New shape volkswagen caddy van

[BREAKALEG]

No i avoid the blue bg vans at auction almost as much as the red ones for the same reason!
How royal mail manage to trash there vans in such a short space of time amazes me.
Think mine was a repo from up t'north.

 

[SuperMario80]

ah thats worth knowing that the bg and po ones should be avoided.

you are far more likely to get a good BG van than a PO one, unless you get one of my ex vans

thought the vivaro was supposed to be s***te on fuel?

I am getting about 38-40mpg out of it which is good considering I have been blessed/cursed with a lead boot!!

is that empty or full in the back? some of our guys reckon theirs are terrible for fuel when laden.

Ive got the renault traffic and get about 500/600 miles probably 75% laden, and its still fairly rapid! The 6th gear is good

 

[nickso]

i assume the vivaro and the tragic are the same van?

 

[londonboy]

oh yess

 

[heatingman]

only getting 18-20 mpg from the vito, but its superb to drive.

18-20? its not a diseasal is it? how bad is the rust?

 

[heatingman]

yup its a diesel, funny thing the front wings are plastic

 

[nickso]

they probably decided that was best given their awful rustproofing of the last 10 years.
