Always ran VW for my business and I’ll run my 6.1 for another 12 months then probably get one of the pug/renault variants. If I’m going to buy vans with shit engines I might as well spend half the money.

Is this not another example of thinking we have a "choice" but we don't really have one? It's called a VW however it's really a Ford. It's like walking into a sweet shop and think, wow there are so many different sweets. Yet they are all made of the same ingredients in the same factory with very slight changes. Giving the illustrations of "choice". Like political parties?

Why pay the vw premium to get a Ford van......I don't think I will be buying one.

It’s a pile of crap. Ford has had to make constant changes to there engines constantly due to ongoing issues. Also that touchscreen only means of controlling ac ,heating etc is a driving hazard

engine from Ford- all I need to hear really. How can VW put that horrible wet belt engine is mad. At least they could have got a better engine as the body is nice. I bet they are all just gearing up towards electric-only vans. The platform looks like it is made for EV really.

Guys your mouths are saying one thing but your faces are struggling to mask your and everyone else’s feelings. I’ve had vw vans from 1990. 2.4 LT PETROL a range of diesel ones, t 25 pick ups and vans, t4s and now my t5.1 you pointed out that vw has expressed THIS IS NOT A T7. But a new transporter. Looks like they are disengaging the “t 6.1 and previous as this is no longer going to be legendary. I found it almost patronising the new pick up is only vw. It looks cool but really! 99% of hard core transporter owners have and need the van.
