Anyone in the motor trade or personal experience with small vans

Unread post by Apprentice Chimp »

Looking to change my Vauxhall Vivaro to something smaller! Any opinions on what's best to look at? Thinking transit connect, caddy, fiat doblo, etc.

Looking for personal or trade experience, not just there's loads of them on the road get one of those lol

Cheers

Hi I I have been in the motor trade for forty years , I was Bill Curries mechanic for some 15 years, Les is his brother. I do work on vans for Les,
he also has a lot of vans that are not on his web site. He will always try and give you a good deal. Rob.

Caddy/transit/doblo is order of how I'd rate them with known problems/mot fails/electrical faults.

Royal Mail have switched to doblos and having lots of problems with them,new combos are the same,poor resale value.

The caddy will be least trouble and best resale value

I've got a customer doing 1500 miles a week in a 64 plate connect and apart from pads and tyres, no problems yet
