Looks like the way forward.

110bhp or 89bhp. Is it really that slow? I mainly do town work and not a speed demon.

Sorry paul we went off on a tangent talking about the old Nissan vanettes, the 89/110 sound pretty reasonable

Anybody else have a suggestion for a van around the 8k inc VAT mark?

Got a 61 plate had it from brand new can't wait to get rid hate the thing it is the worst van I have had, I've driven transits traffics connects and astras and I can say That if ur around my height of 6ft 2 the ache in your knees wil get unbearable after A while! Just my opinion tho

I got a new shape 58 plate Peugeot expert "professional" (just like me, hahaha), best van I've had so far (touch wood) goes like stink gets loads in, only prob I've had is the EGR valve keeps playing up but I've had it replaced now

I have an NV200, and I wouldn't swap it for anything, especially something made by Ford. Not to mention the payload is bigger than the LWB high top Connect. And it was a pre-reg so it was an absolute bargain! Bluetooth, parking sensor, steel bulkhead all standard equipment.

And if the wife's not in it I can get it to 60mpg.

 

[telectrix]

but not 60mph! my old smoke box has the best engine management system in the world - my right foot. none of these chinese electronics to go wong. parts are dirt cheap from scrappy. bloody noisy beast though with that 2.3d between the seats.

I have an NV200 from new, and ocassionally (once every 2 months, maybe) it would refuse to start (starter cranked forever but engine wouldn't fire). After a couple of trips to the garage and replacing fuel parts and other stuff they decided it was an engine management computer issue so needed a software upgrade. After doing that (another day in the garage) it seems to be fixed.

The carpet seems to wear very quickly, with a hole appearing within a thousand miles or so, this picture being at 3500 miles. Also there is a silly hollow in the door sill where all the gravel and dust collects with no natural way out, which is a bit of a design flaw for a commercial vehicle. Oh, and there's a bit of plastic by the seat which the seatbelt catches on which is annoying!

that's the problem with all modern vehicles. engine management systems that shut down if you fart. just an excuse for the main dealers to rake in oodles of cash.

Yeah just like that stupid problem i had with mine recently after i left the battery disconnected overnight, that must have been ecu related because it fixed itself and has been fine since!
