New ford Transit vans
muddyjames:
It is pig ugly and what happened to thier big button easy to use and find channels whilst driving radio?
It even has trip meters which tell you mpg blah blah blah.
As long as it comes in red we dont mind. Our spec is a rear wheel drive long wheel base van. Our options are the Transit or the Merc which we can't afford and LDV have stopped doing rear wheel drive vans luckily as I hate them even more!!!

--- Quote from: "Jas278" ---From the Pikies I have spoke too,( transit specialists :lol: ) they much prefer the old Tranny (easier to nick I think ) than the new unreliable one.....

Ford could use this as a selling point!! :lol: :lol:

Muddyjames why is the iveco daily not on your list? Great van for the money. I used to use merc sprinters but changed to the iveco daily on grounds of cost but i actually prefer them now. :lol:
muddyjames:
I didnt know iveco did rear wheel drive vans. Are they roughly the same height and length as the Transit LWB'es as the vans will be mainly be driven by people who drive cars all day long and only drive our vans once or twice a year for a week. We need them to be roughly car size ish if you see what I mean?
Also whay are they like on price? More expensive or cheaper than a Transit?

Yep iveco vans are rwd. You can get them virtually any size you want, they come in three wheelbases and three roof heights as a panel van. As for price comparison i don't know how much transits are but i would be surprised if they were cheaper than the iveco. Have a look at www.vansdirect.co.uk , i bought two from them last year. You would need to ring them for a current price as the price fluctuates depending on what they have in stock. As a guide 12 months ago a medium wheel base, semi heigh roof cost £12500 + VAT, A long wheel base, semi heigh roof cost £13400 + VAT. If you are after a swb low roof it must be in the region of £11500 + VAT :D
