If you have to get a van this is by far the best

Dnt think i would of changed for a transit but i seriously considered changing my golf last month for a transporter kombi sportline last month as i was offered a good deal. But then i decided to keep the golf and get a roof rack.  :happy2:

He may have needed the space but if he didn't that is just plain stupid!  :confused:

Im assuming he needs the space, hence getting a transit...surely not got it to commute in.


Tranny looks bigger than the VW thats why he may have gone down that route and they seem pretty solid, see loads of old ones still knocking about.
