New jumbo

Evening all, returning to the transit after 4 years with a sprinter
Just ordered a magnetic grey L4 H3 trend 125 but was gobsmacked to get a 22 week delivery time quoted
I told the dealer I'm waiting until march if its not here by Xmas
Also just waiting on confirmation that my van qualifies for the 5year warranty and 4 years servicing and roadside assistance.
It needs to be ordered by 30th September and registered by 31st December
But with 22 weeks to build it that's impossible, FMC need to confirm it.

I'd get the 155PS engine with a van that size mate, I have the 155PS L3 H2 MK 8 and to be honest it no quicker than my old 130PS MK 7 but I put that down to the ratio on the gearing. I had the L2 H2 Demo van with the 125 engine and it was as flat as a witches tit !

I was in 2 minds with doing that but to be honest I test drove both and wasn't impressed with either but like the whole package so went with 125 cos I couldn't justify the extra cost
155 had nice low down torque but not as good as the sprinters

[joiner12007]

The 155 was actually cheaper than the 125 when they priced my van as did get a price for both even though I knew I was going to go for the 155

think with the sprinters its the gearing thats why theyre so jerky to drive!

Yeh deffo agree with that. I was going for another sprinter there just way too dear brand new and a bit dated so went for the not quite a looker transit. I'm happy with my choice
