Hey Peeps, Has anyone got one of these? looking at one its done about 96k 09 plate £7'995 + vat just wanted to know what its like with weight in it do they still pul ok i just work locally, or may look at transit jumbo with 125ps but thats done 115k for £8'995 + vat is this alot miles for a transit? i have done about 26k in 3 and half years all comments would be a great help thanks sam
I've got a transit jumbo 135 on a 05 plate & mines only just done 100k mikes when its working its very powerfull but had nothing but problems with it. Its also far to big for what I'm doing just keep buying tools to fill it up Lol I'll be getting a much smaller van next time & hopefully soon
Hi mate, you ok? Thanks for your input been told to avoid 135 old reg as alot problems with engine on them, i do alot carpets and just got lwb with seats out but want to get something bigger, but not shore what to go for, as i dont want to spend alot as i have paid out a fair bit on doing training the last few years and would like to do some more, whats wrong with your van mate? sam
I had a lwb transit a few years back and always planned on upgrading to the jumbo. From what I've seen they are good, 4mtr just fits so the 5mtr and 15' stuff will still be doors open time! Mine did 165k before I sold it and it's still going strong. You could always go for the lower miles one and get it it remapped by van tuner, from what I heard his maps give more power and better mpg if you can keep your foot from the boards ;-)
thanks for reply dunc, Matt did you say you re-map your sprinter how much extra power do you get? and whats rough cost?
