just wondered if any of you tradsesmen, especially plumbers, have any experience with these? are they reliable? well put together? i see they only come in 1.9/2.0 litre. what mpg are you getting?
its ok ...would have preferred a TDI rather than the penny pinching and very slow SDI.
as a van its ok, decent load space even with BG's **** racking system in the back and their crappy aftermarket lock system. its a nice van to drive if you ignore the ****e seats.
best BG van i had was a vauxhall combo....unbelievable i know but it was quicker, handled better and was better laid out......blew the gearbox on it though.
When looking around for a van earlier this year, I was looking at all the smaller vans combo,caddy,connect etc.
The smaller van that I nearly bought was the Fiat Doblo.Alright I know Fiats can sometimes be ,shall we say, irksome,but this little van really impressed me.
Great drive and handling and there was quite a bit of room in the back.
Father in law has got the 1.3 diesel and it is very nippy and economical.Think he gets about 40-45 mpg, which is reasonable,considering it is always loaded with gear.
Anyway, I bought a Vivaro LWB in the end as I got it at a snip.
4 Months old, 3500 miles all for 10 grand. Bargain
I bought a 2007 combo 1.3 tdi at the auctions, it was 20 months old in good nick, 25k, 1 owner for £2700+vat. Really pleased with its performance & drive.
Have 2 other vans (master & berlingo) and over the years have had everything from a rascal to a sprinter lol
