Brilliant.

Fuel economy is good - my fully laden t/m, lwb high roof gives 24 mpg - all the time.

Turning circle is fantastic - better than a lot of cars.

They come with everything as standard - bulkhead, 270 degree wrap round rear doors.

Cabin layout is good.

The slightly older ones (including mine- 3 years old) is a bit agricultural.  It has a proper chassis, gear change is quite heavy, engine sounds like a commercial diesel engine.!!

The latest engines look very interesting - 166 BHP and they're very quiet- now you're starting to give mercedes a real run for the money.

From what I've seen on these boards - people who've got them love em - others sl*g them off - NEVER heard of any reliability problems (unlike most of the other vans including fords and mercs).

In summary - WELL WORTH A LOOK!!

Like the last post,
I have had one a (35S11) for over three yeards and its been "perfect" like said the turning circle is the best in any class for its size. The most part is galvanised and they are ecconomical and roomy .

A friend of mine has a transport business. Over the years he's had/got everything from 3.5 tonners up to tractor units. He swears by Iveco. In the very large van range he's tried them all and is now a dedicated Iveco fan.

Safe and happy driving :)
