New Jumbo Transit

[richgold]

I drove a 14 plate new shape Jumbo today, admittedly only moved it from one end of the yard to the other, but I wasn't impressed with it.
It felt like a cheap sprinter inside, high cab with a shelf, hard skinny seats, cheap-feeling hollow-sounding dashboard, odd-looking stereo, I honestly didn't find anything I liked.

And I had to put my foot on the clutch before it would start. Whats that all about?

The Mk8 is designed for America - to compete with the Sprinter over there.
that's why it looks gash and has stuff like clutch to start to stop them hurting themselves.

You have to push clutch down on the Sprinter, thats where the similarities end

Dont like them at all, taken transit unique image away.in my eyes transit have allways looked different from others?

I was only in the van for 2 or 3 minutes, but nothing in there felt "nice". It felt like a Tesco Value Sprinter.
