Fish-Finger-er Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 sorry, but hendrixmaster, from your last few car posts, starting to think your automotie knowledge is limited. ive never seen a 1.9 transit....ever.because they probably dont exist. also, if your going to go down the Van route, Vito's are the future.

sfboy Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Aren't vans expensive to insure, I reckon you can't go far wrong with the 306, plus they are multifunction (a van will just be for carrying stuff) I hear the turbo is decent, if you can stretch to the HDI it will be cheap to run too and, while it isn't no speed demon, should still leave the nova boys behind.

Gavyn. Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 (edited) vans are generally more expensive cause they usually carry expensive tools which people like to nick.VW Golf? Edited February 1, 2007 by Gavyn L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendrix Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 sorry, but hendrixmaster, from your last few car posts, starting to think your automotie knowledge is limited. ive never seen a 1.9 transit....ever.because they probably dont exist. also, if your going to go down the Van route, Vito's are the future.Bear in mind the earlier transits were 1.9, 2.0 and 2.3 - I remember because my dad had the 1.9ALSO, Vito are no good to go for, especially not the new ones. They're extremely slow. Even the 110bhp is nothing. My neighbour has bought one, and I was very disspointed when a Volvo overtook us!Again - VW Campervans with Impreza Engines are the way to go. Lots of guys down my ay are doing that sort of thing. You just need £6k spare.Splitscreen for £13k + Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
