Default vans

i currently have a 51plate transit but have been promised an update soon (which apparently i can choose!) and so i want to get opinions from other van drivers. i want get a transit thats practical for a builder, but i want to get a van that has moveable seats and steering wheels (see other posts) - big problem i guess is that my 60" gut (no exagerations) makes me feel quite clostraphobic and so if there are any other larger van drivers who could recommend a van to suit a fat lad then i would be chuffed ! really !!!

The new Transit is out soon which has a lot more toys and driver comforts in it. Not sure when it's out though.....

cheers RobS will try the vivaro out as long as it has adjustable steering wheel and seats it should be great. i'm sure it would be a big improvement on my current banger..hope i can persuade the boss !
