Look great Paul!

Really like these vans full stop my friend. Looking to upgrade all our berlingo vans to them.

Going to keep the berlingos as spares :grinning:

Maybe a dog van on the cards if I can sneak one out

Looks great Paul!

Our fellas still say they loved the Experts over anything else! Hated the Merc Vitos. Just got new kangoos there. Getting all sorts of mpgs and cost savings!!

Get yourself the new Mini Clubvan!! :p

3 seaters Jason.

What's the 1.6 like in these ? These are both the bigger engined version with 6 speed boxes
1.6 engine is a parcel, avoid. 2lt is the way forward, great mpg out of them too

Tempted to buy a few more, just waiting to see if the popularity of them picks up. Not many on the road.

Thanks for that I was choosing between the two at the same time and went for the bigger donkey. Didn't see 90bhp being enough once there was a load on board

Theres plenty of power in the 1.6 but the design of the engine is **** lol for ever skipping timing, eating turbos or wrecking there cams, not saying the 2lt is without its issues but its a safer bet.

One of these is an ex Peugeot lease and the other was Citroens demo lump. As you say not many around but a good few coming of 3 year leases soon I think. They are both 3 seaters by the way J

Yeah they're good vans, we got a new one earlier this year but it's only the 1.6HDI 5sp and it's pretty underpowered IMO, so you were right to go for the bigger engine.

MPG didn't look that different and I think road tax was the same too woodchop so decided on the bigger lump. Pretty decent driving position. I really like the sliding doors on both sides too.

Both great looking vans, we got the new hyundai iload and having sliding doors on both sides is very handy. It's a great van aswell IMO.

Graphics look decent.
