Best get a few miles on your new van then when we come up we can see what the difference is between a 130 5sp and a 140 6sp :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hi mate not Taking the piss or anything, have you actually got the van???? You do know that when you order a van it takes a very long time for it to come through???

Also in 1 post you say you have ordered it yesterday and in another you say you received it yesterday???

yes mate i do have van.spotted one in my local dealers about a fortnight ago.i went back about aweek later and decided i wanted one then to be told they couldnt get one until one was released from factory.obviously i didnt want to wait and asked if they could find me one at another dealer then to be told them who have them will not release them.went in next day to tell salesman i was going to go to next dealership who had one possibly having to travel some distance.within 2 hours salesman rang me to say he had found one in st albans which would get picked up following day if i sorted money out.having sorted finances the van got delivered to local dealer on thursday evening so ihad to wait till yesterday because of bank holiday weekend.hope this has cleared that up for you mate cheers

Something sounds odd there, how many gears has it got? What colour did you go for?

Pictures are very easy see the link below for instructions. It's not envy at all it's just something dosen't sound right.
