In my old business for 23 years I ran small Diesel vans ( fleet of 8 or 9 usually) for around 300,000 miles in about 5 years usually

 

Ford Connects were our favourites followed by Vauxhall Combos. Only ever had 1 VW Caddy thank god, that spent most of its life broken down. I was pleased when the insurers scrapped it after a prang and only 180,000. Fuel wise there was not a lot to choose between the Ford and the Vauxhall, both were returning about 50-52 mpg even at 300,000. The VW never came close, best it ever did was 46mpg, average was nearer 43. VW promised me 60mpg then blamed my drivers when they consumption was so bad.
