No problem you would get a cheap van as they have good deals at moment and you get pattern parts anyway

You want a good deal you`ve gotta pay cash.

When the adminastrators go in, they want to save the company and get some money back in to bring debts down.
I don't see problem i would buy one, i believe the problem with GM is the van side, so to me that means good deals on vans.
As for loading the ballon payment  (if you buy that way)  isn't that the idea of ballon payments anyway

You need to think long term.

Which vans will last.....Vivaro/traffic/primstar/transit ::) All rubbish in the long term.

Go for a VW/Toyota or a Merc ;)  They all go on forever.

I have had a newer shape vito for 18 months and have not had a thing go wtrong with it although sadly there are a few little bits of rust begining to show on the bodywork a common problem with the older ones that I hoped would have been sorted by now! As for vivaros etc the gearbox problems were supposed to have been fixed by time the 56 plated vans were for sale so anything after that should be ok, unless you know different.......

After 55-plate wasn't it?

Mine is an 07, and never had any problem with it.
Just been in for service and they said it was A1.
