Yes, they are, shall we say have an "interesting" look, which I do quite like, unlike the new ford transit which I detest !!  However I don't buy on looks alone and this 2013 model with one owner cost a shade over £7k
Which I thought was a pretty good price.

I have to say the cab has bags of room in it but the seating and pedal arrangement takes a little getting used too.

63k

The boxer/relay/Ducato seem to be around 1,500 to 2k cheaper than the equivalent transit, certainly if your comparing lower mileage examples.

Nice custom btw!

I like my jumbo transit as well

plus VAT? Still a good price. Depreciation on that must have been hard to swallow.

I've just been today and checked 2 vans with my tape measure.
vw caddy ans peugeot expert. the load length is bigger in the vw 2.25 meters vs 2m in the expert.the expert is  a bit wider between the wheel arches but only by 5cm. you wouldn't think by looking at them .Anyway i'm also going to check a vauxhall combo lwb wich should be wider by the look of it and I'll make my decision

I have the vauxhall combo lwb its a rebadged fiat doblo .
it's a nice van and I can get the poles in with out going through the bulk head the only thing I do't like is the gear box no problems with it I just don't like the way it feels
