I had a Vivaro from new, I had loads of problems ranging from steering column, engine management system through to a new gearbox, all of these problems happened AFTER the warranty had expired
As soon as I had the gear box fixed, I got rid quick sharp.
I must admit I liked the look of it and the way it drove, but it cost me a lot of money, I have several friends that had similar problems with Traffics and Primastars, I have gone back to Volkswagen again...phew.
Interestingly, on Friday we had the RAC here to deal with some keys locked in a vehicle, he turned up in a Transporter, we spoke about Vivaro's he told me about a host of other problems he has seen with them, his description was 'Vivaro? you mean Lada Van' :
