worst 04 vivaro
best 63 vw transporter
until the gritter ripped the front nearside off this weekend, been sat in on hold to insurance company all day fighting for a courtesy van with a roofrack

Only had two vans - Doblo 1.3 '56 new - Dan the Man bought it from me in October and still uses it. On about 41k in 8 years. Starter motor went in warranty, a side door jammed shut just after and the electric window mechanism failed on the drivers side and was replaced for £90.

Hyundai iload 2.5 Comfort - just coming to three years old nothing has ever gone wrong but as it is still in its 5 year warranty and just on 16,000 from new I don't expect it to. 1st MOT due on Friday.

So both vans fine.

omg, thank you so much OP. this is exactly what I need in order to know what to buy.

quick question: are 10 year old vans with over 150k milage bad?

[paulben]

I wouldn't worry about the mileage on a diesel all depends on how its been driven and looked after .I sold a petrol car a few years ago with 220 k on clock still went like s**t off a shovel

04 Connect for 8 years never let me down though only fitted alternator, throttle pedal, wiper blades and a few tyres here and there. Only had my dispatch a few weeks but no problems so far. Though driving is like driving  car!

[Mist A Bit]

I had an old van with 324,000 on the clock. Rotted away being a ford but that engine would of carried on, my latest van has the lowest milage I've ever had.  high milage on a desiel especially old diesel engines isn't a problem

[eric star]

Never had a van best car was a Nissan bluebird and my worse was Austin montego

[Mist A Bit]

Best: ford escort, fiat scudo and vw transporter

worst: Iveco daily, Vauxhall astra & citroen

just shows the differece in experiences , my iveco has been faultless , my vauxhall was good and citroen soso
your best was my worse. escort van x 2 rusted beyond repair and first one snapped alternator belt and wrapped itself around the timing belt and ripped it off the sprockets, fiat gearbox went bang and the vw was a mass of engine managment problems and failing suspension, these not all vans but an experience with these particular brands
