Just watched a 5th gear comparison of Transort v Vito. Vito had bigger engine and more power. VW kicked its butt. Problem with Transporter is i can only see 5 seats. Do you have the sport? Sound mean but what does it do to the MPG?
A tank cost £80 ish and I get around 550 miles from it. Not the sport, for me it's just a donkey that drags all my stuff from one place to the next, reliably and as cheaply as possible.

Only issue I foresee with the Korean brands would be the 'feel' of the cabin, not an issue if it's functional and reflected in the price though. (5 year warranty to boot, but often a pro rata warranty)

Rang our local sales room. Said they have never even seen one and it would be a special order. Price about £22K. So a bit of wasted effort me thinks.
or ring back and ask to speak to someone who knows their product!!
nah, ring Hyundai UK & ask for:-

I got a Trafic obviously used it when I run my own company, good workhorse. Engine was lively, had aircon, solid bulkhead, cheap to buy. Still got it but now it's a Disco van lol

Last week did Oxford, Worcestershire & Nottingham most of it was motorway with ladders and steps on the roof, loads of kit in the boot and the back seat. I got 565 miles for £56..00 worth of diesel.
