Had a 1.8 D N/A was fine.

Kept up with traffic easily and I was actually supprised how nippy it was for a non turbo.

Fuel was also good, I dont ever remember thinking this thing is bloody thirsty.

Fully loaded the power was down and the front sterring was quite light, but other than that I couldnt fault it.

A good cheap van, and something of a classic i really feel now days, as I feel this was really the last car derived van made.

everything now is transit connect style.
