Page 1 of Guys, I need your opinions on these two vans please....

Hey all...

I`m looking for another van and seen these two....need you`re opinions on both please as i`m not sure which is better....

Mercedes Sprinter: http://pasimportexport.com/details.php?id=890

More expensive but low mileage at 60k

Citroen Relay: http://pasimportexport.com/details.php?id=1984

Cheaper but higher milage at 90k....

My budget is around £5k and hopefully going to view tomorrow....

Thanks in advance :)

non of the links work for me

I just copied them (incl the http bit) into google and they linked to (what I assume were) the right vehicles

Not being a big vehicle person not really much I can contribute

As the Van with less miles on is also about 4 years older I would assume that any future sell on price will not differ too much
What exactly are you looking to use it for?

can`t speak for the citroen (other than you should be able to get cheap parts) but at my previous firm we had a couple of sprinters (2 long carriage, & two of the smaller ones, i forget there name) & all the drivers preffered them over the other vans, which where all ford transits.

hope this helps.

A bit like the English dictionary that you appear to be using at present :-D

As far as I can tell it is a self proclaimed title
Not one as voted on by the reviewer clan on, say, an annual basis

I`d be going sprinter, Neiliboy.
Bit dearer, but it will hold its value far better.
So full-term cost will be less.
And they`re fast, for a van.

well we have Sprinters at work... as well as large transits, i have a small connect transit which if pretty good, and a few VW vans... Merc all the way with the large vans!
