Couldn't have carpet. I'm far to messy. I have a transit tray in the bottom. Wipe clean and I am not a painter so I will never carry gloss.

Looked at a trafic sport today

 

[ShaunCorbs]

What did you think

Vauxhall Renault and fiat all have the same design

 

[Scott_D]

I like them. Nissan also have the same van.

Just a bit concerned about the gearbox's
Had mine done twice and it was also repaired under warranty with the first owner
(mine is the old shape)

I've never thraped my vans to be honest. I would be gutted if it broke because of my driving. My car however is a different story

Has anyone had one of the new Renault Traffics. My transporter is 11 years old now and the time has come to change it. Cant face the bill for a new T6 and fancy something new with a warranty. The Renault 4 year warranty and 4 year roadside assistance appeals. Some good deals on pre-reg ones. Just wanted opinions of anyone whos owned one.

 

[Harvest Fields]

The only Renault I have ever had was when I was on the cards a Kangoo and it was always in the shop with electrical issues. I have a transit custom now. Awesome piece of machinery.

Really! Have I been away that long. French vans are a no no. Just no.

Just behave Shaun. You know better.

Wouldn't trade my transit for anything now mate

 

[Leo21]

I've got a ten year old hiace, I wouldn't swallow it for anything either. Never let me down once.
I'm actually worried about buying something newer and less reliable.

I'm too tight to change my van, 10 years i've had it and I bought it for £3600 inc VAT in Jan 07

I figure a new van isn't going to make me a better plumber is it? Theres no rust on it.

I want 5 more years out of it.

There speaks a fellow Yorkshire man . I take a different view though in that I spend 8 / 9 hrs a day in and out of mine and it's my office, canteen and why give it to the taxman. I drive the van now all the time and never drive the car.
