islandgun Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Was thinking of leasing another van in March, Transits are made in Turkey I think, would it be a reasonable to assume that a new import will cost more in March than now ?

London Best Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Get one next March and it will likely have been stood in a compound somewhere in U.K. for two years. We have a storage depot near our village which has acres and acres of new Vauxhall’s all standing outdoors. Some have been there years.

bornfree Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Until 4 year's ago I always ran transit's. But I bought a Citroen relay it's now on 98,000 miles and it's been faultless the best van I've ever had. No rust showing yet and all my previous transit's had rust in 3 years. And it was £4000 cheaper than an equivalent ford or Mercedes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

team tractor Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 Transits are a 12 week wait currently as a mates just received his but he did order a spec. vw are a 12 week wait also but 10% import tax came in this month . because of the import tax you’ll find lots on order already to miss the hike so you might be lucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Clavata Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 All transits including connect are made in kocaeli. Ive got a connect l2 due mid Jan. Prices on used vans gone mental due to rise in online shopping and resulting delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted December 23, 2020 Report Share Posted December 23, 2020 Cut a deal on leasing it Nath, you should get a much better price. Or look at buying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
