kg is half reasonable for a basic set up with possibly 1/2 water capacity. 550kg plus will give you a good chance to be able to carry full water and personal belongings.
