There a good van matey. Not much really goes wrong with them tbh.The only common things that go wrong on the connects in our fleet is the roll pin in the gear selector in the gearbox snaps leaving the van with no gears.

Check the brake pipes near the fuel tank cause these can rot.

Dont you hate ebay when you ask the seller a question, they dont answer then all of a sudden theres 5 bids £350 to £550 in 2 mins

if its a tdci look out for flashing glow plug light, can indicate fucked fuel pump.
it cost me £1500+ to put right.
if its a tddi, it will be fine. them engines seem to last forever. just check general stuff

We had a connect come into work and the postman said it had a oil leak.When it got to us it was misfiring. When we got it on the ramp there was 2 holes in the block lol and threw a con rod threw the block.I was laughing cause the engine was still running.

i have a brand new one for work and compared to my Corsa sportife its slow.

only a 75bhp model but i'm sure you must be able to get a better bhp model.

i have just bought a sport connect based on the good reviews i got from other workmates and mine is only £530 to insure fc

Im not to worried about speed mate as iit will do about 20 miles a day, im only doing it as i have a transit parked outside ............and a few moaning neighbours who think there clever smashing the windscreen and today ive gone out there to a flat front tyre . all because they are saying its to big. With a connect it would go on my front drive .

what tossers hate assholes like that setup a camera and catch them at it

Harris.

Its been going on for months, the guy over the road decides to move his 4 cars off his drive over the weekend so nobody else can park which means i have to park further up the road and by doing so ive pissed them off too ie the flat tyre!!! , there is parking zones down my road as im near a train station .

got a neighbour just like that he never uses his drive and takes up room for 3 cars withis one if you park outside his whilst he is out his wife comes out and guides him up as close to your car as possible, leave notes on the windscreen and even a bannana skin on the roof off the girls car next door lol

then the otherside the old boy has had a disabled bay put outside his house he hasnt driven for over 2 years and wont ever again as he struggles walking let alone driving really boils my piss sometimes lol some people obviously dont have anything better to do
