we lease our vans & include maintenance cover.

not had any problems plus its better for my accounts, we save a fortune having brand new vans all the time in comparison to owning which comes with its own drawbacks - you pay your own road tax, road side cover, tyres, servicing, if anything goes wrong after 3 years, less less relief

Don't hink personally it is better to lease that to own !   Surely it will cost lots more ?    I understand the need for reliability, but if you get the van regularly serviced houldn't ne a problem

I have a 57 vivaro and it has cost me a few quid! gear selector joint, clutch, gearbox and the immoboliser kicked in at a hospital car park so had to be re done at the vauxhall garage. They reckon the infa red cameras immobolised  it ?
mine is a swb and it is low at the back with a 650 tank and two men and kit on board.(payload 1150 kg i think)
Think i will try for a ford next and give vauxhall vivaro a miss.

I've got an 06 Toyota Hiace - utter rubbish, it's blown TWO brake bulbs now. I'll never buy another.

hadn't thought of old shape hiace ...... don't like the new shape (Peugeot) and how it drives.

Missus still works in a the Toyota garage I used to sales manage ... allowed to buy vehicles at cost  :)
