Hi Dave. I've been driving Vivaro and Movano - both had the steering wheels not in great position - a bit moved towards middle of the van. I had experience in quite few medium size vans - one I'd recommend mostly would be transit custom. As long as you'll maintain it well and change the wet belt once every 60-70k miles they'll do great job. In comparison to all the vivaro group (peugeots, toyota, citroen etc are in it) they have better driving position, way better turning circle, better cabins, loading space I'd argue is better itself aswell. Transporters are not too bad aswell, but I'd still go for custom. No clue with the mercedes benz vito though as didn't had pleasure driving these. I currently own custom at 180k miles and drives mint, only big repair was clutch - which kind of got to expect at this mileage.

@gregoriovicarian5961 I do like the custom but the mpg is quite low and the 2nd hand prices high compared to other models

I’ve had three doblos, but the 1.3. No real problems, you can listen to radio through Bluetooth on your phone.

Another great video Dave. I bought my Dablo around the same time as you and it’s now near 175,000 miles on the clock. Touch wood nothing has gone wrong with it yet. As you said just consumables. Brakes, discs, clutch etc still all the originals. More important than no adblue is that it gives me 58-62 MPG which is brilliant for this size van. Just one thing. Why are you going bigger? In my opinion a SWB or MWB van will not give you much more advantage on the CX. The pence per mile prices are only marginally higher than a small van but the running costs are are quite a lot more. Dry hard to get 58 MPG out of a SWB

How many miles do you make with a full tank,and what is the size of the tank? Thank you!

@ionsirbu1977 630 miles per tank which I think holds 60 litres
Chugga-boom! 😂 Buying any vehicle with Ad-Blue is a nightmare, if you think the Euro 6 vehicles are fragile and unreliable, you haven’t seen anything until you drive a Euro 7 engined van. Euro 7 is an unmitigated disaster. Take care and take money Saints man!
