I have a 55 plate transit, had it over a year now and love it, But knew i would. I used to travel the country to construction sites in my previous job in a few different vans. Transits were always my favourite and most of the other lads preferred them too, the company then moved over to vivaro's, and the only good thing i can say about them is the go like poop off a shovel, They are uncomfortable to drive, and have little space in the front IMO. They were forever having major trouble with them, with at least 2 needing new engines!! Bag of poope IMO. Movano's are even worse. We used 2 vw transporter 5 seaters for a couple of years and they were great, I think even better than transits, But i could not afford one when I was after a van and needed 3 seats in the front. Vito's I never really liked, very plasticy in the cab, went very fast though, But never really liked them. Sprinters were ok, Just not very comfy compared to tranny.
Lets be honest, Ford has lead the way in car and van making for years, They constantly win awards and get excellent reviews for comfort and ride etc, But they do need to address the rust issues as vivaro's never seem to rust.
