    General van chat which used van

    considering everything such as reliability, longevity, economy, comfort and space, which is the best van to buy used for under £2000, I do like the Ducato for its width and the old t1 shape merc's as they look great to me, but on a serious note (the wallet) which is the best to look at, thank you

    What is the ultimate drivers car?

    Of the many cars I've driven for me the mx5 as above and the 205 pug, fantastic, the extremely powerful cars I've owned only make me brake on bends wheras he Mazda and pug (also my current focus) ask for more, so in my case less power is more
