Its not too bad at 26.5mpg, haven't managed to set the brakes alight yet as have with other vans, had a 140hp nissan primastar before that did around 29mpg, but this ones the extra long wheelbase one so can get 3m pipe in the back.
Think they do a v8 petrol Brabus one, better start saving......

Business partners got a 115 vito and if i'm not paying attention theres not much in it, 120 got an auto box so by the time its dropped a couple of cogs i've got some catching up to do, plus i don't like gunning it from a start as the tyres are £700 a set (after a balded the last ones in 16k miles) Originally Posted by chillerman2006

Nice, i do like the way the vito's drive and comfy too and the way you can step the rear out on round abouts Originally Posted by monkey spanners
