Vehicles servicing?

I thought of getting one mostly as a transport for work.

I'm doing my own business so-called so need to travel around everyday.

Has been using Bike but everyday has to suffered because of the weather.

Sometime have to arrived at appointment with sweaty body or drenched clothes.

So thought of getting a Van for work.

 

Anyone can give some feedback for Fiat and Combo? Coz their price is about the same now.

VW...being VW....is a very well made van...no doubts about that....engine is good...body is sturdy...

 

as for peugeot...its lacking in the power dept..but i must say when i drove it for 1 month..it was a great ride...comfortable...and enough nooks & crannies to put your barang barang...

 

consumption is not really fantastic though....45 litres of diesel gets you ard 700km...depending on your driving style..

 

i went for the combo because of the reviews that it got...and its the least problematic van...according to a lot of eurovan drivers...

 

and it has turbo....not that im going to whack it..but its always good to have some power at times...
