i too bought an ex british gas transit connect , fantastic. dead locks, excellent racking although as someone else said can be a pain when you need to put loads of rubbish in or whatever.

Hi, im looking for my first small van as im starting out! particularly like the vauxhall astra sportive CDTI as it looks smart and isnt a slug. bit worried about the practibility of them with no side door etc and how easy too rack out?.. has anybody had one? used one?
advice needed
cheers
The Astravans are good vans, however I prefer the Combo as they have side doors, they do an SE version of the combos are nice. We have both and they are both good vans but I recommend going to the 1.7 engines rather as the 1.3 engines as when they are loaded up they aren't very quick.
Vw caddy 1.9tdi great vans with loads of space
Opinions, opinions... I recently spent ages looking for a second hand van, too many clocked, accident damaged turds out there. Everyone will tell you to buy German because they're well built, solid, blah blah blah, the best piece of propergander since the war. Why oh why would anyone pay through the nose for a second hand van just because its German??? They're ridiculously overpriced! The people starting the myth are the German manufacturers and everyone trying to keep up with the Jones wanting something German on the drive.
I would rather suck on an exhaust pipe until I choke on my own vomit that own any German vehicle of any sorts!!! And as for Ewan McGreggor and that bloody long winded way round, now we have loads of fat old men riding BMW bikes "because they're well built, solid, blah blah blah...
Think for yourself, and buy Japanese. The Germans will take over the world one day you know, one vehicle at a time, and you're all helping them...
Rant over.
P.S. I don't like German vehicles...
P.P.S Seriously I don't, you should see what happens when I meet one on the road.
If Skoda made vans I would be one of the first in the queue.
Would never have thought I'd be saying that 20 years ago...
Do you not like 'zee germans' then Drew? Or should that be 'Ze germans'??? :lol:
Who put Rover under ....................?
