Drives very well , you only notice that its a little harsh , but then again it is brand new so when its worn a little i dont think you would notice between this and a std van

Ive driven a couple in at work, they are awesome!

Fast as hell for a van and they look the tits, great spec, pricey, but a great tool, people notice you, and if you get it livered up with your company details it'll do a top advertising job

Enjoy it

Gutted, should have called me back mate, I had the money sat here and like I said if the car was as described- which I have no doubt it was, I'd have had it- you dont drive from Birmingham to North Yorkshire on New Years eve unless you're gonna buy.

Families eh- who'd have em.

I hope when you do sell it - if you do - you dont get some time wasting tosser kicking the tyres for hours on end and picking every little fault they can with it.


Cheers

Jake

PS- Nice van
