Il have a go in the next few days and see how many to the gallon exactly

Also depends on how much weight were  carrying..

I have a new 09 plate dispatch van and am pleased with the all round quality and space that i need..

Will have to check for you tmor how many litres it holds bit gues it took me 90 pounds to fill up there abouts..

mpg about 20 to 25 per gallon..

Is that all...My mitsubishi L200 does that, and i thought that was juicy.

I have an L200 I know its jucy.

I have read reports on the Vivaro and gearboxes, clutches are crap But so is the reviews on the Pug boxer. So I dont know what to believe I think it will be pot luck.

Dave,

we run a vauxhall vivaro sportive and have had it 4 years no probs, its the lwb version and that extra space makes all the difference,  room for extra porty and rotary etc.

Ours is the 6 speed gear box and i think they have a lot less trouble than the earleir 5 speed box.

The only thing i wish is that is was the semi high top, as it makes servicing the tm a bit of a nigtmare trying to stick your head above the waste tank to clean filters etc.

One thing i liked about the vivaro is that the driving experience is more akin to a car than most vans which gives lot more comfort on long journeys or long days working.

Regards
Steve

To me the best looking vans on the road are the traffic,vivaro,primaster by far they are geat to drive its like night and day driving a primaster and then driving a transit ive also got the 6 speed gearbox so far no problems with that its the clutch going at 26,000 miles that pi$$ed me of and some idiot in a garage telling me he thinks my vans over weight and before anybody asked i no how to use a clutch first time in 15 years ive had to replace one.

Thanks Steve.

Thats helpful. I have just been speaking with a few other peeps that have a Vivaro and say been ok, Just the brakes need replacing a bit more than normal. But thats fine.

Oh well just wait and see I guess.

Cheers
