Which Connect

[xillent]

Again I'm "considering" a new van (well maybe not brand new but new to me). Looking for a low mileage job if used. I plan to keep her until she dies. Which variant should I
go for. The new facelift model or the previous one? (is the new facelift model worth it).
What about power?
I'd like as many goodies as is worthwhile. Particularly want Cruise control, Air Con and DAB radio.


Any help appreciated.

Facelift model with the new auto box and original nose would be a killer.

I'd recommend the T230 110ps high roof. You can get a 2011/2012 with low miles (40-50K) for around £6K.

Excellent load capacity and strong enough for long distance driving and carrying. The injectors seem to be a weak spot so check for leaks and rough idling.

I wouldn't get less than a trend trim level if you want to keep it for a while as the basic is really basic.

2006-2016 I believe is the Siemens Tdci set up which most rate over the earlier Delphi Tdci for reliability.

Thanks. I've been looking at 120 ps Limited models.

Without a budget you’re not going to get much help tbh. But as you’ve mentioned the 120ps Limited you’re looking at a late 2016 onward van?

Yes, I've done a bit more digging. Would prefer a van with some warranty left. Preferably a year
