No i havn`t but do you like them vans,there good from the front but they look like they missed the back when they re designed them.The back looks exactly the same as it did before lol,ugly.

i asked my mate that question the other day as he is a manager at  logistics depot , he said they were pretty reliable after 2002 once they sorted out the electrics,they then changed to the new ldv and they are always breaking down

I have one m8 - 2001 Y reg newer shape had it about a 15 months now and no problems at all seems to be reasonable on fuel but mines only 75bhp and can be sluggish when fully loaded so I would recommend going for a faster one.

I have one the 100 model only had it a month or so so no problems with it
It drives well and you hardly notice the weight in the back i have a 650 ltr tank in the back and it pulls well as for looks i dont think they look ugly and to be honest it really doesnt matter as long as the vehicle does the job and the Transit does
