    Toyota has gotten together with the PSA group to make a new van for the city, the Proace City is meant to get Toyota into parts of Ireland that they have never before tried to do. This smart little van is bigger than most of the competition and is really worth a look. There are some problems

    Nice to see a small van with three seats . More small vans should do this it makes it more practical especially for a small business or small family who needs to move things around everyday. I like this small van alot .

    I love small vans, I've previously always had a van, caddy, partner, berlingo (same thing) and my wife had a car. It was a private van, with private tax and insurance. Tax was a little more, but the insurance was cheaper so it balanced out. About 5 years ago when it came time for renewal no one insure me, I was told I now needed to have a business to have a van. I had vans for 12+ years, never had a accident and I've never gotten points. AXA did quote me something like €1000, but when I previously was paying closer to €200, I just couldn't justify it. Sold the van and bought a Corolla saloon, which now has the rear seats down all the time and I had to buy a small trailer too for bigger bits/coal etc. Not sure why all the insurance mafia decided to get together and go after this segment. As I'm now paying about the same insurance for myself and 4 passengers when before I was insured to have only one passenger.

    Hi bob i had the citroen version for 10 years and it was only of the road once in its 140,000 mile life great value not just a great van, My only criticism would be the gearbox like you said, sometimes changing down from 5th or 3rd it would disappear into no-mans land! and no 6th gear in my opinion it really needed one.

    Greetings from Poznań, Poland, the city where VW makes the CADDY - a great van imho. I have only driven the passenger versions but the quality of the cabin was top notch

    @marks-0-0 Před 3 lety +1

    Totally agree about owning vans Bob.
    I don't need one for work anymore but still own a van/camper.
    I've just bought an older Berlingo passenger van aswell which will be my main car.
    Its got all the room of a van but with the seats and all the finishing trim.
    I went for a petrol because I've decided to not own a diesel again. I want to move to an E Berlingo in the future.

    I've driven a partner for years the window demist has been like that for years. If you do alot of driving it starts to hurt the back. The pedals seem to be a bit off centre

    You can get a passenger version with a 130bhp diesel and and automatic gearbox but not in GB or Ireland, which is a shame really. Not sure why Toyota doesn't sell those versions here(?)

    Had it a Toyota engine/gearbox/electronics? Thanks for great review.
    I'd guess I'd buy a new 2021 Caddy lwb, mid spec. for €21.5k inc. VAT. What would be the better van in your opinion?
    VW now has twin dosing adblue, will that use twice the amount of adblue?

    Greetings from Latvia.
    I got a question about exterior mirrors. There is option that they automaticly folds after locking a car. Is there any option to disable this option, because I am affraid, that in winter after icy rain mirrors will frost and damage a mechanism. I tried all options couldn't find to turn off.
    Any advice.

    Hi Bob, why are EV vans so expensive? I get that the batteries can be dear, surely vans are cheaper to make than passenger vehicles?

    • @cros13
      @cros13 Před 3 lety

      The battery is the majority of the cost of the vehicle. Low production volumes also increase costs. And the EV van market isn't very competitive yet, enough buyers to saturate production capacity don't mind the cost.

    • @timjefferson1886
      @timjefferson1886 Před 3 lety

      @@cros13 That doesn't explain away the cost of production of the van body and chassis when the EV van is using an I.C.E. van's body-shell (as are most).
