    No, all mine have bulkheads. I run a Crafter for carpets, although its mostly a shed on the drive.
    You can get a 3m cut or a thermofomer through the hatch under the seat though. Can`t do that in the Transporter.

    The old shape, Do like the new shape but prefer older if I had to pick.
    Ha my lad is 6ft 2 and he said its not great in the passenger seat either.

    I love the look of the transporter but I find them one of the most uncomfortable van I've drove, it's the seat position and steering wheel position that just isn't right for me. I had a courtesy volky for nearly 3 weeks and it didn't do my back any good and found it noisy in the cab.
    My chippy mate has the crew cab and its alot better seating position for me because of the better recline.
    It's a shame though because I would have one if it wasn't for that.

    I hang them out the back or put a crease in the softer carpets

    So, I test drove the Vito today, a 116.
    Hated it. Terrible gearbox, sloppy as, and awful brakes even with no load.
    The driving position was good, and it did feel comfortable, but other than that it was a no.
    Looks like another Vivaro then. They make a 3100 with a 1400kg payload so will look for one of those.
