I run a few vans for my business anywhere between 6 and 13 over the last 28 years and I have had practically all makes always bought and exchanged every three years (sometimes less) and I can honestly hand on heart say the least problematic for me have been VW's yes they have faults and go wrong what vehicle doesn't but nothing like all the others I have had on fleets, having said that probably about 8 to 10 years ago one mate had a Berlingo on over 300'000 miles with very little issue, lets be honest if you get a Friday afternoon van your going to slate it.

Thanks all. He has looked at a good few now but loads of miles done on all. He is now looking at going down the lease route.......
