The Vito's are terrible for rust I agree, I wonder why though as the car side of the business seem to last for ever.

the other issue with the discoveries is the change of law meaning you cant transport kids in the side facing rear seats anymore. the later models have front facing ones, but only TD5 onwards i think.

vitos do get a bad name, stay clear mate.

If you buy a vito around 06 in metallic they seem to fair better. It could be the white ones are made in spain the posh ones Germany. The cars were rot boxes around 98- 2000 seem much better before and after

If two of the six a mid sized/juniors, then a 2nd hand Merc E class estate is a nice possibility, diesel. But no room for luggage when the rear seats are in use. Watch out for rusty ones though.

I've recently bought a LWB vauxhall vivaro and I absolutley love it.

6 seats in 2 rows, bulkhead, then a large loadspace in the back. 140hp, 6 speed, it returns around 30 - 35mpg.

Sounds like just what I need mate,

 

 

But, are these not known for dodgy gearboxes ?

Mines got the 2.5 engine, no problems with gearbox so far '145k' althoug I did need to sort the engine out shortly after buying it (cracked head bodged up by previous owner).
