Peugeot Expert/citroen Dispatch

[stoford]

Hi, I'm looking to get myself a van and I like the look of the Peugeot Expert/Citroen Dispatch/Fiat Scudo models. Does anyone have any experience with these?

I have looked at these vans from the outside but the length looks a little marginal especially when I'm looking to transport two bikes.

Thanks, Stoford.

Got the Scudo model, we can get three bikes in no problem, two facing forward and and the middle bike in backwards.

Yes, one of the best vans for Trialling, i've had a couple and miss them. I've a VW T5 Transporter now which has been nothing but trouble. If you can afford,make sure you get an HDI version with 94 BHP (or , better still 109BHP from 02 reg on) With these you get better load capacity (900kg instead of 815) bigger brakes and tyres etc than the lower powered version. They are also more economical. The normally aspirated version is a bit slow loaded and the turbo diesel version of it prior to the HDI fine but a bit heavy on fuel. All 3 makes you mention come off the same production line so quality is the same.New Spares prices differ quite a lot though so its always worth trying each of the main dealers if you need a part.
