Depend which model you have. The T200 is 625kg and the T220 is 825kg.

Yep, but I've got the Lwb T230 which has a 900kg payload and tank fits nicely (500ltr). You might be pushing the payload limit for the swb van  :o unless you pop for a 400Ltr tank instead, especially as the Rozzers are getting quite hot on pulling and checking vans weights etc. Hope this helps   ;D

Apparntly connect mpg is terrible, i know a window cleaner whos got one, says it does 20 - 30mpg...in this job that is no good, i should know, my last vehicle was doing around the 20's, 30-40 miles out of a tenner is no laffing matter.

The front tyres get shredded on the inside even from new. Had a 59 plate, needed 2 front tyres before it hit 20k. But they all do it, I run 7 now, very nice to drive and for a van they can be very quick, but mpg is poor.
Mind you the company I work for insist on putting roof racks on even for my teams which I wont give ladders to so just carrying it round all day for nothing so I suppose that skews my opinion on mpg.
Central locking has issues too, pre 57 plate the locks do pretty much what they want.

Oh and the gearstick gaiter crumbles to bits after a few years!!

Spkiey is yours. 200 or 220? If it's the 220 it should have the payload for a 500l tank, if it's a 200 then it wouldn't.

I don't know why they are getting slated either, mine does 34 mpg and that is around town, never had a problem with tyres wearing, it's never broken down.

I think the tddi engine is worse on fuel than the tdci, that probably why some only get high 20's from theirs
