Well it was faster than the Ford ! I think a lot of that was lack of weight as it was a bit sketchy handling wise compared to the Ford...Better wipers...but what a shite gearbox/clutch !

Happy to have the Ford back TBH...

Mayby a newer less thrashed VW would be OK...

think yourself lucky you aint got a vivaro, maintained by the skilful BT motor fleet dept :thumbup:

im back to work on Tuesday and will be collecting it from the garage. its done 97,000 "careful" miles. over time its had to have the whole brake system renewed, its on its 3rd gearbox and I think its 2nd clutch . its also had about 3 front bumpers.

none of the trim is held on very well and everything that can fall off over time has .

the side door regularly jumps off its runners which you can get back on if you are the incredible hulks big brother.

when I first got it I did think it was nicer to drive than a transit, I,m lucky that im more of a middleweight than a heavy weight so my drivers seat has not collapsed yet !!.

overall I would think twice about getting one if it was my money :confused

oh yes , they never seem to be able to get the window washers to work for more than about a week
