Bobthebeard Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 It's been great TBH. Round the doors local work it does around 50 MPG with the above on longer stuff. The adblue consumption seems very low also. A few niggles, trim isn't very robust ( door seals becoming detached with passengers scuffing them with their feet ) and floor covering being thin and fragile, odd position of some switches etc. Am becoming very attached to it though. It does the job and being 'my office' on a daily basis am happy to go to work. paulplom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerzy Woking Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 My mate wanted a van to move a few things to storage, so I lent him my Vivaro. He left me his Peugeot 507 coupe to use. Must say it is comfy, quiet, a real waft barge, but bloody hell it is huge. 2.0 diesel although can hardly hear it running from the inside. He can keep the van for as long as he wants. EDIT: Silly boy, it's a 407, as indicated by the exterior badges and the embroided floormats. Springer, myglaren and paulplom 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainly motorways and at night, but even so. It's a P/H (taxi) so these things matter. I managed Uttoxeter to Aintree this afternoon, and got 34.8 mpg according to the trip computer. It's never been that high ever. The traffic was light, and I toottled along with cruise set at the speed limit or lower. paulplom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
