Glass’s has chosen the Vauxhall Vivaro as its Used Van Hero for June in recognition of its reliability and economy.
In particular, Andy Picton, chief commercial vehicle editor, praised the Vivaro for its solid feel and versatility of its range, as well as Vauxhall’s large dealer network.
He continued: “Strong economical engines fitted to the current range together with a good size payload area are attractive benefits.”
Picton added that: “Sportive models in colour and with plenty of extras are seen as good value for money compared to some of the more expensive competition.”
However, he noted there are some issues with the gearboxes on older generations and urged used buyers to check for a service history with high-mileage examples.
Glass’s also picked out the Vivaro 1.6 CDTI (120hp) Sportive 2700 L1 H1 on a 15/64 plate with 23k on the clock as its ideal buy.
