they are ok vans good on ecnomics if you watch what you are doing

i would reverse the question and ask what you need / want to carry as this would establish what size of van you require ?

and also if you want a turbo or not ?

The 2.0 fwd's are good engines and are available in 75, 100 and 125ps. The 75 and 100ps are tddi, where as the 125ps is tdci. All are turbocharged. My 2002 75ps returned 35mpg on adverage and increased to 42mpg after a remap.
